...wait, no, I know why I came back early... problem is, I haven't been able to get anything done and I haven't been able to see hardly any of my friends (even out of those who are actually here), so it turns out neither of those reasons for coming back early instead of just staying with my mom and little sister all week really work.
Basically... this year's spring break is turning out to be exactly what I was afraid last year's spring break would be. Last year I was so worried that I was going to be bored and have nothing to do and nobody to talk to the whole time... but instead it turned out to not actually be so bad, and I even ended up going on a trip to Devil's Marble Yard. This year, though, I thought this week wouldn't be too bad... and instead, I've been bored and lonely pretty much ever since I got back here, have barely seen any of my friends (even though a decent number of them are still here), and definitely haven't had anything to do, either homework-wise (thanks to people hogging up the art building all day, mostly) or otherwise. Oh, and the power was out most of the day yesterday, so I couldn't even do anything at home.
Moral of the story: people who tell you that things will just magically work out if you "think positive" are full of shit. Expecting things to turn out okay (even though every single thing is pointing toward them most definitely not turning out okay) is the #1 way to guarantee that they don't.
I'm also starting to wonder if I even have friends here. I mean, friends aren't supposed to just sit by and let their friends die of boredom, right? I thought I had actual friends here, not the "forget you exist the second you're not in their field of vision" type of friends I had before coming here...
