oceantheorem: (Have fun storming the castle!)
*sigh* I have waaay to much to say. And I'm tired, so I don't really feel like making a nice long entry. So we'll just make this short.

Last week sucked. I was having trouble dealing with Nanny's death, I was regretting not going to the funeral even though she told me not to, I had three midterms, I was supposed to start my first thesis project, I had two lab reports due, and on top of all that my computer was fried and in the shop. So Sunday night, after studying physics for six hours, instead of going to a biochem review session I had a breakdown. On campus. I called my mom and sobbed at her for 15 or 20 minutes (so I guess the ability to cry is still in there somewhere), and at the end of the conversation she offered to come down here and take care of me for a few days. So she did. She came down Monday, and while I was in class Tuesday and Thursday she did my laundry and cleaned my room and reinstalled things on my computer. We went out to eat and hung out on the beach and watched movies and Gilmore Girls. She left Wednesday night and I felt much better by then. Midterms are over. I got a 73 on Eukaryotic, which is probably a C, but I got a 96 on physics, which makes me happy (except that I'd be insulted if I'd gotten anything less; that test was uber easy). We'll see on Tuesday how I did in biochem; I may have to drop it after all. Haven't yet done any work on my thesis; Don was really nice and told me to just leave it until after midterms.

The sun is shining, the sea is sparkling, I have little to no homework for this weekend, my computer works, it's not noon yet and I'm already done with classes for today, and I'm now going to hole myself up in my room (with the door closed solidly to humanity and all the windows open to the sun and air) and watch an entire disk of season 3 Alias. This, my friends, is happiness.

Well, that and cookies.

...

P.S. Those of you in the area, I guess my housemates are having a seafood party tomorrow (Saturday) night. Partially because I'm angry at them for not telling me this until last night, I'm inviting all of MY friends to come and eat their food. Also partially because I like seafood and it's a good excuse to hang out with you guys and eat good food. So call me or come over or whatever.

Yeah, it was really cool of her.

I wish I could see you too! Only five more weeks until my spring break... I'll be home then.

Love you lots, Gooon!

Good to see you made it through, and that your mom is there for you. Moms... ah... moms.

I love that icon, btw. It's a keeper.

*laugh* Yay for Princess Bride icons.

Yeah, my mom rocks. Hopefully someday I'll be as awesome as she is.

Hope you're doing okay.

AHH!

My darling goon, I know this is too late, but know that I wish I could be there to help. Probably as much as you wished that you could have been able to help hold me as the tears came out.
Know I love you and am always sending thoughts your way.

Thanks for the support, Bren. I really really really appreciated that email you sent to me right after Nanny died. Just knowing you care meant a lot. *HUG* I hope I was able to lend you a bit of support, too.... I do wish I could have been there for you, and I hope you know I'm sending you my love.
Love,
Kara
