I guess it's about time I update. A lot has changed in the last few weeks. Probably everyone that looks at my blog already knows what's been going on, but this is a chance to hear it the way I choose to tell it.
As I said on a previous post, I was staying with the Samuelson family during February. As it turns out, I stayed there from the last week of January to 1 March. I didn't intend to stay so long, but Elisabeth insisted I stay. She is the last of the Samuelson crew at home, and enjoyed having a sister for a month. She is a wonderful older sister...by ten months. I was hesitant to stay, always worrying that I was imposing, but I did enjoy my time there. They helped me a lot as I've been dealing with health problems. The last week of February I decided to withdraw from school. We were at midterms, and while my teachers were more than willing to help, I was, to use a cliche that I hate, in over my head.
Now I am "home" in Utah. I have been here all week. It's a very weird thing to be in a strange house with my parents, my sister, all my stuff, etc. I have been keeping myself busy with movies, American Idol, and organizing my room. I am embarking on a redecorating project. I'm painting my room. I think it will be good for me to have a project like this to keep my mind occupied. I'm hoping it will be therapeutic.
I don't have many more details, so I guess this is it for now. Perhaps soon I'll have some creative writing to post. We'll see how things go.
