confuseacatWow, this was a uniquely crappy easter. When I wandered around the dorm around dinner time, I happened to see Meredith and friends coming home from some easter thing. They had pretty white skirts and easter colored tops on. Then the second floor lounge got converted into a really nice eastery looking dinner place with table settings. I wish I did something today.
My brother spent the day with my mom at home. My dad spent easter alone. My grandmother (yia-yia) recently came back from the hospital so didn't really feel up to hosting greek easter this year. I miss this times when I'd wake up to see easter bunny footprints leading to my easter basket. I miss jelly bean hunting at my grandparents house and all the greek easter stuff. I miss chocolate egg hunting at my aunt and uncle's house. My mom did send me some easter stuff in the mail though. She's sweet like that. ^_^
Some things just happen to work out well for some people without any effort at all. This is great when it works, but the first few times it doesn't you're just left sitting there sad and confused. I think now that I'm getting older, less of the old holiday stuff just happens. The quality of everything has gone way down. Christmases are not as fun or energizing, as people no longer enjoy the effort required to trim a tree or set up decorations. Thanksgivings no longer involve a big family get-together, as some people have died, some people have broken up, and some people can't be in the same room with other people. Everyone's just getting older in my family with no new youth to make everything automatically energetic and fun.
So I guess what I've got to do is figure out how I can make things work out since they're no longer working out on their own. Getting dressed and going to church would have been good today. I'm sure there were easter things happening on campus I could have gone to. I should have looked into them. You gotta be active and try to figure out what you want and how to get it. Planning is important when you want to make something better for next time. Who wants to stay unhappy?
Bed time.
