The Week That Was Never Going To Happen

This week has been the longest ever and has felt like a never-ending weekend.  It started last Thursday when I did some 21^st birthday-planning-research at a bar, and continued into Halloween parties, preparing for Hurricane Sandy, celebrating classes cancelled and so much more.  Once everyone realized the potential of the storm we made sure we had the necessities and then locked our doors and intended on not leaving our apartment for two days.  It was such an odd feeling to be sitting inside and feeling the calm before the storm and just knowing that it was coming.  It felt like endless waiting.  With two days of classes cancelled, the weekend stretched on and it just felt like Halloween and my best friends’ 21^st birthday would never happen.  Eventually it did and with it did class.  After almost eight days straight of drinking and doing things I am exhausted.  I had so much fun at Halloween and Amanda’s twenty-first birthday, and I was lucky enough to see one of my best friends for a few hours today.  However, I am also devastated by the damage Hurricane Sandy has caused.  I was in constant contact with my family throughout the storm and am just happy everyone is okay.  My heart goes out to all those who were greatly hurt.  As I kept seeing pictures of the Jersey Shore, my heart was breaking.  The shore is home to my favorite place and I want nothing more than everything there to return to normal.
