I've been hanging out with a lot of SGNY people lately. It has been fun. I never expected to really kick it with people I met on the internet, but being as how I did date a guy I met on CL, I guess I have no excuses. Plus they're cool.

Unfortunately my week off is over. I did jack shit. I also saw none...

I literally did not think I would make it through this program. I was on the verge of quitting and/or cutting myself every day. Now that I look back on it, I don't know why.

my first day in a long time with no tears (on my part, not on theirs. i get very emotionally involved). they are almost done writing their essays and you can actually taste the excitement. hooray for investment!!!

man life goes on. i did NOT think i would make it through this month. it looks like soon i'll be a real life eighth grade ela teacher, and hopefully i will have an aparetment in harlem.

I AM GRADUATED AND I AM SCARED AS FUCK.

the only thing i hate more than homework is cleaning
the only thing i hate more than cleaning is packing
the only thing i hate more than packing is moving

it's a bitch to try to have to do all of them at once.

i will likely be out of communication for the next few days. all i can say is that when it rains it pours, and i have no urge to look at naked chicks for awhile. i should be done crying by tuesday or so.

rip s.b. i'll miss you lots.

love,
