Anticipation

When something really exciting is on the horizon, it's difficult to stay in the now.
For example, Andrew is coming to campus this weekend! I know that right this second he is in the car, driving, making the 8 hour trek.
And I'm meant to be doing homework and going to biology. I would like to just sit around and daydream until he is here, but I also would like to have a lot of homework done so that I can really focus when he is here. There's something to be said about living in the moment. If I'm always looking forward at "Up Next" then I'm not enjoying the current segment, right? Something like that.
In other news, the university got ourselves a new president today. So that's pretty neat.
AND the cafeteria had peppermint stick ice cream! Hooray for Christmas! Oops, there's that overeager anticipation not living in the moment thing again.
It is, perhaps, more appropriate and acceptable to anticipate something happening later today than something happening later this year. It's like 6 hours away. But who's counting?

What a goober.
