I hope my dorm plant survived over break.***
Tomorrow second semester classes start and I feel actually rather excited. I'm taking some new classes, but alas must continue with Paideia. I hope very much that I will feel like I gained something valuable at the end of the year, so that I don't regret how much effort I've put in that class. But one very comforting thing about this semester is the oncoming warm weather, and as soon as the sandals, shorts, and slackline come out, I will be exponentially happier.
Break was pretty relaxing, and it was really nice to get some good home-cooked meals; I am pretty ready to be back at school with my Luther friends. It's weird how you can come to miss something as home when you've only been there for a couple of months. Right now in my room there are a bunch of guys playing an impromptu Mario Tennis tournament and I realize that these guys have made this place like home for me, not necessarily the building, or my room or my bed.
I think we are planning on going to the Ozarks for spring break; that should be awesome. Camping, hiking, climbing, just hanging out around a fire; it'll be something to keep me going after the novelty of new classes wears off and I get weary from the daily grind. I had to look for jobs over break though, and I fear that the summer that I once looked forward to so much will now be primarily a monetary endeavor. It's alright though. Once I get through college and can hop a train to nowhere I won't need to work at all :)
My first class tomorrow is at 12:15. I am very excited to get some good sleep this semester. Hope you all do as well.
Take is easy,
Danny
