Who wears short shorts?

Not Rowan anymore. It WAS sunny today, but no, the weather freakin' changed it mind. Back to the clouds and not-so-warmness. Back into the jeans with me.

Damn, I'm hungry. I wish the food here wasn't so gross all the time. Alan and I dubbed cafeteria food "poison." When we advise people on what to eat (cause the people we know will often ask) we usually use terms like "nearly/sort of/ almost edible/stomachable/tolerable." Salads you can usually count on for being consistently edible, but they're not quite filling. Fries are usually good. And greasy. And if you're really sick of everything, there's always cereal. Other than that, it's a gamble: there are usually three main dishes offered. Along the side there is pasta and pizza, and there is a dessert counter and ice cream. All of these vary in quality. Recently, since we are approaching the end of the school year, the food has been going straight downhill.

Dude, it's raining. Haven't seen that in a while.

Hmm, end of the year. My head knows this, but it hasn't really hit me yet. Though when I think aobut my life in the fall quarter, it seems very far away... Winter quarter's not too far away, but it would feel weird to go back to that schedule. Wow... I've nearly completed one full year in college. I remember back in high school thinking how scary it would be to go to college, to be seperated from the friends and people I knew, to have classes that were at a higher level of expectations, to have buttloads of homework, to be on my own... and here I am now, surviving just fine. I've kept in contact with my close friends, made new friends up here, I've adjusted to classes fairly well, and I've managed to get away with taking classes that didn't demand too much homework. With the exception of English. Bloody class. And being on my own... I do have a lot of dependancies left over, but being out here isn't so bad. If anything, being in this sort of community has improved my people skills a bit, so that I won't be so awkward and afraid in the presence of other people as I used to be. The end of the year... what will surviving three months at home be like?

There's something I'm not looking forwad to. For once, summer isn't gonna be so great. I've got no plans. You heard me, no plans. I don't have the means of taking a vacation anywhere, I've got no plans of being employed of doing any sort of internship (though it's something that's nagging me, from inside and outside sources), and most, if not all, of my friends will be occupied. *sigh* I fear being alone, bored, restless, and being driven insane by my younger siblings. What am I to do...

I've been drawn back on my full blogging streak again. I've updated this quite frequently all of the sudden. I check it multiple times a day to see whether I've gotten feedback. I check my friends' online journals to see any updates on their end. I can see we've all slowed down over time... I slowed WAY down, I know. But now it's if someone gave me a blog-caffeine pill. I'm a hyperactive blogger again... I've got to be patient though. I wonder how many people are reading my blog these days... probably not too many. Of all the entries I've entered recently, I've only gotten one response.

Speaking of which, my request for songs still stands. Gimme a song suggestion or two! NOW!!! ... Please? =)
