Somehow you stole this smile away,
faster than the droughts of the rain,
I should have seen it coming,
nothing ever works without pain.

Hoping that this time,
the rains might stay till harvest,
my hope was misplaced in you,
why,
how,
could you.

I’ll be fine,
for you I worry,
don’t forget me.

I honestly don’t remember who I wrote that for, it was way back in January and I found it in my room at home before I came here so I decided to put it up. It’s a beautiful day out so I might go outside and write for a while, I’m not sure yet.

Well it’s been a couple days now since I’ve moved in and the adjustment went really well. Most of us have really gotten into the groove here and are loving it. It feels like I will finally be able to prove something to myself, not that what I have done in the past wasn’t all of my making but now it just feels different. I don’t have my mom telling me I need to be reading or working on work/school. That’ll make anything that I do accomplish seem that much more meaningful to me. I’m not really sure why but I just know that it will.

Yesterday we picked up our laptops, they are insanely sweet. Brand new, twelve inch powerbooks from apple. They are sooooooo nice, I’m realy excited to have this for the next two years (first post from the laptop). I’m just starting to get it all set up how I want it to be, got the music sharing going on in itunes from my tower and hopefully we can find a way to get the shared music all over campus, also have an airport network (wifi) set up in our room that lets me be anywhere around here and be online and working. That is really nice to have.

My mind has been running a million miles an hour lately and I haven’t had a chance to come up with any really deep thoughts or things to ponder and write about. Give me time though and I will. Meeting people is just so awesome. I think I’ve met someone I really like, we’ll have to see how it all works out though.

Take Care and God Bless,
