I can't think about anything but August.
This place is noisy and stagnant. I can't concentrate at all. I find myself in a repetitive cycle of sitting on my bed staring at a spot on the wall until my next class. I'm not doing my papers anymore, which doesn't really matter as long as I turn them in before the year is over because my one paper-oriented class is pointless. My grades are acceptable, so I don't really care. I'm pretty much just waiting.
As much time as I spend with Colin, I'm never actually alone with him. Kissing in common rooms is awkward. We're rarely intimate anymore, but at least it's not for lack of trying. I know he's crazy about me, and I'm crazy about him, and that's all I really care about.
I've really got to buckle down and find time to find a good job for the summer, because with the new fashion requirements and expenses, God knows I need the money. I feel terrible spending my parents' money. Obviously they don't mind, they're my parents, but I'm sure they wouldn't mind me helping out, either. I'm going to need a mac book for design programs, a standard dress form [approx. $500], sewing materials like threads, linens, decent scissors, french curve rulers, etc., plus the cost of furniture and food. and a car would be nice.
I want to grow my hair out and buy pretty sundresses and be a girl. I want to go to beach with the both of you [oh please oh please can we at least try], if only for a day, just to see and hear the ocean. I want to draw with sidewalk chalk and ride my bike and eat cookie dough and have sleepovers where I actually stay awake and be a kid again, because this whole "life" thing is just too stressful. I find it funny how last year I craved distance and independence, and now all I want is my friends and my bed and my dog. The simple comforts I took for granted. I wonder how I ever got sick of them. I want my mommyyyy. Well, maybe not.
I love you both.
