- Leaving Chicago sucks. Just when I was kind of starting to feel it, get accustomed and comfortable, look to the horizons for new experiences... the rug gets pulled out from underneath. However, twelve weeks was, despite what many may say about their summers, a long, long time. Here's to the hope that I'll be able to pick up where I left off upon my eventual return to the state of Illinois.
- Outer Banks is definitely worth it. Yes, the traffic is hell. Yes, everything is spread out, the island is overpopulated, and the style of life is probably the least efficient conceivable. Beside that, the feeling of self-containment, physical separation from daily worries and concerns, and attainable peace of mind makes it worthwhile to check out the beach. And, seven opinionated and at times argumentative people can survive a week together without any bloodshed.
- Absence has made the heart grow fonder. Charlottesville is a completely unique place. I'm ready to enjoy my last year there to the utmost. I also very much missed my apartment. The spartan accommodations in Chicago were killing me over the summer. It's very nice to have my things back, set up how I like it.
- Billy Corgan is tripping. The show in Charlottesville the other day was a huge disappointment. However, the evening was not a total loss... not at all.
