I am now scheduled for my fall classes. It is so exciting! I have five courses I'm taking next semester, and I was able to get into all the classes I had originally planned on except for one (the psychology class). Definitely a huge relief.
I saw someone today who I used to know. We were "good" friends once, but things ended on very bad terms. Apparently we were standing at the same crosswalk together. I didn't even notice her until she walked in front of me and sped off! I had thought when the friendship ended that if I saw her again I would probably be really bitter and angry still. However, I really didn't have any inclination towards anger or bitterness. I suppose it is because my soul is a lot calmer now and I realize that things like that aren't really important. It hasn't even been a year since we ended the friendship and I really don't harbor any ill will towards the person. I'm pretty sure she has some bitterness and anger towards me since she practically ran past me and avoided the same route I was taking (we were both headed in the same direction). I can't blame her really. If I hadn't been saved then I probably would feel so much anger still.
I guess I have really great friends now too so I don't focus on past friendships that have ended (this is a shout out to you Clem!)
Linguistics was quite interesting today. My professor made a joke that everyone understood and it was really funny. We watched a video too on English dialects and some dialects are really hard to understand- mostly the obscure ones. I don't think I will ever use the word schlep seriously.
I know what you mean. Some people stay mad over stupid stuff. When you hold a grudge, you're the only person who really gets hurt!
