I'm writing this from the corner of my living room where I have taken up temporary residence. My mom's staying in my apartment until we drive home tomorrow so I'm sleeping on the floor out in the living room. Diane sold the couch yesterday so the room looks very strange. Also, the electric air pump for the air mattress isn't working, so last night wasn't very fun for me...yeah.
Anyway, my apartment is basically a war zone of books and boxes right now. I have too many books. I'm resolving right now not to bring as many back with me next year!
I was at the Newman House yesterday and Kirsten showed me all the new pictures that are on the wall - if you're still in town you should definitely check them out before you leave! Also, update on The Class of 2010 Memorial Chapel...we now have a rug (maybe two), courtesy of Angie and Emily and their fantastic scavenging skills. We also have lots of fake ivy and blue roses that I donated. The room smells really, really mildewy and my mom recommended that we get a dehumidifier installed in the basement to help dry things out. Looks like this might be a bit more of a heavy duty project than we intended. Anyway, hopefully we'll be able to make everything work! :-) I'm super excited about it.
I just want to thank all of you for being such a consistently positive influence in my life and for being - well, your wonderful selves. This year was really rough for me and you guys were some of the people who really helped lift me up when I was down. So, thank you, gracias, grazie mille, danke, merci, and děkovný (what I think means thank you in Czech).
Peace,
Claire
