worn.

i am completely and undeniably exhausted. i wish that i could say it was because i was up late every night riding bikes around the city or maybe even because i had a little too much to drink and was out dancing until people were leaving for work and school.

while i love studying arabic and i reap the rewards of that work everyday, i am simply exhausted. this entire summer has been like one continuous finals' week and i can't bare to think that i have four more weeks of grinding this out before i have to move and get right back to all of it. on top of this particular stress, a few other things have been plaguing me, like that i miss my family and that i am extremely lonely. you can only spend so much time by yourself, doing homework and eating and sleeping alone in a house that is almost always empty before it gets to you. and it is not like i don't go out and do things, i totally went and saw the dark knight this afternoon, but i didn't really get to talk to anyone and even if i did i feel as if i'd have nothing to talk about... unless you want to talk about arabic homework, which of course is the reason i couldn't hang out after the movie.

woo hoo. al-wajib al-arabiyya, here i come.
