Blargh. Not a ton to say atm but I figured I might as well update.
1. First of all I just have to say that my nose is super stuffy right now. I took two Sudafeds and have been blowing my nose like a madwoman. I HATE STUFFY NOSES because they're impossible to sleep with. Ugh.
 
2. I went out with my voice teacher again today. We went up to Albany where she had a lesson with a professional, then we went out to eat. The waitress ended up coming to our table at the last second saying they were out of veggie burgers so I got a free meal! that was nice!
3. Update on my classes:
History: The teacher seems really cool. She says she doesn't believe in making us take finals, so in place of a final we get to do a take home essay that's only three pages long! Plus the material is pretty interesting so I'm not complaining here.
Geography: This guy is from Sudan and really hard to understand, but the subject seems relatively easy as long as I put in the work. Also he consistently lets class out 10-20 minutes early =)
Philosophy: I hate the kids in my class. But the subject is interesting so that' ok.
Freshman seminar: I. hate. this.
I am keeping up with studying even through meltdowns so thats good. Still same old neurotic me.
4. Trying to not think about things. I had a chat with Christine (my voice teacher)  who didn't leave home till age 20…she turned out fine. Don't wanna think about it too much right now bc I want a peaceful night's sleep.
5. I am going to the mall tomorrow with a girl I met. She's really sweet and she seems to not be completely weirded out by my crazy sense of humor…so hopefully we'll become good friends. I just am anxious about the outing but whatever, I'll have to get over it.
 
I hope everyone is well and I'm off to try to get some sleep! xo

Hey, I am glad that your classes are going okay and that they seem interesting on the whole. I am so glad that you are facing challenges full on. I hope you enjoy the mall and that the other girl will become a good friend.

I\'m glad school is going well for you, sorry about your cold, colds are the worst and they do keep you from getting some sleep. I\'m glad you maybe found a new friend, I hope the friendship blossoms, so you have someone to talk to when the times get tough.

I had kind of the opposite. I was a real geek in high school and went to college at 16, about half the size of everyone else. I was able to make tons of aquaintances, but few real friends. And I didn\'t even have my ED/OCD back then. But it sounds like you are starting to adjust. It takes time. Keep at it and you will be great. Remember I am around to chat if you need it.
