At Work and Bored As Ever

It's actually exactly as the title says. I am at work and bored to death. Actually, not to death. I like being bored at my job because I'm not very...skilled. Besides the basics, of course! So, how has my day been so far? Unproductive. Very. I'm heading to the library after my shift so I can do some work! It'll be quite exciting...not. But besides that...ooh! Yesterday I got letters from my sisters and Justin's siblings! Haha. It's kind of random, but yeah. I love Irene and Andy! :D I told that to my best friend and she was like, eh? Why his siblings? (The answer? Because I love them!) I love snail mail. It's really fun. I hope the pile of letters I'm getting get bigger!

Lately I've been getting a little homesick. Not to the point where I'm bawling and missing everyone like mad. No, I actually don't miss people too much. I miss material things...which is not good? Well, I guess I miss my church, and there's people in that church. Oh, and I miss the babies too! Ah! But yeah, besides that, I just miss material things like my car, my bed, my city at home...

Funny, really. I didn't think I'd get homesick at all. I really, really like it here and all, but you know, home is where the heart is. It'd probably be a lot easier on me if I had my car here! I miss driving too. Goodness gracious! Oh well. Letters, letters! I love getting letters! I need to get new stationary too. To add the list, I also need a haircut, but I digress. :]

Winter is coming soon! It's windin' up a storm outside and I just want to stay in my room all day and listen to music and wind down, but I've got homework! Boo homework. :[ Oh well. That's what I get for living on campus at...well, college. I can't wait to go back! All this new-found freedom is delightful, but I really want to see my California again. I miss it. The Californians here are all from the north (wherever that is...pfft). Not REAL Californians! Hehe.

Yeah, so anyway. I met with my advisor and got all my classes for next term, so I'm set! Pretty much. I'll be really depressed during the winter too, I'm guessing, so I'm not sure if deciding to take math was the best idea...oh well. I have a poetry writing class to cheer me up! I've been getting into poetry and plays a lot recently. I've written a couple of poems since I've been here (more than I can say for the last year or so), and I've been really getting into Arthur Miller and his plays. I guess it helps that we're studying poetry in my lit class and that I'm doing a research paper on Miller. Yes! I feel good studying, and call me crazy because I think I am. Researching people and reading about them is just so interesting! And also, I love the library. That probably helps too.
