Today is Perfect.
Woke up with friends who all seem to have varying opinions of their college experience from liking it to loving it, to some of the previous freshman/sophomores who are still at Madeira. (Enjoy it as much as you can--you'll miss it so!) Myself not having done up a summary of the fall 2006 semester, remain largely ambivalent about CNU. I vaguely remember thinking to myself awhile back that I had made the right choice, but by Thanksgiving break I started crying when my dad took me back because I was hating it. But I'm remaining positive; I made lots of mistakes last semester (although academically I finished quite well 3.78 GPA which qualifies as Dean's List) but my roommate and I get along quite well and I have a boyfriend who I love and who loves me back.
I do not party at college-- I went to one frat party, to see what it was like; sampled the drinks (I still don't like the alcohol) made friends, went home. However, I pulled at least 7 all nighters and my average sleep was 4 and 1/2 hours a night. Not a good amount! While I found I function quite well during the day--I can barely remember anything with the exception that I saw both school plays as well as Jesus Christ Superstar and Aida (absolutely amazing) that came to CNU. The NCAA Varsity Tennis Team that I am on, but hardly belong on, sucked up a lot of time too. I resolve for next year to reestablish tennis as a de-stressing time instead of constantly grating on myself on my inferiority to the other players.
Ballroom Dancing was my haven--I love dance, even with two left feet and dancing with really weird guys who are only there for the girls, I enjoy it. Tuesday nights of ballroom dancing club followed often by Tyler deciding I needed a coffee break and game of chess at Einsteins (our school coffee shop--serves Starbucks) really kept me going.
Well winter break is here and I'm having a good time. I feel much better and a lot more healthy (even though I have horrible allergies in the morning due to my cat) I'm seeing a lot of you friends, and I'm spending a good portion of my salary shopping at Delia's (which is where I work as a Fashion Representative.)
Even though 2007 has already started, these are my resolutions that I am still following.
) Be better to myself. (Which means more sleep and green veggies and less stress)
2) Get all As.
3) Be a better friend to many different people.
Today is a perfect day; I played tennis in shorts with Ashley Adams and then went running on Myers. The blue sky and something else that happened today has given me a lot of hope.
Love!
