Thank you for all your kind words. It's actually nice knwoing that there are a few faces out there that I've never seen who are thinking good thoughts about him. I'm sure you would have loved him.
While I was on a break during round 2, a good friend of mine came to visit me in the student center and I told him the news, whereupon I started crying and one of my RGs came over and offered to talk if I needed anything. I didn't have the heart or stomach to say the words again, but I frankly thought I scared her and the other two off, haha. I think I might go ahead and tell them during round 3, so I can explain my outbursts and whatnot. I was debating whether or not I should tell the girls I talk to in the houses. I don't want them to think I'm trying to play a sympathy card or soemthing. (Hell, I didn't even want to say it on here.) With a few of the girls I felt a slight connection with it was actually hard to fight the urge to just blurt out everything all at once. It's always somehow easier to tell complete strangers things (usually in gruesomely intimate detail) than people you actually know. I think I may take the concensus and tell at very least my RGs. While home I've been seeing people I love and who love me, so its nice - a well received break from the "speed-dating" cycle of rush. I'm excited to get back into it and the suspence of knowing which houses are on that schedule is killing me. I keep thinking about two houses in particular, telling stories of the girls I met to my mom, who seems fairly excited by the whole thing. She doesn't really understand the process, but she's very supportive and hopes I wind up where I would like to wind up. Whats kind of nice is that my dad has a front row seat to the whole thing, I know he'll be happy no matter what I do.
I've been out the whole day, its time for some WIll and Grace and sweatpants!
