I visited PLU over the weekend...
I wanna go back. The campus is beautiful, the classes are small, the teachers are awesome, the students are friendly... I even get to feel smart sometimes! And, no offense to my friends here, I feel new. I haven't grown up there; I can be whomever I want to be (which, as it happens, is a part of me that I don't really get to show or be here.)
I don't know exactly what it is or how it works but while I was there I was different. I noticed it only when I got back here. It's hard to describe. I was such a different person for the two days that I was there and now that I'm back I'm doing things, thinking things, that the me from there wouldn't do. Like boys. Here I think about boys, there I think about music and it's driving me crazy! I would so much rather think about music than be a drama-driven, boy-crazy high school girl but while I'm here I can't seem to focus on much else, despite my best efforts. I don't think I've ever experienced such a quick, inexplicable, noticeable difference in myself before and it's cool. I want to go to PLU sooooo bad now.
Only a couple more months...
