The Democrates took the house! According to USA Today They are going to try to decrease loan interest rates and make it cheaper to go to college! YES! I need it. Here's the link It seems like everyone is getting engaged lately! I guess I'm just at that age. There's currently one engaged couple in each of my Institute classes, and when there's less than ten people in each class, this is significant. Things aren't as bad at the office as I thought they would be. You see, they've been trying to do something, and they just got turned down over something really dumb from the sound of it. I'd say what exactly, but I think this is suppose to be private in the office. Lets just say that it almost seems like the eastern US is trying to keep the West from starting to do this, and thus is using whatever means possible. Ick. Bussiness is soooo ugly. * * * Why do I always do this to myself? So I went to the pizza tasting thing on campus (all you can eat pizza from around the area for $1) and I ended up sitting alone. I probably could've joined in with Jaclyn and crew, but, I don't know. They didn't ask me to sit with them either, of course it was Heather- I think that's her name at least- who saw me and waved. I don't know. I sat by myself. Maybe this is why I feel alone in crowds? I'm just too shy to invite myself to a group. I was really excited to do this, but I just ended up unwilling to go be with other people. I guess I just don't want to deal with the drama inherient in socializing. I guess I just don't want to listen to people stereotyping and making fun of others. Most groups have at least one person who loves to do this, not all, but most seem too. Maybe I've just hung around too many reds. Maybe I just don't want to be lied to. I tend to believe people until they've given me reason not too. I just don't want to deal with the drama. I'm doing ok now. It was socializing that through me into my depression of the last two years, and I don't want to go back there. Yet I get lonely. It takes time for my friendships to grow. I'm still surprised that Kayley and I such good friends. A part of me really isn't interested in friendship. I can't take it. I don't think I'm strong enough. Yet I'm not fully happy alone either. I just don't know. ~Amyelk Out
