Day Fifty-Five:

Well, my wandering solitude is gone. I got a new roommate today. She is very young, though, so far, seems very sweet. I'll be doing my first House Rep duties this evening. I'm actually feeling alot more confident about this responsibility. I just really don't want to make enemies my last month here, but I don't want people to walk all over me either. I'll have to find a nice balance. And, I promise, I will ask for help when I need it. my godmother made a funny joke on the phone this evening. She said, "Oh, Souza, first House Rep, next the Senate." Dumb, but funny at the moment. It made me snicker. But I can see she's really proud of me. And it feels wonderful to be gaining her trust back again. Slowly, but surely. That's how I need to look at everything in my life right now. And that's a much needed lesson to help curb my impulsiveness.
