24 hours of alone time isn't enough
Oh well, it happens, just kinda jealous and ranty.
on another note, I only get to see my love twice a week, which is no good especially since before camp I was essentially seeing her every day. And we both have our schedules set up for college, but of course we don't have a lot of free time together where I could catch the shuttle over to HVCC and hang out with her :/
Student orientation at RPI was pretty sucky too, I kinda failed at the socializing aspect of ti because that's just who I am, I spent the majority of the time just hanging out with Hannah because I already knew her, and I never really introduced myself to anyone besides this girl named Shawn and another girl named Luna, both of which were pretty awesome. Then I got shafted on my schedule and couldn't get into any of the time slots I wanted so now I have classes all day instead of right in the morning so I could get them out of the way. And apparently Hannah got shafted even worse than I did, so yeah the whole process was nowhere near as well thought out as it could have been in my opinion.
On a final note for today, I got into another fight with another one of my friends because of my ideologies. She tried to apologize but I spurned here and I don't really know if I should try to talk to her, right now it all just kinda disgusts me, but I guess on a better note I might be giving some older friends another chance, depending on the next few weeks.

Another Poem I found
Solitude
Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone.
For the sad old earth must borrow it's mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air.
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go.
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad, and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a long and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.

Summer
I have basically been playing nonstop magic for the last few weeks, and that's fun, we might try to turn my elf deck into a legit legacy deck, so that could be fun, if a bit expensive. I've officially worked my last day as a pizza boy for now, and have the week off till camp, why do I feel like its just going to be sitting around bored since I already only talk to like 5 people.
I've handed in the last of my things for RPI, at least that's what I thought until I got more main from them, saying I have to mail more stuff out by July 2nd, but at least this is just choosing where I was to go with some people from my freshmen class the week before school starts. Speaking of which, I have no idea what to do. There is a white water rafting one, and a rock climbing/spelunking one, a long hike at lake George, and a high ropes course, as well as more, and I have no idea which one I want to go to, they all sound awesome.
So, a weird thing happened to me today. Someone asked me why I stopped talking to someone, they said that they had heard a reason and really hoped I hadn't let something so small ruin my friendship. So I told them that I stopped talking to those people because they started doing pot. The person said that this was a stupid reason, that it was such a small part of their life that it shouldn't even matter to me, especially since they wouldn't do it around me. Idk, I just found it really odd, when I tried to defen my stance they just kept saying that I was overreacting about something so small, and then I realized 2 things, 1. that I would only have to deal with them for 1 more day and 2. that I was happier now, I had no trouble with the fact that I couldn't trust them anymore, they are just people again, albeit people who I used to be close to, but now they just don't matter, they're just 2 more of the pot heads at our school that I'll never need to associate with again.
