Oh! So Those were Finals. Huh. Oh, my. ::deep breath:: Oooh, I can breathe... feels nice... Damn, my hand hurts. The English final was 22 short answer, 6 long answer, and 2 essay. My poor, poor right hand is even more deformed than usual. I want someone to do medical experiments on my hands. It's not enough that I know they're deformed. I want some kind of certified proof.
I realized sometime in the past few days that I really, really, really love my car. I still pretty much hate driving, but I really love my car. She was whining and wheezing from the cold, and I was all, "It's okay, it's okay..." and petting the dashboard as though it were alive... You know, I learned to drive in that car. I crashed it on the day of my first prom. I drove it to and from rehearsals for No Exit and The Author's Voice. I drove it to meet Eva at the airport when she came back from Germany. I drove it to my first day of work at my first job. I crashed it into Rob's mailbox, I drove to Stanford in it after dropping off Josh... I have so many memories that involve that car in some way or another... I drove it when I was in love, when I was lonely, when I was lost, literally and metaphorically. The more I thought about it, the more I realized how attached I was. Driving any other car just isn't the same.
The first thing I did when I was done with finals, I threw away my chem formula sheet. Then I went to visit each of my parents. Then I came back to my room, where Karissa was and currently is in the process of packing up her things. My R.A. asked me if I was moving out, and I confirmed that I was. I cleaned a little bit, then sat down at my computer to catch up on my comics and blogs. I called Seth. I started a bunch of downloads... and now... a month of freedom stretches before me.
So what does break hold for me?
The Buying and Making of Christmas Gifts. The Writing of Christmas Cards. Moving into Hamilton. Road Trip to Iowa. Lots of Reading (around 13 books). Lots of Writing. Improvements to Never Better. Planning and Promoting T.A.M.S.P. Coaching U-High Speech Lots of Movies (the ones I didn't have time to watch all semester). Shopping for a New Computer Playing The Sims. Parties, Gatherings, Fiestas, and Outings.
