Well, I'm back at school and I've just finished my first 3 days of classes. So far things look pretty promising, academically speaking. Of course, they always do during the first week. I have 2 mind-crushingly boring classes: one in chemistry and one in government. They shouldn't be that hard, though. I have an art class, which is quite a change for me...I've never taken any art here before, and I'm not used to being graded on stuff like that. We'll see how it goes. I also have a music class, which is very fun so far, and a psychology class which I like (except that it is early in the morning, and when it's 15 degrees out like it was this morning, it's hard to want to go to class). Bill is in 2 of my classes, and I find that I'm running into him everywhere on campus...usually we never see each other. Madeline is in one of my classes too...cool! In fact I have friends in every class except for art.

On a personal level, I am still trying to recover from last semester's stress. As I briefly mentioned, a friend of mine died at the end of last semester, and everything went crazy from then on. Thomas and Chandler did a good job of helping me through it, but they can't be with me all the time, and when I'm alone at night is when things bother me the most. I miss him a lot. When I was home over Christmas break, I would run into old high school friends and invariably they would say, "Oh, I'm SO sorry to hear about Jason...I know you guys used to date..." and they would go on and on, and just when I thought I was feeling a little better, they would make me feel bad again. I know they meant well though.

Things are still unresolved with Chandler and me...our academic schedules are complete opposites this semester, and they don't allow us much time to see each other. He came to my room at 2:30 AM last night (don't ask me why), and that was the first time I've talked to him in a while. I think I need some time to get used to him again...I haven't seen him in a month, so I'm a little shy around him now. I'm always like that when I haven't seen people in a while.

I have to go to class now (ugh)...I will try to post again very soon because there is more news to fill you all in on!
