life and wireless mice

One birthday gift I received this year from my family was the wireless mouse for my macbook... super exciting!! unfortunately, it doesn't scroll down anymore. today it just decided to quit. It scrolls up and to the sides.... but not down. I'll definitely have to look into that.

Other than that, life is fine besides the fact that it is dealing itself to me in frustrating ways. I feel like I don't even understand myself anymore. College is the time when I feel this, have a few years of confusion, and then the self-understanding is supposed to follow!! right? Since being at home this summer, away from my friends at school, I have just found myself lacking people to imitate and think like. All of my friends carry some sort of quality that I just wish I had, and I try to ascertain it by mimicking them, and thus making it my own quality. I don't think this is wrong, as long as the characteristic is an honorable one, but now I am just wondering about who I really am, friends aside. I don't have opinions readily offered when I am in a situation and I find myself baffled at how hard it is to look at all sides of a situation by myself!!!

...I feel like I'm in high school again now that I'm home, and I don't like it. I'm not ready to grow up either. Or maybe I am, but the concept scares me. I just wish that the troubles of life could be solved like the problem my mouse is having with its scroll button. An bit of an inconvenience, but nothing more complicated than a phone call to tech support for a solution.
