Friday was the end of my first week of the fall semester of my junior year here at NC State. Classes are going well so far, but it is only the first week, so the could change rapidly. This semester I'm taking Economics, Calculus, Organic Chemistry I, and Anatomy and Physiology. I'm in for a difficult semester, but I feel like as long as I keep up, I should be okay. I'm really enjoying being back here in Raleigh. I really missed all my friends this summer, and I'm having a great time doing stuff with them again, especially since I didn't get to see them very often last semester. I'm also enjoying making my own decisions again. My mom told me something once, when we were on a trip to visit my grandmother. She said that your age doesn't matter, because whenever you go home you're always treated like a child. I realized this summer that this is definitely true. My parents threatened to take my car very many times, for stupid things, like sleeping 20 minutes later than they thought I should have. Then there was the incident where my dad threatened to put a parental block on MTV and FX because he didn't like the language they used on MTV, and he thought Nip/Tuck was inappropriate. Maybe if I was 14, this would be valid, but this was right around the time that I was turning 19. Over the course of the summer, I hope that my parents started to realize that I am mature and responsible, and that I can make my own decisions.
In other (less boring) news... My fabulous roommate, Jessica, volunteered to make my blog pretty last week, and now you can see the results. I'm quite happy with how it turned out, especially since it combines two of my favorite things, Adrien Brody, and the color pink. Let me know what you think!
