winter term eve

i've been out of it for about a week now, and i'm not sure why. i think i'm more extroverted than i let on, because i can't wait to be back in school and interacting with people face-to-face on a daily basis. i need to get out of the suburbs and spend more time in the city--this quiet neighborhood is suffocating me.
on a less related topic, i haven't succeeded in finishing (and in some cases, starting) all that i set out to do this break--but i feel so very rested, and that's a major accomplishment in itself. i almost wish i had just a few more days left of winter break so that i could file my papers and get ready for the term properly, but honestly, even if i had another week i probably wouldn't get much more done.

so this is it. i'm only doing four classes this term, 16 credits and only 4 that are going towards my degree.. i'm not being realistic about my education, but i'll deal with that later--for now, i'll just bathe in my current state of anticipation (and enthusiasm) for what's to come.

good night, world. xoxo, j.
