spring break: grown-up style

i never really thought i would miss spring break or even really realize that i didn't get one... until i realized that everyone isn't here. and even the people that have "real" jobs took off out of town too. regardless, i am determined to have a good week. it started with dancing and 42 friday night. saturday was dan's wedding and seeing family in la grange. i spent all day sunday with sarah and the erins. yesterday was beautiful, i enjoyed a run to the park. tonight i will be hanging with ams and the new art group. hopefully i'll come up with a few other lovely things to do (other than just studying) this week with everyone gone. and then saturday should be a fun gathering of sorts.

i've noticed that i have been a little cranky lately. ornery if you will. i'm still trying to figure out what it's stemming from or why i'm sporting the 'tude... so if you have been a innocent recipient of this, i apologize greatly. once i figure out the source, i'll let you know.

i can't believe it's march. i mean really, where did february go? two months left in austin. that's it! i can't comprehend where this year has gone. i'm frantically trying to evaluate what i've experienced, in hopes to rationalize this time off. cause quite frankly, i don't know if it was worth it. or at least that is what i am asking myself. how did i prosper and grow from the year off from school? how have i changed as a person? did this accomplish what i thought it would? what will happen in my last two months? am i ready to do another summer at camp? am i ready to move to st. louis and start my master's? God, i hope so. i pray so.

so if you see me around, acting ornery or looking deep in thought... i probably am. but ask me how i'm doing, how i'm really doing. cause knowing me, i'm bottling up something that will just make so much more sense once i can verbalize it and that might just be the "spring break" i need.

Okay, sorry I didn't have a new post. I'm honestly working on it, but it's just not ready yet. It's very long and it is the journal from our honeymoon, complete with pictures. Stay tuned!
