Sorry it’s been a while. College is crazy, and there’s something going on every single day. Parties don’t only happen on the weekends. They’re on Tuesdays and Thursdays too. Also on Mondays and Wednesdays. Every single day.
Classes are harder than high school. There are a lot of times I’m not even sure I can keep up with the work.
How are things going for you? And work? You started nannying for that new family, right?
You said you’re picking up a few night classes at a campus, right?
Did you hear about this new website called The Facebook? It’s only for college students, but it’s kind of cool. It’s a new way to connect to people. You should get on it. I’ll make sure to be your first friendship over there.
I’m mostly on that now, instead of AOL Instant Messenger, but I still keep signing on to see if you’re around when I have free time. You never are. Night classes don’t help any. Let meknow if you have any free time this week for a phone chat and maybe we can schedule it in?

Grey,
No need for the apologies, really. I knew you’d be busy. Every time I get to hear from you is always good in my book.
Things are going well so far, but I have to admit it’s a little hard working full time and going to school part time. I feel like whenever I do get a break, all I want to do is go to bed and sleep until the new year.
On the plus side, the kids I’m nannying are very fun! They keep me on my toes, and it keeps me busy. If I’m not busy, I have to be around my dad, and he’s way too sad to be around.
I wonder if he’ll ever get back to normal. The more time that passes, the more unlikely it seems.
I have my night class on Tuesday and Thursday, but maybe Friday night? Call me then?
