All Good Things...

So, classes are over. I only have finals to get through, and hopefully I'll handle those okay. Today was a good day. Brian and I went down to the Waterfront and had dinner, and went shopping. Then we stopped at Rita's on the way back for Italian Ice and it was yummy. Then I printed out my (last!) 202 assignment and tried to do some studying for 211.

I have a feeling that the next week and a half is going to go by a lot more quickly than I really want it to, which is a huge shame. I've gotten a lot better this year about enjoying each moment as it comes though, which is good - and I *am* really looking forward to the summer. My job will hopefully be fun and I'm looking forward to being close to my family again. I guess it's always easy to find things wrong with the present and to wish for them to be better, but I think the only way to be happy is to try to look past the things that really can't be changed and focus on what's immediate.

That being said, timing is still unfortunate. It's hard to really get to know someone from far away, and it's really easy to drift apart. So much of knowing a person comes from just *doing* things together - just getting to know a person's personality and who they really are inside doesn't need words so much as experience. That's true at least for me, since I don't tend to be a huge talker.

It's been a few months since I've been in a relationship, and I'm slowly easing back into the way it feels to really care for someone. Slowly. It's been a long time since there's been anyone that I can really be myself around, and it's a good feeling. It's good to just be ...comfortable...around a person. So, things are good. Life is good. People are good.

Exams...well. That's what the weekend is for, right? :-P
