Thanksgiving
I am so incredibly excited that this day has finally come, it is the first day of Thanksgiving break and it couldn't come fast enough. I always feel that when breaks come, they come right at the right time, because I'm not sure if I could have lasted another week. One of my friends pointed out it's just because I keep waiting for this week and so I am mentally preparing and setting myself up for the break, but regardless I am happy for it.
I have a bit of a day of travel ahead of me, my flight leaves for New York at about 2, and then I have a connecting flight to DC. I am so excited that I get to see David, and I'm really stoked to see his family again too. It's strange to think the last time I was at his house was in July, because it feels like it was just yesterday.
This semester has blown right by me, and thinking about the summer is kind of like recalling a dream I had a night or two ago, and it is strange to me that I lived in New York for an entire summer, and all the things I did while I was there. It almost feels like its something I remember from someone else's life.
Yesterday I got "Twilight," the book on which the movie is based. And you can call me a teenage girl all you want, but I'm really enjoying it. I'm not much of a reader, the only things I ever really ready for my sake are Harry Potter books, or plays. I don't pick up books off the cough very well. But I am burning through this book, for me to be 100 pages in less than a day after getting it is quite a feat for me (something the novel buffs like my mom and Julia would probably scoff at, but give me credit where it's due).
I got the book because I have so much down time at rehearsals for Little Women. There are long breaks in the show for me, and especially while we are teching, there is nothing for me to do, it was a good distraction last night, especially since nobody wanted to be there, it was the last thing before break and all we wanted was to get out and go home.
All day yesterday I felt especially light, the way I can only feel on the last day of school before a break. I knew I had no homework to worry about, and all of my classes and work entailed just showing up yesterday. However I had class then ork then another class and then rehearsal straight through until 10 o'clock, and the hours (especially in my second class) were passing SO slowly.
When I got home, I also found that my Neti Pot had arrived! For those who do not know what I am talking about, a neti pot is a special pot where you pour warm water up one nostril, the water travels through your sinuses and out the other nostril. It sounds disgustingly amazing, and I have wanted one since I first heard about them my freshman year of college, since I have so many allergy problems. Last week when I got a huge sinus hit all I wanted was to wash out those sinuses, so I got online and ordered it. It came yesterday, and I have to say, yes, it is one of the strangest sensations I have ever had, but my nose was CLEAN afterwards, and I felt like it had relieved a headache I didn't even know I had.
After that, I was just high energy all night, I packed my bags, and bobbed around the apartment, I am just so excited to see David!
Well I'm going to go get ready now, I'm going out to breakfast with Ross's folks, and then back home to get my stuff and head to the airport.
I miss you all, and I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving, Julia I hope your big Thanksgiving bash goes fantastically! If it happens next year as well, I will MORE than likely be there, because it sounds amazing! And anyone else traveling to AZ (or those two going to CA) please travel safely, and be thankful yall.
PS I'm also pretty sure I'll have lots of pictures after this weekend. I also have a few of the last week because per Julia's council I have just been bringing out my camera and snapping pictures, since I know I'll want them later.
