Sad Day at Camp Champ

I just checked my mymail account for my school's portal.  Apparently, some kid in my grade died last night after going off campus to visit friends.

Last night, Champ. had a Halloween Dance.  Ryan came.  I walked Ryan "home", except then he walked me back to Main St. because we both realized that it is kind of sketchy in Burlington at 12:30 am.  After finally going our seperate ways, I decided to run, all the way back to my dorm.  I have not had the motivation or urge to run in about three years.  Coincidence that someone happened to die the same night, probably after attending the same dance I did?  I seriously doubt it.  I am a FIRM believer in my instincts, and it has saved my A$$ on more than one occasion.  I am also a firm believer in watching out for myself, and realizing when I don't feel safe, and BOOKIN' it out of there as soon as that happens.  Everyone-PLEASE be careful around Halloween time.  I know it's a LOT of fun, and it can be if you do the holiday right.  However, I know there are a lot of stupid, spur-of-the-moment decisions that people sometimes make, and those mistakes lead to big trouble.  I don't know about you, but I like my friends.  I would do anything to protect them.  So please, just keep everyone safe, and save the stupid stuff for a night that everyone isn't walking around drunk looking for other people to mess with.

On a lighter note, Ashley is coming home with me tonight!  I am leaving my laptop here so unfortunately I will not be in contact with you all for a while, but not like you'll be avidly awaiting my next entry on the evening of Halloween.  Psh, who does THAT?!  If you have a life, I would suggest that you get out there and use it.  :)

I'm also taking a "SHIT TON" (thanks again to Velvet for this awesome term) of laundry home with me this weekend.  My duffle bag is going to consist of a TON of clothing, and my hair brush, tooth brush/toothpaste/floss/fluoride, deoderant, and perfume.  Except maybe not even perfume, I have some of the cheap stuff at home that I need to use up. :)  So yeah, good times.

Well, other than the good time I had at the dance last night with Jess, Velvet, Ashley, Joe, and Ryan, not too much is happening for me.  Just kind of hanging in there for the moment.

As I have nothing of further interest to speak of at this moment, I will sign off.
Love you all,
Megan

P.S. Do you ever feel kind of like Pocahontas when the leaves blow and billow up and around you?  Because I know I do. :)
