All We Are

And in the end the words won't matter

'Cause in the end nothing stays the same
And in the end dreams just scatter and fall like rain

'Cause all we are we are
All we are we are
And every day is a start of something beautiful, something real -- Matt Nathanson, "All We Are"
 
Tomorrow I'm driving down to Arlington to help Laura apartment-hunt, so I will be incommunicado for the most part, mes amis.  The girl she JUST moved in with told her she has until the end of September to find a new place to live 'cause she is going to move in with her boyfriend.  Awesome.  Friendship = epic fail.
 
A gnat just few into my coffee. I am pondering fishing it out and drinking it anyway.  It's a yummy cappuccino I made for myself!  Cept not really cause I don't have a fancypants espresso maker or milk-areater. :(
 
My classes are going to be fairly good experiences this semester, methinks.  I am going to enjoy my children's lit class, but despise my american culture class.  ...Really it would be better if it weren't American.  Why not something cool, like Asian culture?  Something not-individual-based?  Meh.  ::shrug::  Ironically, most of my classes have a heavy psychological basis.  Go figure.
 
UNT decided to fruitbasket turnover a bunch of their profs right before the start of term, so I had to buy six textbooks at 2am off of Amazon.com this morning.  Whee.  I hope I get them in time to read the twenty chapters I need to have done by Septembre 5.  ::eyeroll::  Oh, UNT.  Somehow...I am not surprised at ALL.  And poor Elizabeth ended up with some astronomy teacher that she can't even understand! :(
 
I miss going to IHOP and/or someplace on the Square to study.  I was pondering this dilemma I have whilst laying in bed yesterday.  Where on EARTH am I going to do my work in T-town?  I can't work at my house, but there's no convenient Panera or Jupiter House or Hydrant or ANYTHING!  I feel strangely abandoned! :(  And none of the coffeehouses here have the "study vibe"...moreso the "hang out here because there is nothing else to do in T-town" vibe.  Maybe the bread shop place on State Line will be good?  I know they serve bagels, fresh bread, and coffee.  It's worth a shot!  The only problem is, I think it closes early.  I won't even get off work until 5, and then I gotta make dinner and do the dishes....8pm is the earliest I can get crackin'.
 
It's refreshing to me that my most pressing issues in life are: moving houses, attaining a job and letters of recommendation, and.....where to study in Texarkana.   :)  While some of these are big things, they don't stress me OUT like interpersonal problems do. (praise Jesus!)
 
Speaking of Jesus, I had a bit of an incident the other day with a girl that thought she was a by far superior Christian to both myself AND Tiffany (and I rate Tiff higher than myself), and generally made us feel rather crappy about ourselves and our relationship with the Lord.  While part of me knows she was being a Judgy McJudgerson (thanks Elizabeth <3 ), the majority of me was disquieted and sadsad.  ...Guess I just gotta brush off them haters and keep doing the best I can! :)
 
I have to read The Bean Trees for one of my classes.  That's what I get for laughing at the UNT freshmen that have to read that for orientation.  Gosh darnit, poetic justice!  ::shakes her fist::
 
I'm quite excited to be able to read 'Smart People Books'.  Books that make me think, or that give me a different perspective on life.  Not that my usual books don't make me do these things.  In fact, I seem to have acquired most of my morals and basic life opinions from fantasy novels.  (Or possibly Final Fantasy.  I know I learned how to save money from FF ;)  ).
 
Um...something else was going to go here...but I since got distracted by something shiny.  Just pretend I said something witty and profound, and we'll call it even. :)
 
...Why does no one ever consider the life of the pharmacist?  Maybe HIS wife was dying, too!!
