Till the Sun Turns Black

So I'm sitting in a coffee shop, waiting for some girls from my rhetorical criticism class for a study group. Thus, a blog should be produced. Well, at least before a study guide is.

I suppose the reason I haven't been posting much is that I haven't had a lot to say. There's lots going on (last week alone I met 5 famous people. Crazy.) I've been insanely over the moon about the weather change, it's intense. I never thought I'd miss a season as much as I miss winter, but there you go.

Something interesting that's happening with the weather change is how much I miss Australia. I miss it every single day, often more than once, and I want to go back so badly. I had said I didn't want to go back to Sydney, but maybe Melbourne and Adelaide, but I miss my home in Sydney. I miss walking down to the cafe for pain au chocolate and a latte. I miss taking the bus. I miss my crappy, little hostel with its warm bed and odd inhabitants. Nothing like an overcast sky and cool breeze to make me miss winter in Sydney.

School is school, I can't stop telling people it's crazy, which is the truth. I've never had to push myself this hard and have never wanted to do less work. Senioritis is real, except this time it's the opposite; I do not want to leave school, so hard work and doing well only means the minutes until graduate come all the more quickly. Therefore, I avoid all. So far...it's not working.

Alright, the girls are here, so I should go. But, the bottom line I'm selling is that I'm crazy, but I'm really happy. So there's that.
