Well. I still live, I promise. It's been such a busy time - nine weeks minus technology or Buffy or a real bed. I've learned how to belay really well (I am more than capable of suspending someone three times my own size on a climbing wall safely), I've learned how to make kids behave (Why? Because I told you. And it builds character.), and I've visited Penn's Cave more times than anyone rightly should (This is a rock chasing a rock over a rock, dammit!).
It's been tough. I didn't think I would be required to think so much, but I was. Practical problem solving, philosophical debate, human relation issues, my own problems that came up to bite me in the butt a few times... Really, you name it. I got a lot of reading done - when you are deprived of reading time, you learn to fit it in and then you learn to devour what you can get. I didn't write very much and I was a bad music student for not studying my music. Actually, I probably abused my voice a lot and I'll have some extreme catching-up to do and vocal pampering to do come this semester just to compensate. My voice teacher will be displeased.
Due to some recent events, I really don't feel like going back to school. I mean, I want to continue on to my senior year. It's going to be an exciting, busy, stressful time. I have a real apartment now, with two awesome flat mates, and I'll be accomplishing my senior project. I have a kickass class schedule that, if I can keep up with it, I'll enjoy a lot. Also, I look really good - my hair, for once, continues to behave admirably well. I haven't lost weight, so much, but only because muscle weighs more than fat and I am now in excellent shape. It's going to be a good year... as soon as I get up the guts to go back down to Virginia.
Believe it or not, I'm really enjoying myself here. A lot. In spite of my sore wisdom-toothless jaw. I need to get some cleaning done now. More posting later - now that I'm back in Internet land, I'm trying to get back to my old blogging habits.

Your senior year will probably be awesome, despite whatever nameless problems you might have. All manner of nifty things will happen that will make the stress totally worth it.
And speaking of this whole "call" thing, did you have anything particular in mind? I remain automobile-license-less, so anything farther away would rest squarely on your (apparently) muscular shoulders.
I am excited, and am becoming progressively more excited as the days go by and as I figure out the flat more.
About the "call" thing - my number remains the same and you forget that I do have an automobile and the means with which to operate it. My muscular shoulders are more than adequate to the task. Would you like to have lunch or something?
