The pensive mood has struck again. Life is getting much better here, yet I feel like I'm losing something too. I've become more outgoing in BCM, people who for some reason thought I was shy are seeing the real me. HAHA, for those who know me well, you know I'm not so much the shy kid I can appear to be! Playing bball, chillin with new people and going on that retreat have really helped incorporate me into the group and feel connected. It's like I run into BCM people everywhere... Yeah for taking over the campus!! However, I feel like I'm slowly losing the 1 valuable friendship I made here last semester. And not even really that I'm losing it, but that it's morphing into something different, something I cant quite interpret yet. For a while, we hung out constantly, and its like this semester, we don't need each other in the same way. I really hope that isnt the case...
A great Beatles song comes to mind:
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away. Oh, I believe in yesterday.

On a lighter note... Does anyone know what to wear to go ballroom dancing? Some have said "a skirt" and yeah, that's a big NO! :) Would anyone be abject to dress pants, platform shoes and a sleeveless button-down collared shirt?

Also, Nan went w/me to Kickin chicken tonight, bc apparently y'all think that it's a crime to have lived in Charleston for a semester and not have gone, well it was quite good. And... They played Beatles music the whole time, big plus!!!
Oh oh oh, my other big news: Mom is coming in like a week! So that should be way exciting.
