Fall Break came and went; it was so nice to be back in Houston for a while. Overall, the break was just too short. I can't wait til Christmas.

I'm so glad that this semester is half-over. I can't believe myself when I say this, but I want the winter to come. Because with the winter come my friends, the people who care, and hopefully a new living situation. That'd be nice. Pray for me.

Saw a counselor the day before yesterday; made me feel better for a while, but yesterday night I had another tough spot. I'm sure of what brought it on, but that doesn't make it better. Oh well. It was nice to get the support I got last night from Amanda and Mary... made me miss you girls a lot! :-/

Halloween costumes? Bah. I hate the social pressure to dress up for something that I have very little interest in celebrating. Maybe I'm just lazy and don't wanna bother finding one ;)

Later.

What a day.

Nothing and everything has been going on for the past week or so. I feel full of contradictions lately. I feel sad and happy at the same time, I feel like I hate my roommate and I care about her a lot at the same time, etc. I guess the opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference (I heard that said somewhere. It's cool.) I don't know what's up with me.

I can't wait for the next nine days to go by. I need to go home and rest a bit. I have so much work hanging over me, even though I am actually days ahead of schedule in completing most of my assignments. Hmm. I'm tired of football season. I really want a normal weekend so I can have all of Saturday to good off and I can work on Sunday without feeling exhausted. Perhaps next semester.

I've been thinking about how hard it is really compare relationships, yet at the same time it's pretty easy to do it. And I've come to some conclusions about relationships and maturity in general. I won't bore anyone with the details, especially since they may upset some people since I'm disagreeing with what they've chosen for themselves, but I find it all really interesting.

College really is a bubble. I feel like so many college students have no idea what the real world is like, and they have no business making life-altering decisions at this age. Too bad the whole point of college is to get us a job and into the "real world." What a joke. For a minute or two today I considered doing "Teach for America," but that idea quickly passed.

Read Aaron Karo's ruminations. He's hysterical. I love his sense of humor.

Later.
