i am not sure if i am in the right place. part of my absolutely loves georgetown--the school spirit and academics and the international atmosphere and just everything. It is so interesting and everyone wants to be here and my classes are challenging and it is is in a phenomenal location. but part of me keeps nagging me that this is not what i want at all. it is not real by any sense of the world--it is full of rich kids in the latest marc jacobs and ralph lauren fashions, getting completely wasted all weekend in order to feel important, and interesting. they take for granted the wealth and fortune of their lives and live to an excess- they are clearly bright and motivated kids but they seem to be so average, so fake. i worked so hard throughout high school and now i feel like i am dealing with many of the same people i have for that past four years. now don't get me wrong,pre-gaming in some kids dorm room or going party hopping is sometimes fun, but it just seems so pointless and repetitive, as if we need that to keep us going throughout the week.
i just feel like i want to do something raw and interesting, something that actually makes me feel like i am living and experiencing something new rather than being trapped in a bubble in the rich part of DC. I love it here, but part of me worries that i will become like them. and i know that this is a complete generalization because there are so many interesting kids here, and i just havent met them yet. but i myself am not interesting, so how can i meet any of those kids? i feel so run of the mill here, which is fine, but i just dont like what the mill has to offer, if that makes sense. i feel like casey's college experience is everything, where he is actually doing something new and real and interesting. i shouldn't follow the beaten path so much and try to excel and be ordinary. but then i feel like to achieve my desired goal in life i need to go to georgetown and be in sfs and do great things. i can't even think about it now.
i love it here, and its 4 am

it finally feels like fall. and as much as i want to hang on to summer, i really enjoy this weather. it is just making junior year go by faster. junior year is pretty good though. this weekend was fantastic.
last night jenn (by herself :)) picked me up at like 5:15 and we got on 95 north towards chenelle's restaurant. unfortunately, jenn did not realize that exit 20 is a 2-lane exit and we ended up getting off of it by accident. so we drive around providence for seriously 25 minutes looking for the entrance back onto 95 north... we eventually found the entrance we got on in the first place, and once again headed towards her restaurant. we finally got there around 6 only to find out that we would have to wait 45 minutes for a table. we went to job lot and the family dollar which were next door to entertain ourselves. we looked at xmas decorations and bought a card to send to casey in spain. we eventually ate and then drove to providence place with the intentions to see a movie. unfortunately, there was nothing good playing so we got ben and jerrys and walked to the apple store, where we stood in awe of the gorgeous computers. eventually, we drove home (jenn missed my street so it took a little longer) and watched gilmore girls.
and today, liz and i went out to lunch and in the hot tub, and my dad fixed my car :)

I want to get a job as someone who names kitchen appliances. Toaster, refridgerator, blender....all you do is say what the shit does, and add "er". I wanna work for the Kitchen Appliance Naming Institute. Hey, what does that do? It keeps shit fresh. Well that's a fresher....I'm going on break.
pretty much sums up my day

feeling in control of my schoolwork must be the best feeling in the world.
i am unnaturally excited for rosh hashanah. i am also very energetic right now, which is good because i have lots to do still before i go to bed.
also i get my license (well take my drivers test) in three months from tomorrow. yayy:)

Which old school Nickelodeon show are you?
|
|
|
[11 Sep 2006|08:55pm] |
school
soccer
band
tons of homework
that is my life as of now
but i am strangely content. i love to be busy. i am not going on AIM or watching tv and i am actually trying hard. hopefully it will pay off, because nothing could be worse this fall than trying this hard and getting bad grades, especially this year. but i have faith that i can do it. i just might not see any of my friends until the end of november. but we all have to sacrifice, and comparitively, it's not so bad.
--edit
i love how all of the comments on here are like a running commentary from amanda and kate :)

...and yet a nother school year rears its ugly head.
junior year is quickly approaching. i have mixed feelings.
i am doing more that ever this year, with soccer, band, pals, science club, basketball and lacrosse. i am doing it to challenge myself in a way. i want to see if i can handle it along with all honors and ap classes and everything. i hope i can, cause otherwise this year will suck. i know that as soon as i start to get work in school i will hate it because i will have some sort of practice, or even 2 practices every day, plus band every saturday. but i have faith in myself to actually do it all. i am excited to be a junior and an upperclassman. i only have two years left, high school is literally flying by. wasn't i just a freshman?
anyways i hope that this year will prove to be fabulous
