Christmas Break, Hurry Up!

Anyone who doesn't really know me might think that my blog's name might be somewhat sincere.  It never really was...  I can't really say that I hate Provo.  In fact, I feel quite the opposite, I've enjoyed my time here quite a bit.  Some of the people here.... ehhhh... let's say I've been able to surround myself, more or less, with people that I can agree with and understand.  I've had cycling, which lets me view so many of the beautiful things that this area has to offer, and has introduced me to a whole new way of thinking.  But I've been here a long time, and quite frankly this is not an area that I plan on spending the rest of my life in.

Recently more than ever I've felt like I need a break from "happy valley."  I haven't been able to nail down exactly what it is.  It could be the long amount of time it's been since I was able to see Virginia.  Perhaps it's the people around here that I don't actually agree with, and don't understand.  Maybe it's the thoughts that I've still got another 2 years of school to go.  Whatever it is, it's starting to get to me.  I feel like I need a break.  I know I can't take off any time for school, but it would be nice to just be able to not before around here for just a little while.  If NOTHING else, it would be a relief to just not have to put up with petty Provo drama.  I've never been one for that crap.  But that's not exactly something I can just will one way or another.  It's always around here, as sad as it is.  

Either way, I'm venting.  I don't think it's really helping anything, so I'm going to stop.  Just crossing the fingers that somehow Christmas break sneaks up quickly.
