And I leave for "home" on Saturday (tomorrow). I haven't been able to really sleep lately because I'm rather apprehensive of the alarmingly long (It's a WHOLE MONTH!) Christmas "vacation" coming up. I will be spending roughly four weeks of my life with my family, the older members of which still do not know of my (ahem) "orientation." I suppose the reason for them not being informed of this was that I hadn't really informed MYSELF of this fact until I arrived at College and gradually realized that "gay" did NOT mean all the horribly misinformed and destructive things that my parents (especially Mom) told me it meant. Therefore, I am fearful (for lack of a better word) of spending such a long time in a place that has such possibility for a potentially un-favorable situation.

Maybe I'm just a little paranoid. After all, they never noticed anything before but that was when I was still trying to convince myself that I was straight because - as I already mentioned - I thought I was doomed for sure thanks to my Mother who was acting with the "best of intentions" when she informed us of the "evils of the world" (okay, that's a bit more dramatic than how she presented it but still...)

Well, I guess I'll try to go to bed so I can wake up early and enjoy as much of tomorrow as possible in the relative paradise that is College. Sorry I dumped this on you all; I usually try to keep my problems to myself because I feel that they are so relatively insignificant to the pressing ones that usually get discussed here but seeing as how it's three thirty-nine and no one's occupying the couch right now I thought I'd take a turn.

That's it; I promise. Talk to all of you later.
