good news/bad news

A quick update. Kristen left today for India (to the city of pigs) and will fly out tomorrow afternoon.

Grades are in, I have a 4.0 this semester. I am working at Modern again this summer and soon to be looking for job2.1

Yeah, so those are backwards. I started with the news that is good for kristen and bad for me and then the news that is good for me. I have 3.67 cum (bad first semester).

Congrats on the 4.0! I got a 3.88-and I'm thrilled because that means a B+ in Spanish!

I know that this if an awful status indicator, but I feel special because of how important I am to your title right now. Are you going to keep it? Or is this part of letting go for ten weeks? And yes, I do like it. I laughed.
By the way, I miss you. Already. Tomorrow, for my 22 hours and 35 minutes of flight, I will miss you that much more. Maybe, I think, the next time I decide to go to India, I shall have you with me. : )

heheheh, Kristen, hindsight is everything, no?

The new title has sent the rest of us scampering for cover, though.

Just make sure you have a blast, Kristen! (that wouldn't be a bad idea for you, either, Mendon - please, would you make sure you enjoy the lake for me this summer? Here I am on the Mediterranean and I can't go swimming in it b/c it is FILTHY!!)

Kristen isn't even in India yet and i already can feel her absence. I think that this summer is about to become dedicated to praying and working and occassionally hanging out with my friends from school (which reminds me about Jen and Corey). Other than that, I will be doing little. Maybe the beach with pappa occasionally.

As for finding cover, there will be no reach as this great and mighty (hot) wind of Mendon reaches the farthest corners of the world. Kristen is gone and I'm going to be crabby now!

Oh wow! I didn't even get to say goodbye! I wish Kristen much love and safety.

Hey Mench! I'm coming home this friday (or possibly earlier if you contact me soon). We should definately hang out. Congrats about the grades too.

Andrew! You're here too, yay! I didn't send my mass email out to you (you weren't in my yahoo inbox. Mendon, will you forward that to Andrew? Please? : ) Sorry I couldn 't say goodbye. I ran out in a hurry.
Mendon, don't be too grumpy. You'll find your support, you'll hear plenty from me. There's no reason for which you can excuse your actions. At least, not one provided by me. : )
And Mensch, you're right. This summer will be dedicated to working and praying. I'm in the same boat with you. I feel your absence as well and remember how awful it was when you left for Gambia. I felt like my chest and body was caving in on itself for a while. Not fun. You'll get used to me being gone; I'll get used to India, and you won't lose readers on your blog. : )
