: General update.
I am in the final days of my summer Physics class. The final exam will take place on Friday of next week. Needless to say, I am very anxious to be done with it all, as I am dangerously close to reaching my breaking point. One can only study for four to seven hours a day, seven days a week, for so long before one's brain threatens to implode.
Luckily, I had a bit of a break on Wednesday. An old friend was in town for the week, and we met up for lunch and some light shopping before we went to her house for dinner. It was lovely to see her again and to feel as if my life consisted of something more than studying and loneliness for the first time in months. It was wonderful to see her mother and step-family, and to spend hours showing them my jewelry pieces (I haven't heard that many compliments at once in quite some time). Most of all, it was wonderful to be with people who have known me for nearly a decade-and who accept me, strangeness and all, without judgement. Not something easily found, I must say.
