Hello Sini-Girls and Sini-Boys, I hope you are all doing well. Personally, I could not be more wondeful. I am filled with a sort of excitement that I have really never experienced before. For the first time, everything seems to genuinely be going well, and there is so much to look forward to in the next week. First and foremost on Wednesday I will be driving to Wisconsin to visit, my sweet, wondeful love Elise. Words really cannot effectively describe how much I am looking forward to this trip. The thought of just being able to spend time with her makes me so incredibly happy. She is really a wondeful person in every sense. I am truly more excited about this than anything ever before. Also, on Saturday both Elise and I will be at the Chicago picnic. I want to tell Jim that he is awesome with a capital A for driving us! It will be nice to see the city of Chicago, since I have never been there before, and to meet some nice people from sinister. Im sure it will be a grand time. Some of you may remember from my last post that I was a bit unsatisfied with my school situation, luckily since then I have become far more content with the situation as a whole. I think having a generally better outlook on life has done wonders for that particular situation. I also pre-ordered the new Pulp album the other day from amazon.co.uk, which is immensely exciting! Rachel Fruitloop made a post recently about having to love one's self in order to love anyone else, and I think she was dead on right. It's quite amazing really, in the past month or so, I feel like I have finally come to love who I am. I always remember in the past, even in relatively good times, feeling inadaquate in a way, and just generally not thinking myself as too wonderful of a person. Now however that has really changed, feeling the way I feel about myself is something that I never really thought would happen, but it is quite a pleasant surprise to say the least. Haha, I feel so special actually being discussed, albeit briefly, on the list. Granted, im no sinister celebrity...but I suppose everyone gets their 15 minutes of fame. The weather has been so delightful lately. Cool and sunny, a perfect combination in my opinion! It makes being outside a pleasure, and even walking from class to class is pleasant on days like this. Yesterday I actually went for a really nice drive up to the mountains with my parents and siblings. We haven't really done any sort of activities together as a family in quite some time, so it was quite nice in that respect. We didn't really do anything special, but to be out and enjoying the wonderful weather we have been so lucky to have lately was quite nice...And they bought me lunch too! The scenery was very nice, and the whole area just seemed peacful. I like that...it's too easy to get caught up in the stressful aspects of day to day life, and a bit of a escape from that is lovely. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the city too, it is just nice to spend some time in the countryside occasionally. I was wondering if there are any people on the list from the MD, DC, VA or even southern PA, and if at somepoint in time they would be interested in having some sort of meet up somewhere? Well, I must go for now...I have tons of preperations to take care of for Wednesday! I can't believe my trip is the day after tomorrow!!!!!!!! I will see some of you on Saturday at the picnic. Love, Especially to Elise, Sean +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
