Reflections and mindless thoughts

2003-05-01 @ 3:19 p.m.


Well, finally the month of April is finally over and done with. I've done some reflecting today and its been quite interesting. I've spent the past couple of hours going back through my email reading letters I've written and recieved to/from people. This stuff goes back to my freshman year of college...so just about three years ago. Its weird. The events don't seem that long ago. I've caught myself saying 'on yeah! I remember that.' But whats crazy is how I've grown up since then. Mentally and emotionally. I don't exactly know when it all changed. Maybe I haven't changed at all. I still do some really stupid things, but not that often.

Its hard to explain, but today I am feeling like I was feeling when I was single. Not that I've forgotten that I'm currently in a relationship. Its just been so long since I've had my girlfriend with me. I've forgotten the physical elements of a relationship and how good it feels to have. Honestly, I have forgotten and I wonder what things will be like when she comes back. Now Madeleine's arriving back to the states in thirteen days and for some strange reason, it still feels like an eternity.

I'm so used to her being gone. The mind is a crazy thing to have. The first couple of months I would get very sad, but then I was fine by mid March or so. Then April hit and I had many things to think about. I still missed Madeleine a great deal and that made dealing with the things that happened harder because I wished she was here to help me. But she's done a fine job trying to keep in touch with me whenever she can. I couldn't ask for more than what she's done to help me, being so far away.

So I guess all I'm saying is that it'll be a little strange when I see Madeleine again, but after awhile it should become normal again. I know the flow of life in these respects, but I just thought I'd jot some of the things I've been feeling lately.

School's still going wonderfully. I didn't think I was this smart. I'm pretty sure that I got an A on my Biology lab final (the same lab where I got a C on the midterm). I got my psychology test back today and got a 96%. My papers are both in their beginning stages, but I know exactly what to write for my english paper and have an outline ready for my eastern civ paper. So I'm ready to whip these babys out and be ready to go. When I get these papers done, the rest of next week will be smooth sailing...right into finals week! How convinent ;)

Time is flying so fast.

I helped my dad plant our garden yesterday and that was fun. My dad has a great garden and he takes a lot of pride in it. I want to have something like that when I get older. It really is fun helping my dad with stuff. Man, I'm getting so emotional now, excuse me.

I learned how to fix a tire in a real situation the other day too, so I've been learning a lot this week. HAHA.

This weekend should be packed with many things to do. We're taking a hall picture on saturday and then having a senior dinner on sunday. Plus I have to write my eastern civ paper.

I've gone swimming three times this week and I'm going with Joe tomorrow. I have to get a hair cut because its out of control and my mom always tells me to cut it when I come home.

I'm tired so I'm going to take a nap for an hour and then get going on my english paper. Thats what I'll be doing for the rest of the night. Honestly, I'm kind of excited to be writing it because its about an intersting subject. So I doubt I'll have little trouble getting it done.
