First day of school=Wednesday=good.
I'm most excited for University Band. I'll be playing my alto sax. :)
My journalism classes will probably be the most work, although World Music Cultures will also require effort. (Amazing, I know. Classes that require effort? Inconceivable.)
Our new roommate, Jennifer, is really nice. She's from California and we were both born in the same year. (She's two months older.)
I got myself invited to another Space Center mission, this one with a bunch of people from my major. I'm still not quite sure how I managed it; I can barely remember all their names but somehow amidst my eternal confusion they've gotten to know me enough to like me. Pulling my head out of the clouds long enough to talk to the people around me is my biggest challenge, but I'm working on it.
I stole another person's article again, accidentally. This time it was a feature by Matt Livingston when the Daily Universe got mixed up and gave me credit for it. Life is anything but dull, eh? Who'd've thought I'd be an accidental plaigarist two times over?
Learning to focus on others is a gift that requires conscious effort. Grandma Taylor was a master of it and was loved by anyone she met in under five minutes. I'll never be my mother, but I can help others sense my caring even when my insides are very uncomfortable while I'm straining to focus. Looks like you're moving in a direction to become "other" centered.
ReplyDeleteAh, my wayward eldest, can't you plagiarize someone on the New York Times best seller list and get the fame and financial backing, too? :) Jus' sayin.' You at least owe Matt a look of understanding. Just be sure he's an RM, trustworthy and handsome [and do your hair up that day (wink)].
