Went out for a very long walk - something between a walk and a hike, really - down to Tower Beach. I got rather thoroughly soaked, as it was raining, as well as being high tide, which means the beach doesn't quite exist in some spots, forcing me to dash through the surf and get my sneakers totally dripping wet.

But it was just want I needed - to step away from the internet, from school, from dorm stuff, from the rest of humanity, and to just chill. The combination of rain and high tide meant it was just me, the waves, and the seagulls, which was perfect.

So. Things are better now. Not totally perfect and wonderful, but life rarely is. I've been a right bitch to various people this week, and I'm sorry. I can't promise it won't happen again, but I promise I'll try.

And now, hot chocolate and video games are in order.
