I'm leaving tomorrow at 1pm. I have two things left to do: get a haircut, and get an adapter for European plugs so I can plug my cell phone, camera, and iPod in. Oh yeah, I got a new iPod. A 60GB iPod photo.

So I won't be writing until at least the 7th of June or so.

Another thing. I'm angry. Like the deep down in your bones, slow-burning, all-consuming anger that I was feeling all last week. I don't know where it came from. Probably from the stress of packing, and from the anger about MCP again. Just mad that I'll be graduating with the class behind me. I'm glad to be taking a semester off, but it hurts my pride (a lot) that I'm a year behind. I almost put a hole in my closet door out of frustration. It's strange because I've been in such a good mood for the last week or so. I'm just a little burned out on work and life right now. I've not really had a break since Monday. I don't like being angry. It's like the Dark Side of the Force: it gives you strength and sustains you, but at terribly cost. It leaves you feeling weaker and emptier than you were before. I don't like being angry.

Truth be told, as much as I try to keep my overactive ego in check, my feelings are (and always have been) that I'm smarter than everyone else that I've ever met. To let my ego speak freely for a minute, I've only ever met one person that I felt was truly smarter than me, and could actually keep up with me when I'm going full-bore.

(Okay that's enough of that, because egos are almost never right about their owners.)

Note to the people that like to post comments: I didn't say I was smarter than everyone else, just that my conceited side likes to burn me up sometimes. Logic is such a poor substitute for emotion when dealing with feelings: the emotion always wins out over the logic. I guess it's a good thing then that people see our actions and not our feelings. (How fucked would you (and me) be if everyone knew what we were feeling at a given moment? That asshole at the register that you wish would just drop dead, but instead it's "Hi, are you picking something up today?" Yeah. You know what I'm talking about.)
