Healthy Computer!

Hello World,

I know it's been awhile since my last post but I ask that you forgive me, because I just (and by just I mean Friday) got my laptop back from the computer hospital! Anyway, I'm sitting cross-legged on my green shag-rug, in my dorm room, a little annoyed that I've let it grow so messy, but otherwise, I am completely content. There's a lot I haven't told you, World. For instance my roommate moved out. It may sound rude or cold, or unsympathetic of me to say this, but it was not a major loss. We got along fine, and occasionally discussed plots and twists of various tv shows, but there was no serious bonds of friendship formed there, and while it's weird that I never see her anymore, I'm relishing in the extra space that her departure left me with.

What else is new? Well after months of nagging, pleading, and forceful reminders a friend of mine has finally got me to adopt a new pen pal. I was hesitant to jump on this opportunity because this said pen pal is in jail. I don't remember what he did to end up where he is, but I have faith that my friend wouldn't corner me into a questionable situation. I wrote my first letter to him today. At first it was kinda weird to write to someone I've never met and know virtually nothing about. After several awkwardly formed sentences I realized that it sounded like I was applying for a job, so I channeled the blogger within me and was surprised how easily the words flowed after that. I ended up writing him almost two pages, it was somewhat therapeutic to know that someone else will not only be reading my words, but craving them. By the time I finished addressing the envelope I found myself already anticipating his response. I don't know when he'll respond, but I assure you that I will keep you updated!

Hmmmm, I'm trying to think if there is anything else notable in my life right now....OH...I've been rereading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. Don't ask me how many times I've read the HP series because I have lost count. Why do I keep rereading the Harry Potter books? Because I still haven't lost interest. In fact I become more invested in the wizarding world and the characters each time I read the books. I feel a friendship with Harry, a kinship with Hermione and don't even get me started on Ron. I crave a connection to the wizarding world. Sometimes I wonder if I would have powers if this was a real phenomena, but then I remember that I'm awesome, so of course I would! I don't think you realize how badly I want to go to the Harry Potter theme park.
