Carless and Snow White
http://www.nicolysis.net/2010/02/carless-and-snow-white/
I think I’m too dependent on my car. Even though I don’t use it quite so much in college, I feel like I’ve lost something. Really no big deal; brother’s just taking it to San Antonio for the time being since he totaled his car. He needs it more than I do, and we’re siblings, so we help each other out. Real talk. I’m really excited about going to Austin next year, especially now that I have the living situation worked out. It might be cramped: five people in one apartment, but we’ll manage. It will be much less costly than living on campus, and the half-mile walk will be good for me. It snowed a lot on Thursday. A lot in North Texas standards; maybe you heard about it. It was the most snow I have ever seen at once. Unfortunately, I was ill-equipped for the snow, and I still had to go to class. I was a little miserable trudging through the snow in jeans, a sweatshirt, and a pair of Converse. My physics test was postponed so I went back to my dorm and saw a couple of smart people outside the dorm. “You put the Wal-Mart bag over the shoe.” Alas, it was too late for me. Then the school closed down at 3:00pm. The damage was done. Friday’s classes were cancelled, too, but I don’t have classes Fridays, so no bigs. I spent the rest of Thursday watching Metalocalypse. What a great show. I think I slept straight through Friday – not even a little bit of studying (which would have been prudent) or eating. I didn’t feel that my hunger was worth a walk through the snow. I did, however, tend to my car a little bit by removing the five inches of snow that sat on the windshield. My brother laughed at me when I was late picking him up from the train station on Saturday. We went home and had dinner as a family, they watched the Olympics while I worked, napped, and did laundry, and then yesterday morning my dad drove me back to school. This was probably my most eventful weekend since school started. It was nice seeing everybody, but I hate to say that it didn’t feel particularly special. My first tests of the semester this week, and first English essay – feeling a little uneasy about all of this. I have no doubt I’ll be fine, but this knowledge cannot help my insecurities. I really don’t know how to end an entry. I hate writing.

Hooray friendship (cheered up)!
http://www.nicolysis.net/2009/06/hooray-friendship-cheered-up/
Saturday I hit another car, and have since been feeling ashamed and inadequate. Gino suggested that going to Linnea’s graduation party (Sunday) would cheer me up; I had previously decided not to so as to deprive myself of fun. I tend to punish myself; it’s the easiest way for me to feel just. But then my mom and dad suggested I go, too, so I went to Linnea’s around 5:15. I am so glad I went; the company was very therapeutic. It was basically a couple hours of reminiscing on twelve years of my life. I felt very happy afterwards. Even if I did feel like a terrible person – the things I taught my friends in our prepubescent years shows how unfit I am to be around children. Twelve year olds are not supposed to know things I knew when I was twelve, and for some reason I was naïve enough to think sharing such knowledge with my peers was appropriate. It’s a good thing everyone turned out okay. This summer is going to be amazing. I wrote out a list of goals, and I’m really excited about tackling them. It’s really a shame that I have trouble facing each day, though. Each morning, I remind myself of the things I have to look forward to. Do you see where I’m getting at? I really ought to be less stupid.
