I told everyone I'd be getting back on the 5th, but I checked my itinerary and I'll actually be getting back tomorrow, the 4th. Oh well. My flight leaves pretty early. I should get some sleep.

The plan with Chowon is pretty much set. She's got her flight and her places to stay. I found a gift, and mom and dad got her some presents, too. I hope it comes in time^^

While I am typing, mom just told me to pray for my sister's feet. ... I don't think I really wanna know what's goin on with that.

School school school school school...... I don't feel ready for it. Maybe the few days of being on campus before classes start will help with that.

The RD has the building locked, so I have to live in AO for a few days before they'll let me in. It's too bad. I really wanted to set up my stuff first...

Being away from school has allowed me to psychoanalyze several of my friends from a reflective stance as opposed to trying to figure them out while I'm immersed in interaction with them. From this place, I can take the way John gets mad when we don't notice his rich-kid stuff, and the way Chris builds himself up by testing others, or the way my roommate outlets his emotions, or how Shane doesn't, and how Ben wanted affirmation that one time, but I wasn't sure how to give it.... I can take those things and interpret them without pressure to respond appropriately.

Sometimes stuff gets stuck in the holes where my wisdom teeth used to be, and it takes forever to get it all out. If I miss a tiny little bit, it makes my breath bad and it makes me feel really gross. I hope that doesn't happen when Chowon is with me. ... I'm gonna carry around some breath mints... and a toothbrush... The thing is, if it's really stuck, it will take being in front of a mirror for a while to get it out, and sometimes that makes the scars bleed, I don't think I want a bunch of blood in my mouth when I'm with Chowon either..

"But I was right."
