Late night desk shift at the NoRo front desk, where I should be studying for spanish, but I am restless.
I will practice translations.

- Este dia fue muy extraño: Today was sort of an off day, to go with the weather this morning. It started out with my bike breaking, and my slipping and falling twice this morning. (TOMS + slick floors = no bueno.) To top it all, I saw a dead squirrel behind the SUB. Strange as it sounds, I found myself choking up a bit. God speaks to some people consistently with rain or butterflies, but he sends me squirrels as symbols of joy. The day perked up a bit, again coinciding with the brightening weather. Bought a ticket for Where the Wild Things Are, got an A on a paper, had dinner with good people...so really, that Relient K lyric, "lately the weather has been so bipolar and consequently, so have I" is really fitting.
- Voy a Dallas porque necesito a ver mi familia: I miss my family. Not that this should be surprising, necessarily, but I don't know that there has been a time in my college experience so far that I have felt like I legitimately needed a break, and that I needed to go home for that break. It'll be good to see everyone after being away for over two months.
That's about it for now. Time to stop procrastinating,
I hope everyone has a wonderful Fall Friday! :)


I've felt that way about going home this semester, too. I've never particularly felt like I've needed to go home for one of these short breaks before, and most of the time I just hang out at Brooks, but this year I felt like I NEEDED the break at home.
I hope you are enjoying your time with la familia, and I look forward to running into you at CG when we get back to Waco, lol!
