well, i'm finally back down in champaign, urbana. i finally have access to the internet (although not at my apt yet). i am finally starting classes. and i am finally going to get a JOB.
the end of summer came much too quickly and the starting of classes on a monday really screwed me up. but i'm back and i'm not going to complain until i get into the swing of it all.
i miss my mom obviously, but i miss my friends a lot and my kitty and my dog (yeah, pepper and i made friends over the summer). there's something about home now that just makes me want to snuggle up and stay close. it scares me. i have this appreciation for it. i love it. or maybe not it as in the actual location, but the idea of my family and my friends and the places, and smells, and sights that are so familiar. sometimes i wish it wasn't that way so i wouldn't get so homesick. but then i think about the people that don't ever want to go home and i am grateful that i have the privilege to feel that way.
still eating vegan...despite the weird reactions and the teasing from friends (all in good fun). my mom has been exceptionally supportive (she loves it, i've been eating healthier than i have in my entire life).
i have reduced the amount of items i possess (i still need to get rid of more!!).
still working on the green observer. and working on getting an internship with the wetlands preserve...they run freegan.info.
all in all---i feel good.
