nearly 4 months of summer if you think about it since the day i finished exams, may 5th, the day turned i "turned" 21, and already i already feel like a different person. in more ways than one.
Being back home for soo long has brought back a lot of the person i use to be before college, and im not talking about the pot head, i actually havent touched any illegal drugs all summer. I havent really even gotten drunk, except for two or three times.
No ive been working really hard and going out with my friends and keeping myself occupied, and ive realised that even when im doing all these things i still have free time on my hands, which is a wonderful feeling, because now im finally getting things done whilst enjoying myself and then going out to keep on enjoying myself. Im on a good schedual waking up early in the morning and going to sleeep at a reasnable hour, usually by 1am. I feel happy and complete.
In the words of a great hispanic writter, "Loneliness is soo much more than a great companion"
I now better prepared to achieve what i want in life and who i want it to be with, i know better how i can be a better friend and most importantly do all the things that i want to do, because there never seems to be enough time, the answer were simple, they were right in front of me screaming themselves to me, i had just chosen to ignore them for a couple of year, actually i know what they were, i simply had forgotten.
Am i sad about what happened at the bigining of the summer, yes your damn right i am, because its never easy, its never nice, and it always hurts. but at the same time, its not all my fault, anyone who even remotly knows me knows i aspiere to never be a dick head and always try and make everyone feel better, i was in a tight spot with few options available that i was willing to do. I did what i felt i had to do, there are things i regret, but whats done is done, i wont as for forgiveness because i dont feel that i deserve to be forgiven, but at the same time i refuse to be painted as an evil person when i return to rice.
Summer is a lot long than i am use to, but at this age im glad that we have soo mch time to think about life and ourselves and what we want to become, because we are at an age were we can determine our own actions and are expected to take full responcibility for them, even if we dont always fully understand them.
It been to long since ive seen all of my friends from rice, i cant wait to get back to houston, go for a TC run, just not as often :).
either way expect to see me soon, i arrive the 18th, i cant wait to talk to you guys, because as much as ive changed over the summer, im sure that you guys have as well, its called growing up and none of us can escape it... except for Adam, he is still like 8, but thats why i love him.
