summer is upon us
Well, it has been a while. School's over and summer is probably going to be over far too soon, though it has so far been a good one (ignoring the one blight of going to the Shanty Shack in upstate NY with my family for a week). Today I saw my schedule for next year, which is making college and Pratt and the ambiguous presence of architecture in the future very very real. I am also panicking slightly, as the classes we take in college are apparently much, much longer than in high school.
I'm only slightly terrified, being only a slight coward. I mean. I never really thought past high school up til now. I had no idea I'd ever survive applying to college--mostly cause movies make it SUCH A BIG DEAL. (It really isn't, you don't have to be a rocket scientist or join 9506859 clubs to get into a school, unless maybe you think you'll die if you don't get into an Ivy in which case I recommend just skipping the whole process altogether.)
And now here I am, going to college. Er. Woo. I don't know how I feel (except for that slightly terrified part). I love the friends I have now. I don't see how anyone I could meet in college could be as interesting. Perhaps I will live the penitent life of a college hermit, and my amusing but lonely adventures will be written into a fine literary work of the era.
Hmm. I'll write more about summer adventures when it is not 1:30 AM.

also aren't colleges relatively nonthreatening once you're done with everything!? :D i mean, i didn't leave my hometown so maybe i can't really talk, but it sure was a whole lot less than it sounded like it was going to be.
congratulations on being a few steps closer to doing cool things with your life! let's be college hermits together!!

Yeah college for like a month back there seemed easy as pie. But now that I've seen my schedule I have brand new dread. Also, as I haven't been assigned a dorm yet, I might end up being a college hobo instead of a college hermit.
College hermobos alone together!
