I feel like it’s been May for years now…and I’m kind of enjoying it.

I’ve actually been home for two weeks and a few days.  Why am I counting this?  I think it’s like when you break up with someone and you’re like, I’ve now been single for two weeks and two days…what, does no one else do that?  Well ok, point being, I MISS WESLEYAN.

How could I not!

Not that I’m not having fun at home.  It’s just, once you go to college, when you come back you’re like “I used to live like this??” (Kind of like the being single metaphor…okay FINE I’ll drop it.)

For example, “I used to have a curfew??”

or, “I used to have to drive everywhere??” (#LAproblems)

But anyways, snap back to reality.  Right now, I’m sitting on my bed, looking at a copy of my high school’s Literary Magazine (I’ve been back at my high school more often than I’d like to admit, kind of lurking, nbd) and eating an apricot.  TMI?  Probably.  But this is kind of the plan for the day.

Yesterday was more interesting, or shall I say, CRRRRAZY.  I had one tutoring appointment in the morning, up in the hills of Beverly Hills (aka up a million windy streets with great sweeping views of Los Angeles that are super tempting to gawk at but then you also don’t want to fall off the road), and then I met with a friend for lunch, and then had ANOTHER tutoring job a little further down in the canyon, and then I came home and fell down dead asleep.

Tutoring has kind of been what I’ve been doing (productive-wise) and it’s great money and I love it even though it tires me out–I think I’m going to do this whenever I come home on breaks!  However, I do need to get a real job/internship, but unfortunately, I’m in that time where you just have to wait to hear back from people–I’ve already pestered everyone offering any kind of job ever in my area and I have yet to hear back.  Actually that’s not true, I got turned down by Sony Pictures, but hey.  They’re kind of a big deal.  I understand.

Until then, I’m just tryna hang out with old friends and enjoy myself.  It’s a hard-knock life, I know.  But seriously, I can’t wait for June.  I can’t wait for July.  August.  WESTEMBER.

By the way, if any of you have any good birthday party ideas, I’m all ears!  My birthday’s coming up and I was thinking a big picnic in the park near my house, but I’m still thinkin’ about it.  Would love to hear ideas!

xoxo,

Anya
