first of all, i’m very excited that the fourth edition of “teen girl squad” has been released. check these chicks out. they are looking soooooooo good!
not so excited about the current state of my physical health. (sick)
so, it looks like i’m going on 46 peaks weekend after all. still feel a bit nervous about proving my woodsiness abilities, but as long as i can act as independently as possible and maintain confidence in myself, i think it will be a good experience. mom is excited that i’m going – she’s sending all my random camping equipment that i haven’t used in years and never would have thought to bring. i need to locate my long underwear though – it’s going to be mad cold in the adirondacks! as long as i don’t get hypothermia again it will be all good. it’s a four mile hike into the campsite where we’re staying on friday, then we campout and leave our gear at the site the next morning, and it’s about 6 hours up the seward mountain peak and back down to camp. i want to take it easy and enjoy the mountains for the weekend. we’ll be back on saturday night, just in time for me to do some laundry, watch tv and read walden in my spa bathrobe before bed.
addie said she would be interested in going camping anytime, so maybe we can do our own little chill trip sometime.
had my computer cleared for viruses today. the help desk guy was very interesting, and told me that he is always looking for people to work the night help hotline, so maybe i’ll go fill out an application there. de ja vu or what? i’m also going to finally gather the courage to e-mail the director of the writing center and see what my options are, if any, in terms of continuing my writing center work at hamilton. i do really miss it; i helped addie with a paper of hers last week and just felt right at home.
sometimes i miss mhc, but i cherish those feelings of belonging. more to come, right?
