The End is Near

Friday is the day! All work must be submitted by Friday. Then I have one more week of school--just for good measure. I'll graduate on May 9, 2009. I want to be excited, but I have few friends here, fewer family members, and those friends that I have have already expressed their disinterest in attending my graduation. I'm pretty pissed, actually. I may actually have to hire a sitter for graduation so that I don't have to leave my son seated by himself while I walk. I haven't cried much through a lot of very hard and very sad shit in these last three and a half years, but I cried the other day over my friends and their lack of enthusiasm. Of course, this is no different than any other thing since I've been back, but it hurt quite a bit to hear that they can't be bothered with a 45 minute drive on my account. These same friends still wonder why in the world I miss Taiwan so much. I guess this is what one gets for being gone for so long. I should be feeling very excited now, but I'm really feeling crushingly lonley. I try not to have heavy blogs. I'm doing pretty damn good for myself I think, all things considering. I guess I just would like someone else to give a damn.
