In the end...

So a real update...wow.

It's almost the end of my final semester in college. I actually can't wait until its over. Looking back at my experiences since I graduated from high school, I've learned quite a bit- and not just from my classes (although, believe it or not, I think I might have learned something in those too.) State schools are actually really good, despite the fact that most people do dumb things and then say "Well, I go to Southern". Hey, I've done it. But in all honestly, transferring from King's, a really small, narrow-minded population where I was thought to be a Satanist simply because I tended to dress Goth and dye my hair all kinds of colors, to SCSU, where you do have people who think that way, but they are the minority (and mostly belong to Campus Crusade for Christ) was a great decision in the end. I think I've gotten more of an eduction by going to Southern, as there are more sources to learn from. I also have a job I love, with people I love to work with, for the most part. How many people can say that?

Right now, I'm two days away (counting today) from completing my last college show. It's an amazing feeling. During the tech process, something I usually love to go through, I realized that I'm sitting with people who are acting like 4 year olds, in an environment that should be slightly professional. I've gotten past the stupid games and jokes and just want to go to work and get stuff done. Not the way this tech went. But I'll miss everyone most likely when I go see the musical in the fall. It happens.

There's been quite a few other big changes in my life. One of them people know about, but only those who need to know...and that's the way I'm keeping it for at least a few more days. I'm also beginnnig to learn who I can count on when I need a friend. There are very few people. Mat made a very good point by telling me to do whatever makes me happy, as most people don't appreciate when you do something nice for them. And I know that. There's one or two people who do, and those are also the ones I've found I can rely on the most when something goes wrong. (Thank you both)

This summer is beginning to look good. I'm working dance recitals at Lyman again. 14 days, 115 hours, yay money. I also need to try to find a job for Sept, but I've got a bit of time to do that. I've also been making other plans for the summer. I really want to do at least one road trip, and I hope my plans work out in that matter. I just need to get away for a little while and see new things. A couple people have mentioned things, both I'd love to do, I just hope they work out.

Well, time to get ready for a long day of shows.
