Well, today was actually a somewhat decent day. I went with a girl who lives across the hall from me, Marin, and her school friend to the Philadelphia Art Museum. It was really nice. I needed the serenity of looking at paintings, gazing at the brilliant works people can develop from their minds to canvas. We went to the American Art wing, a place I hadn't been to since I went on a middle school field trip. Even then, I didn't get very far into it before turning around. It was quite amazing, exploring all the nooks and crannies of the museum. I found the little, dimly lit room that held the Degas pastels, and I was just blown away to see his work up close. Also, I was able to gaze lovingly at his statue of the fourteen year old dancer, with the aging tutu and hair ribbon in tact. I was just...awed. Artwork brings out the awe factor in me.

I haven't talked to Libby at all, and I told her to get back to me. But you know what? I don't really mind anymore. It's okay now. If I lose her as a friend, I guess it was just for the best. These things are just too tiring for me, trying to figure it out. At the end of the day, I have really great friends here. Friends who call me. Friends who want to hang out with me. Friends who remember me. Friends who want to do something because they enjoy my company, not because they are bored.

Next weekend I'm going out to North Carolina. I really need this vacation, and it will be nice to catch some nice weather.
