day 2

So here I am, day 2 and still writing. Well, at least I will have 2 consecutive days. We'll see tomorrow if 3 will make the cut.

I am really excited about this weekend, but I don't feel as excited as I should be. I'm so happy about seeing all of my friends that I haven't seen in 2 years, and really getting to party college style. But still, I don't feel as excited as I think I should be. I don't know if it's that I only have a few close friends that I'm REALLY excited to see, or that I'm sad campus won't have the same feel to it since it will be the first weekend of fall break, or if I'm just jumping ahead to far, and not excited because once this is over, I don't have anything to look forward to for a long time.

A month and a half ago, here is how I got through time and loneliness:

"well, it's ok, alumni is soon! I'll be in Grinnell Oct. 15th. That's only a month and a half away"

"And after alumni then I get to see Jimmy! In December, thats only 2 months after alumni".

But now that alumni is almost here, and I'm facing two months until the next thing I'm looking forward to, two months is feeling like a really long time.

So I guess what I'm saying is, I need more things to look forward to to help pass the time until I get to see Jimmy. I'm open to suggestions....
