ooh! this is fun.

look! a giraffe!

hahahahaha oooohohohohoh hehehehehe. that's just what came to mind. see the giraffe? see him? he's purdy. he's eating all the leaves off of my tree.

what can i say? it's finals and i don't care. i'm moving in approximately 5 and a half days and I have yet to start packing. yesssssir.

wish me luck, or freaking come help. my new apartment is amazing, and my new roommate is pretty funny too. we talked tonight about making snow angels in our little backyard because she's going to be so enthralled with seeing snow (she's moving to chicago from birmingham, alabama). she's in for an icy surprise.

anyhoooooo. update when i'm not feeling so sillllllly.

oh, what a crazy time it is.

it seems as though i'm updating, really, just to shout out to the world that i do not like being isolated in my apartment, furiously typing away at a paper that i will be done with tomorrow and forgotten about the next day. i do not like being disconnected from the joy i feel about life and the ability to live it, but rather am confined to a small space with no opportunity to play and experience with people i like spending time with. i do not like feeling depressed and alone with no relief in the near future--especially since i am not a depressive person at all, and loneliness has a hard time being dignified when you take its time away with useless bullshit like german skits, sociology papers, and last-minute tests.

ahhh. breathe. this will be over soon, and i can go back to the ease of living in the moment. comparatively speaking, it seems a lot easier to not worry about everything i have to do--but rather focus on the time that is now, being silent and counting every beat of my heart as the first.
