i feel the need to write. well...and speed. the need for speed. always a bonus.

i finally feel like putting some thoughts down here. i haven't really stopped coughing in 36 hours...and i'm very drained. i almost made it out of the house to go to fort reno...but i couldn't. newton's...1st..law took over my house and i had to sit down and watch 'the princess diaries' and 'panic room'. sit, not lie, mind you, because it makes me cough more.

so i finished harry potter V today. like, wow. i did some quick calculations and figured i read 450 pages in 6.5 hours (i didn't go out much today due to the non-breathing state i am in). i enjoyed the book a lot. it was pretty emotional...meaning that it envoked a lot of emotion in me, i actually didn't cry.

someone (he- who- must- not- be- named) ruined the surprise for me....but i survived.

there are so many projects i want to work on and books to read and people i want to see. the future is frighteningly close... and i don't know how i am going to take it. nowadays, i occasionally find that i am isolating from certain people. i don't think it's on purpose, but after realizing this i say to myself "i probably won't see them much after this fall anyway...i'll be alright"... as if that would justify it. i really don't know what lies ahead. it scares me a little bit, but it has to work out. i know it will. i've made friends after being thrown into unknown situations before... i must remember to chill out. oberlin is absolutely the right place for me. it has to be. they chose me. i mean, i got in. nobody else did. i think i sound like some sort of...wizarding novel...but that may be just the combination of the terrifying number of pages of HP i read today and the overdose of allergy/ cough medicine i just ingested.

which always makes for an interesting night.

seriously, i remember one time i took too much allergy medicine and i ended up yelling at brooke for not letting me go to sleep and then i laughed a LOT. come to think of it...that story doesn't make sense. nor is it funny.

i better stop. this is getting ridiculous. but at least i managed to spell that right. i think.

thats all folks.
