weekend update

The wretched: Exam last friday. Enough said about that.

The good: Last week, I spent some time in Montreal and Sherbrooke. It was nice to have a little change of scenery, and practice my French-speaking skills (which are evidently a little rusty!). The weekend has been quite exciting as well - Radiohead on Friday (awesome), and a great wedding last night. It was the first wedding of a really close friend, that I've attended as a guest, so it was pretty cool to be there. You could see that there was a lot of love, joy, relief in the room!

The not-so-good: Without going into a lot of detail, someone I am very close to seems to have dropped off of the face of the earth. It began when she left for an amazing vacation. She didn't tell me she was leaving until she had already left. I didn't hear anything from her while she was gone, except for a post card, and she didn't call me or email me to let me know she had returned. She had mentioned that she'd be back at the end of June, so in late July when I still hadn't heard from her, I called her house to see if her parents had heard anything, and mostly to just see if everything was okay. Much to my surprise, she was home, and had been for a while.

The ugly truth: It's disappointing that when you've been friends with someone for most of your life, they can't seem to tell you how they really feel.
