Okay, so I've never shared it here on LJ, but it's been quite a crazy June. First of all, I moved dorms. Away from the comfortable yet capitalist dorm and into the strange world of the University Residences inside of the campus. I still haven't gotten used to it, honestly. I'm still very much used to the system inside of MyPlace. And the University Residences make for a very different world. But I'll definitely get used to it in time. I don't have constant internet there, though. Apparently I have to ask for it to be installed myself.
In other events, around the second week of the school year, my grandfather (on my mother's side) died of heart failure. We did see it coming as his body was already deteriorating from diabetes and such, but it was still a sudden death. And for a week, everything has gone into a stand-still. His funeral was yesterday. And that day was also the birthday of my eldest guy cousin, also on my mom's side.
Maita, a friend of mine who I met though Marts and Cat, asked if we were close. I said that I couldn't say so, but we-- my family and my grandfather-- lived in the same house for a large part of my life, until I was 17. And then she hugged me and went, "You were close."
I guess she had a point there.
Let's have some contemplative Lumie shots under the cut.
