funny story that happened yesterday i didn't post yet: entitled "lost in suburbia"

friday morning when i'm still on vacation, I decide to go running in the neighboorhood around my aunt and uncle's house. i ask my cousin for a sweatshirt and she tells me a story of a friend of her's who got lost while running... so friday at about 10 to 11 i start running and normally go for about 20 minutes....my aunt and uncle's house is in a neighborhood with nice houses, not mansion-like things....eventually i get into this neighborhood with huge houses and in the midst of the winding streets, completely loose my sense of direction. my 20 minutes is up and i'm trying to work my way back to the direction i think the house should be.....still stuck in this really rich neighborhood....so i do a jog/ walk thing trying to find my way back for about 15 minutes....eventually i end up on this road on the edge of the neighborhood that i think will lead me to the house....so i'm on it for about 15 minutes when it becomes apparent this isn't working.....I'm like, oh shit, i can't call mom because she won't know how to find me, etc. so after standing dumbfounded for about 30 seconds, i decide to ask for directions (i am smart enough to know the address) i pick a house with 2 cars because there's a greater probability someone will be home, and sure enough a 20 something mom answers the door and gives me directions. So I end up on the highway about a 20 minute walk/ run from where i originally started....oops....but i was resourceful!

but anyway, i have this odd premonition (no idea if its true) that i will have acceptances from all 3 schools. i feel like i could end up in boston next year, which would be kick ass. but on the plus side, i have adapted to my surroundings in this house and i feel like i could function if i came here for holidays or whatever...going home tomorrow, then mock trial state on tues and wednesday.....then i'll actually be home (or atleast sleeping there) so goes life
