Blog 67 - Back to School

Oddly, I'm very happy to be back at school. During this whole 4 day weekend I've been feeling a little out of place with unfamiliar settings, but in all honesty I'm just glad I'm back so that I can concentrate more and get work done. Sad, isn't it? That during this whole break all I was worried/cared about was studying for finals and doing homework! What a geek.


Geekery aside, it's nice to be in the dorms again. I've really made dorm life feel homey, though I still want to move out next year. It's going to be a challenge finding a nice place thats nearby at a decent price. I really want to find something good, and moving off campus will save me a lot of money. Well, more like my parents a lot of money. I have this kind of...guilt that they're paying so much for me to be in college (especially out of state tuition) even though they've been saving since I was a baby for me to go to college. It's weird though, because I'm really working hard in school. I'm not dicking around partying all day and not focusing on school. I think it's a sense of ... well something like making sure that their price wasn't paid for nothing, that I make their money worth it. I really appreciate how much they're doing for me to go to school, and all I really want to do is prove to them that their money wasn't wasted, that all of their hard work to raise me and sacrificing distance for me to attend college was all worth while.
