home!

In less than 5 days I will be home. And with how fast time flies here, Wednesday will be here in no time.
No guarantees on time flying during the 9 hour buss ride, in the middle of which I have to sign up for part of my classes for next quarter....luckily there should be wifi on the bus (probably slower than turtles), my iPhone (pain in the ass to do real work on), or the possibility of outsourcing it to someone with a real computer and wireless connection should I need.
I have no clue what I will do for 9 hours on a bus- probably watch the other people doing nothing for a large portion of the trip, maybe try and read, play games on my phone, attempt to nap and fail. Car trips are rarely fun, bus trips...potentially worse, I haven't really had one yet.
But it will be so worth it. I haven't seen my family or friends in what will be over 2 months- which isn't too terribly long when you consider time on a lifeline measure, but it has felt like a very long time. Yet at the same time, it seems like it could have been last week that I was moving in, since every day feels kinda like the last. Eat, class, eat, waste time, possibly more class, hang out in hallways, go for a walk, bug people in their rooms, gather 17 people to go eat and mob the dining hall, eat too much, come home for 8 more hours before going to bed- do I have no clue what during those 8 hours after dinner, since homework is saved exclusively for Sunday or possibly the day before class if something comes up sooner during the week.
I hope they won't assign much work for over the thanksgiving break, I have a lot to do during those few days.
I need to make a list of things to remember to bring back. So far it includes pillows, Qtips, more pepto, leggings, sheets?, more clothes that I left behind, super glue, and many things that I won't think of until I get back to school and go dammit, I need that. But then I get to come home again like 2 weeks after for a whole month. I can't wait.
