Saturday, second week of break
"Well, you are very attractive, and you are pressing up against me." - George, Scary Movie 3
There's something great about having someone else's hair in your eyes. It's annoying, sure, but it's a sign that you're in the midst of something, something worthwhile.
I know I wish I could comic, and play guitar, but I also wish I could rap. I don't even know the difference between rap and hip-hop. Is there one? I'm such a fake on some things.
Oranges are good. During finals week, I peeled an orange for the first time in years. I found out that even with an uncooperative, messy orange -that is, one from the dining hall- it is worth the trouble. Oranges are good.
I wish I had more time to send hanging with my friends, like in high school. I miss the Sioux Falls of my high school years.
It just struck me that I wish my first kiss hadn't been with Amanda.
I think I'm still afraid of girls. I may be less obvious about it, but it's still there. "I'm still a coward through to Z", to quote half of myself. Come to think of it, I'm wearing the new 'scared to death of chicks' Snoopy boxers I got for Christmas. Of course, writing this, I'm not thinking of all girls so much as I am of a particular girl. As bad as I may be with the concept of dating, the concept of not dating confuses the monkey out of me. I tell myself that I should probably ask her what she meant by that, but I probably won't. It seems so forward, so insensitive, and so very, very creey. Now, in general, I don't have a roblem with being insensitive and creepy, but I still know that it's no way to win a girl.
I want very much to go back home, because I know that I don't belong here, but I also want not to leave Sioux Falls without spending some time with each of my friends. Lisa was supposed to go to the show with me tonight, but she disapeared. At least we had a lunch together. Erin I haven't even talked to, and Shavon only briefly when I ran into her at Best Buy. Nate's living in Ames, Paul has headed out to Pierre to spend time with Ursula, and Shaina I haven't seen since she picked me up from the airport. Oh, yeah, and I just this afternoon got Sophie's and and Nicki LaFleur's respective phone numbers. I leave Tuesday, bright and early, and Sunday is going to be a family day, which I resent only mildy, and that possibly only because the plan is that we'll be watching The Green Mile together.
That leaves Monday, and maybe Sunday night. Monday night is the Spill Canvas concert, which I don't want to miss, and maybe I can bring someone with me. I'm hooking up with Shaina at noon. With any luck I can go to Powerhouse Sunday night, and hopefully see Shavon (and maybe others) there, and hang out with Erin afterward. Gena invited me to a card night Monday, but I have no idea when or where that is. As for Sophie or Nicki, who knows. At least I got to spend some time with Matt and see my cat, raight?
Say, I need to take me some pictures of that cat.
