back at school! woohoo!
Sep. 19th, 2004 07:16 pmso i'm back in sd, which is quite lovely on the one hand, but nerve-wracking on the other. i'm in an odd mood right now...i don't do that well with change, and this year promises a lot of it. but at the same time, i'm excited about everything...all the new possibilities. my parents have left and i'm by myself, facing a load of boxes and junk. it'll be nice when i'm all unpacked, but i just don't have the energy right now. short break, and then i'll go back to doing it.
random thought: it's weird how hurtful words can be. even if it's just a little thing, it can really hurt, and i tend to remember little things even when i don't want to. one time when i was with a friend and a fire truck went by, sirens screaming. my rabbi once said that we should say a short prayer for them to get there on time every time we hear sirens, so i did. i mentioned this to my friend, all happy with myself, and she just brushed me off, saying that she'd always done that, no big deal. now, i know she didn't mean to be hurtful, but that's how it came out, and the worst part is that everytime i hear sirens now, i remember to pray and then i remember being brushed off for it and it hurts. silly, i know. blah anyhow.
ok, off to finish unpacking...must put on beatles music and cheer up.
