To be honest, I really didn't think summer would be anything like a normal summer this year. These past few weeks, however, have been completely summer-like. There's no other way to describe them. Staying out until 4, just because.. Slurpee runs.. Rave parties.. Dodgeball.. 90 degree weather.. Mosquito bites.. Bonfires.. Fireworks.. Gotta love these summer days.

I've been spending a lot of time with rather unexpected people, and I'm learning to appreciate people I've typically had a tough time with. It's funny, after high school and all, who you end up hanging out with...

Anastas' tribal cyberpunk rave was last night and it was a pretty good time. I didn't drink, because I don't, but it didn't really matter. I was shocked at how many people there I knew. RON WAS THERE! Ron is so funny. It was so nice catching up with him. It's weird to think that the summer we spent all our time with them was two years ago.

I do not believe that "absence makes the heart grow fonder" at all. I'm not saying that in a negative way, I honestly think that the more seperated you are from someone, the less attachment you feel to them. At least that's how it is for me. I like things that way. No attachments...

My film class is over; I'm just waiting for my final grade, but it should be an A, which was difficult to motivate myself for. I finish my astronomy class tomorrow. Both classes flew by. It feels like I still have so much to learn! I secretly love astronomy. I think it's sooooo cool... Seriously. Next, I'm taking Philosophy and History of the Contemporary World. In the fall, I'm taking Intro to Econ, Music Appreciation, History of the Early Modern World, Speech, and IPC. Econ is the only class that isn't online, and it's an hour-long night class twice a week. I can handle that.

Once I finish fall semester, I'll be done with my gen ed requirements, and I should be going back to Spring Arbor. Of course, that's completely unofficial; I haven't reapplied or reenrolled or anything. It's just my plan. I can't really explain why I'm going back; I just have to. I know I have to. I'll try to explain later. I know it isn't going to be easy, and I know very few people are going to understand, but I have to. It's where I'm supposed to be, which sounds crazy, but it is.

Paul and I are supposed to go to Missouri Sunday and come back Thursday, which I think is kind of a waste, but Paul cannot sacrifice any more of his precious time with his wifey, so whatever. Jake is going to Seattle on the fourth of July, and I am seriously contemplating going with him, even if he is going to hang out with his WoW buddies (hahahahahahhahaha). I just desperately want to go to Seattle. Maybe someone else will come and we can wander the city together. But really, I probably won't go.

Alright, I'd better get to sleep. I keep sleeping until 2 in the afternoon, which is ridiculous... Of course, Marissa slept until 4:30 today and was an hour late for our plans, so maybe I shouldn't feel bad. G'night all.
