So it's been a full week since getting back from Seattle. And I don't really want to recap my part of the weekend because it's similar to everyone else's.
What I do want to express is how it was (is) incredibly hard for me to get back into the swing of things.
I'm a human being of change. I love new places, I love new people and the moment I slow down into the rhythmic pattern of mundane idleness, I want to shoot myself.
I came back from hanging out with some of the most chill people in the world, only to return to 15 credit hours of school, 20 hours of (unpaid) internship, a bitchy supervisor and a shit load of backed up homework. Now, 15 credit hours may not seem like a lot, but it is in grad school. I'm back to my slow but steady week of monotony that is written out for me. And I have no choice but to follow. (No, I am not quitting school, as of today I have 211 more days until graduation. Not to mention the thousands of dollars I'd be wasting. I'm getting that stupid piece of paper that says 'I R SMURT' whether it kills me or not.)
Maybe this is me just venting, but how are the rest of you adjusting to life after WCG? I'm sure many of you had gf/bfs, families, well paying exciting jobs to go back to? Am I the only one who's feeling so emo about this?
Ugh. Ok, time to finish up more useless schoolwork.

After those 211 days are gone, which will go faster than you think you'll be a very happy person. What's ur major?

Same with me in college. Bombed a German exam, did poorly on another, and have two papers to write. Was totally worth it. At least I'm on my school's ultimate frisbee / racquetball team so I get to travel around the northeast of the US to different tournaments. Next weekend Albany, NY! =) But until then, boring shit --;

I'm going into education with a School Counseling degree - but I don't think I want to go into that field at all. My undergrad was in English and Psychology.

Story of my life susie. I am perpetually recovering from the night before Remember schooling isnt useless. Its to get a piece of paper that says youre smarter than the average bear so you get a higher salary. Very important

my uni is full of complete tossers so after meeting (or at least being around, as i barely interacted with anyone after my nightmare drinking session) so many cool people i just wanna quit uni and spend some time and money travelling. jetlag has hit me incredibly hard and i've got up at 7pm, 5pm and 3pm respectively these last 3 days since getting back home, however i do have a few things to keep me going... i'm back in my hometown, mansfield, right now, and i just came back from the pub after meeting up with a few friends from mansfield an hour or so ago. also i'm going down to london tomorrow with 2 real life friends and 1 guy i met from starcraft (who i've seen irl 2 or 3 times) to see a couple of bands, so that should be cool too. after that though i'm gonna be incredibly bored and will be in the same boat as you i guess, boring uni, surrounded by people i don't really like and lots of work to catch up with. i think meeting my friends from mansfield today has helped me a little, easing back into life in shitty ol' england. when monday comes and i'm back into the routine i hope to be ready to finally meet some cool people form my uni and get everything back on track.

I miss you guys a lot  I initially didn't even want to go, wasn't looking forward to it - but I'm so so glad that I went. I really hope to see you all again sometime in the semi-near future.

lilsusie, look down the road from now things will be brighter and better. Do for what you need to do not as people tell you to do. you and only you have control of your life and the tasks ahead. buckle down the hatches and study study study. Remember a girl who has her head on her shoulders straight is far more adorable then a nitwit that has no idea what to do in her life. Further more I think we all miss you as well!! Mondi probably most of all seeings how he used that easy button with you
