Standin' in line to see the show tonight...

Tonight was a genuinely good night, one of the best in a long time.

I would like to begin this entry by saying that Ash is my favorite ever and I love her, so please don't mistake any of the following as me being dissatisfied with her as a roommate. Since I have to have a roommate, I am very glad it's her.

That said, I LOVE MY SOLITUDE.

My depression has completely evaporated in the past two days. It's wonderful. I figured out why I've been having so much trouble with the season change and how to combat it; I'm also making up my sleep deficit and enjoying writing again. Truly, this is an amazing experience.

I love coming back to a room that's mine. This was one of the bonuses of Anderson 434 (bonuses that, I might add, were few and far between)... I had complete privacy. My roommate was never, ever there, and I essentially had my own room. True, I hated having my own room, because it meant I had to deal with the neighbors by myself, but it had its ups. Lisa, my roommate last semester, was constantly out studying, so it was a similar situation. In contrast, Ash is always in the room. It works because we get along well. Nonetheless, I think I'm resolving to spend more time off campus, because I'm more productive there, as well as more relaxed. So that's exciting.

Of course I'm still looking forward to her glorious return... the empire will once again be whole. Muahaha.

Tonight I worked the NARC from 7:30-2:30... well, that's what I'll be getting paid for, but I actually kept it open until after four. I had a great time. Various members of McDowell 7 (who are quite fun) were in the room for the majority of the night. I caught up with Sam, met a few interesting people, watched Batman Begins for the 432nd time, and played several good rounds of pool. Even better, I wrote about 2300 words on Guardian, and I'm now on a chapter where the action picks up. HUZZAH! I'm looking forward to resuming my writing when I'm done with this entry. (1100 more words to go tonight.)

I can't remember the last time I felt this good. I love the silence.
