Yup. 2 days left until the Encounter. Still not sure how I feel...excited and anxious all at once. Should be fun, though.
It seems to me that many different things are all coming to a head right now, or at least, within the next monthish. All the little plotlines that make up my life are suddenly interesting...I just wish it didn't happen all at once. Makes it hard to focus on anything. On a good note, things do seem to be working out well. People involved seem happy, anyways, which is what counts, I guess.
Today I had a long talk with my sister for the first time in a while. I am continually amazed by how much more mature she is than I was at her age. I mean, honestally, she seems to think at a higher level overall than I did as a froshie. Go figure, girls do grow up faster. The most interesting part, though, is how much of myself I see in her, and how much I see missing. Where I have difficulty forging friendships, she is one of the most popular kids in her class. And not even mean to the other kiddies. Impressive, no? (yeah yeah yeah...enough of her praises. Gotta her her due, though.)
If any of you have a good friend at St. Mary's who could pass on advice to my sister about pros and cons of the school, it would be appreciated.
Another thing I have decided: strong doses of loud music and a nap are the best therapy on earth. Seriously, they cure all bad feelings. Try it sometime.
