I guess that and I think there's some value in seeing what's going on with other people, because you can learn a lot about life and avoid a lot of mistakes if you see what other people are going through. But either way.
In all, this week was pretty good. I had a test that I'm not so sure about, but the stress level is pretty moderate right now. The sun finally came out! We went out and layed aroud and talked and generally procrastinated on LIFE for a couple hours this afternoon and things were wonderful. And now it's all rainy and damp and grey outside and so I'm going to curl up with a hot mug of tea and some movies and homework for the rest of the night. It's been awhile since I've taken downtime and it's going to be good for me. My trip to Phoenix is coming up in about 2 and half weeks and I am completely psyched!!! Hopefully I'll have some sunscreen by then so I don't turn into a complete (Italian) tomato.
But in all seriousness, I'm getting to that point where a retreat from people and school and Pittsburgh is going to be really helpful for me. I've done a lot of thinking in the last month or so about what I really want from life, and relationships, and I've come to some surprising conclusions about myself. (Some of them were nudged along by Josh and other conversations I've had...) I'm looking forward to that time away from everything to really look deep inside myself and really confront everything inside and work things out. Not that I have a lot of "issues" or anything dramatic like that, but there were a lot of things that happened with Tom (and other relationships) and the breakup that just reminded me of how important it is to really step back and "take a breath" (in the words of my Dad).
Also, someone remind me to buy a digital camera sometime soon so I can actually post pictures here. There were like a bajillion things I wanted to take pics of today and couldn't.
