< / > Reading Week May 03, 2006 *~* 6:42 p.m. I miss home. I'm going to trainings for my summer job and finalizing housing arrangements and getting ready to pack up and move, and I'm suddenly thinking, "what have I done? I like being home." And I do, but I have to remember that no one will be home with me- everyone is staying in their cities this year and historically, summers in Plano haven't been too great. And I'm excited to be in Portland this summer. I'm the Dorm Host for summer conferences, so that means that when groups of whoever rent out the college for days/weeks/even months at a time, I'll be in charge of making sure they can check in, get their rooms and keys, and then stay happy for the rest of their stay. Lots of new people, both working with and taking care of. And the weather looks to be beautiful. Even after two years, the color of the sunlight through brilliant green leaves gets to me. This is a beautiful city (when it's not being ugly, cold, gray, and wet). So I'm excited, relatively calm, and generally good. I've cut scary movies out of my life for the past month or so and don't intend to watch any more, so hopefully an overactive imagination won't get to me. Caleb might be my roommate. I have plenty of schoolwork to do, but none so daunting that I'm freaking out. That said, if I don't start reading and being productive by tomorrow, I'll do it then. |
