i'm in love with {thursdays}.


registered for classes at 12:01 am. excited to start some new things, though it feels like i've just begun here. i'm in love with the mysteries of {time}.

went to bed last night at 4:30 am. i always take intermitting naps. i always enjoy getting up early more when i have gone to bed at such a late hour. i'm in love with {sleep}.

i am slowly and subtly trying to slide back into the habits of high school: i've been asking my parents to call me and make sure i'm awake. it feels great. hardly beneficial to me. but what nostalgia to hear my dad's voice at 6:30 am. nothing says childhood more. i'm in love with {home}.

love school. love it. can't imagine being anywhere but here. have been spending a lot of times in the basement at the mail center. love it there. would and could spend all day there. plopped down on a soft bench to write love notes and sad ones. i'm in love with {corresponding+sending+bundling+licking+stamping+waiting}.

officially declared my major as pre-comms. onward and upward. i'm in love with {having a plan}.

have tests+papers+books+research+more reasearch to do before thanksgiving. i'm in love with {positive stress}.

first experience this week and today witnessing everyone so extremely excited to just go home. a new slate. a break and breather. this anxious unity hazes all over campus. scurrying to get it all done just to be able to breathe for a week. i'm in love with {holiday}.

cleaning check. out of control. racing to do a mound of dishes+scrub the tub+remove skeletons from the closet. we passed. i must repeat to myself that i will do my roommates dishes gladly. i will do it gladly. i will do it gladly. i'm in love with {pruned fingers}.

freshman academy took a fieldtrip to a printing-press museum. an awe-filled wonder. loved it. gutenberg was a genuis. pure genius. wish we all could take a trip together to this quaint museum. i'm in love with {togetherness+innovation}.

cannot avoid a sadness for a dear and admirable friend. how must we deal with sadness. i'm in love with {optimism}.

i'm in love with {thursdays}.
