A Koala-Tea Life...

This is going to sound hilarious, but there are (many) people at this school who think I have a huge ego. I can understand where it comes from, honestly. It means a few things though. You shouldn’t ask a question you don’t want the answer to. I freely admit when I’m awful at something just as much as I admit I’m good at something. I usually don’t really say just how good I am at something though. It likely also means you don’t know me that well. You don’t know the half of what this man has been blessed with. And for that, I thank you Lord. For Your glory.

I don’t really have much of an ego. Think about another person like me (in terms of what they’ve done in life) and tell me I have an ego. Good luck.

I feel like I’m at an engineering school w/ the gender ratio reversed. The odds are good, but the goods are certainly ODD. Odd as it gets.

Should have gone to a state school. I swear.

Why do some people have to be so impossible all the flipping time? This seriously isn’t rocket science. 

As a runner, I’ve always taken running for granted. That is, the idea that running is difficult for people confounds me because it has always felt so effortless to me (in truth, I can understand, but I can’t relate completely). Sorry, I don’t mean that to be offensive! 

I listened to an SPU ‘06 alum talk today in one of my classes. She came into school with the same intentions as myself - chemical engineering at the graduate level, etc. She’s still in school now having changed her mind on her vocation several times. She also emphasized the importance of the college experience, one of which is obviously building relationships with all sorts of people, some of whom will become lifelong friends.

That is one of the things I’m after here. And it’s hard here. Truly. I feel like people are less apt to give you that opportunity here in comparison to home. I don’t care about being popular, well-liked, or all of that nonsensical, vain stuff anymore. I don’t know that I ever really cared about that before, it came with the territory and I enjoyed it. Like I said though, those days are long gone now. I’m interested in becoming really good friends with certain people, people whom
I probably will be friends with for my time on this planet. It’s hard when you don’t get the chance though, regardless of the reason. I’m a lot of different people, which makes it, in part, my fault, but sometimes I wish people would actually open their eyes and think a tiny bit. If only.

I wish I could tell you everything.

If only you let me.

There are certainly times when I really miss having people to talk to. People who know you well. People who won’t judge you. People who just love you and care for you. I don’t have many of these people in my everyday life anymore, and it is unfortunate because they are certainly hard to come by here. I think Ive found one…but who knows…

One of the things I miss about home…
