Paper Cranes

Easter was kind of sad. I went to church, ate lunch in the dorms, did homework... I don't know. Cat invited Jenny and me to her (parents') house for Easter dinner, but I really needed to write my paper and Jenny doesn't like eating at people's houses. So Easter was rather blah.

I was supposed to get up at 8am Saturday so I could do something at 9am, but at 7am I decided that I would rather sleep... and so I turned off my alarm. 1) I didn't really want to go for various reasons and 2) I didn't know if I'd be back in time for the baseball game. I feel bad for not doing it, but it'll be ok.

You know, I really don't like endings. I think that whenever anything good and meaningful in my life ends, it feels like the end of a week of camp to me. It's emotional. Part of the reason I decided to stay here for the spring is because I wasn't ready for it all to end... but it will be completely different anyway. It's hard to let go of things that were so good and were only experienced for such a short time. And I guess that's part of the reason that I kind of want 'real life' to start... it's more stable, things aren't changing drastically every four years. And it's also part of the reason that I'm hesitant about going to Germany. It's like I'm forcing myself into another change that could be so easily avoided. Another reason I decided to stay is because I have some unfinished business.

Yeah, today was the last day of classes. We had a quiz in German syntax and it was open book, open notes, open friend, and open instructor. I still did bad. We spent the whole 90 minutes doing that and talking. The only other thing I had today was my GeoSci final. It was 35 questions and 80% of the grade. I didn't do wonderfully, but we'll see.

Tonight I decorated candles with Kat, Katie, Becky, Erin, Brad, and Josh. That was definitely some fun times. Then we had ice cream, but I don't really like ice cream.

My recent obsession has been making paper cranes. I currently have six of them.
