Welcoming myself back
Apr. 20th, 2006 05:54 pmWell I was planning on using this fairly regularly at the beginning of the school year, way back in September or something as was my first and only previous post. I've decided that since I've started viewing a number of people's journals in the HP fandom I might want to start using my own. Not that I'm exactly interesting or anything.
Ok so it's been awhile since I last posted any that was in the beginning of my first semester. There's now about 3 weeks left of the second semester and I will soon be heading home for a nice relaxing 3 months off. I can't even begin to describe how happy I am about this. And I just found out yesterday that my aunt and two cousins who I haven't seen in a year and two, respectively, are coming for a vist in June!!!.
As far as my impressions of college through the first year, well it's mixed to say the least. I'm convinced that the social aspects that are associated with the lifestyle are completely overrated. And maybe I'm just being uptight or something...which is something I would never associate with myself...but isn't the notion kind of ridiculous? I have nothing against drinking and I'm not saying I'll never partake...or haven't in the past...but there's a difference between having a drink with your friends at a bar or even just hanging out and getting completely smashed just because you think you can. I've probably made a lot of enemies with that statement but hell, who cares? Academically, it's 100% better than high school, but I'm still not a fan. But the way I look at it is that it's just something you've got to do...it's exactly like high school except it costs $30,000 a year.
Well I think I've been obscene enough for now. Until next time.
22 DAYS!!!!
