This turned out kinda random . . . and depressing

I've half been doing homework in preparation for the worst midterms EVER tonight and half not doing anything at all.

Today was, well, interesting. Mom, Dad, Quint, Spice and Spice's BF (do I have a name for him? I don't think I do. Hmmm, they've only been together for a YEAR . . .) were in town. So M&D and Quint I ate breakfast together before I went over to the stadium with my friends for the football game.

The game was an exercise in depression. It was homecoming, you think we can do anything except get blown out of the water? Ugh. My school's football program SUCKS OUTLOUD right now. At least Wake Forest beat FSU on Thursday (Yeah, Varian, I'm totally rooting for you guys (as long as my team's not playing you)).

After the depressing loss, the fam and I went out to eat. Which was fun and enjoyable. Then they all left. Now I am feeling that special emptiness that comes from seeing someone you love just long enough to remember that you miss them when they're not around.

It was a really short visit. It was nice to see Spice and her boyfriend for the first time since Ireland. I guess I'll see them again at Thanksgiving.

Then, when I came back to the house, I found out that Emmy's cousin was killed in a car crash. On Thursday. You know how many times I've talked to Emmy since Thursday? And I had no clue. I feel terrible. I'm so freaking self-absorbed.

This diary is a prime example of that. Geez, do I ever talk about anything but myself (and how annoyed I am by my roommate)? It's kind of gross, when you think about it.

But in my defense, I don't really tell people in my real life a lot. Okay, scratch that. I may not spill my guts every other second, but I am still hella self absorbed outside the faux pages of this place. That's gotta stop.
