July 26
I don't know what it is. I was surrounded by friends whose company I greatly enjoy, but tonight I just couldn't get into it. In every setting, be in Plank, a park, or a back yard by a pool, I just didn't want to be there. I think it was a night where I needed to only be around one person, not a group of five.. or however many there were. In any case, I was a bore tonight and am now feeling a bit bad for it. But that's over... no use dwelling on it.
It's setting in with my mother big time that I'm going off to college. I'm the last one to leave so it's only going to be my father and her.. and I think that scares her a bit. It's not that I don't understand. If I had kids for twenty something years, and then theey left, I would be a little sad as well. I hope she becomes accustom to it in a short amount of time.
To tell you the truth, I'm going to be sad to go as well. I will miss my family and friends.. even this town. It has something about it. I've always said I hated this place, but that's not true. I'm ready to explore new things, but am going to miss the pattern of a life I've made here. Everything is starting over and that's a bit scary. I know I will get settled and things will become routine, but until then... man... I'm just going to be horribly uneasy.
This entry is short, and I'm sorry for that... really, though, I doubt you enjoy reading this and are glad it's now over.
