Hi! So this blog died. I am reviving it - I used to be a certified lifeguard/wizard, so I have the powers needed to do this.
This is my last week of winter break, and I am currently sitting in a Panera Bread with my mom, while she reads my dad's book and ignores me. There's a fire burning in the elegant hearth to the right of my table...and I just realized that the wood is fake (which is good, because I've developed a new allergy to wood). There is a lovely group of women sitting at the table next to mine, who have been here the entire time I have with notebooks, drawings, and spreadsheets spread out all over. From their conversation, I've garnered that they're either planning a library area, park, or quilt. I finished my sandwich, and the wifi in here sucks so I can't go on tumblr.
Seems like a good time to write.
This break has been a weird one. The majority of it was spent processing last semester, and then sorting through my feelings about Marlboro. By the end of December, I had assessed how Marlboro had affected me as a person, and I was ready to start deciding what changes had been good ones, and what I wanted to do differently next semester.
This is when I chopped off all my hair.
It seems to me there are two of me - Marlboro Molly and Marblehead/Boston Molly. I know this is obviously something that happens when you go away to college. But the problem is...I like Marblehead/Boston Molly a whole lot more. There's nothing wrong with Marlboro me. She's great too. But she doesn't run every day and her hair was all long and she was floating around not really knowing who she was or what she was doing. Typical first semester problems, I think.
Anyway. I cut my hair off because I want to mesh these two people together. I want to bring Marblehead Molly back with me to school. I've missed her. So I guess this is just going to mean more thinking about myself. As if I don't already do that enough already...
Happy 2012! And welcome back, Booth Blog.
