sigh

I woke up at 9 this morning and decided that was too early. I went back to sleep and woke up later thinking it was like 10:30 or 11. I looked at the clock and it was 1:30. That sort of wasn't the best start to my day, but I moved on.

I felt so old today. I was sitting on my floor, drinking some sort of coffee drink, eating a bagel, and looking at some info on Washington University in St. Louis. I don't know why, but I felt old, something about the way I was looking at life at the time. I was reminded of my cousin Julie somehow. I was also thinking about how cool it would be to live near Julie and go to school there.

I wrote my college essay, draft one.. maybe draft two now. It isn't quite ready to be sent and will have to be changed for some schools, but I think it is close to what I'll use for Columbia. I feel good about it. It only took me between 30 and 60 minutes, which was very cool.

Yesterday turned out alright. I don't know what's up and if I am sick again (or if my current sickness is just increasing its symptoms), but I felt really terrible for parts of the night. It's all good, though.

I haven't talked to anyone yet, today. I talked to my dad for a little bit.. but that's it. I am going over to Emily's now to paint. I will talk to her and her mom. yay.
