Been a VERY VERY long time.
SO. Uh. It's been a while. The end of my semester got really really busy and I never found any time to update. A lot has happened since my last update. I got a job. I've moved into an apartment. I really like how both of those are turning out. I've reconnected with some old friends, who I thought I would never talk to again. It's nice to reconnect. Anyway, I don't know about you guys, but I'm finding this Christmas to be especially depressing for some reason. I just can't bring myself to be excited about it. It's like all of the magic of Christmas has disappeared for me. Christmas music isn't even helping. After working at World market where everyone is constantly complaining about buying stuff for Christmas, it seems dumb. I was talking to a woman at Walgreens today, and she pointed out that even though people are getting together as families--they're just pretending to be happy. It occurred to me that this is true. Now, I guess it just feels like Christmas is just a big lie. There is NO goodwill towards men, no good for goodness sake. Maybe that's the problem, the stark realization that Christmas has boiled down to capitalism. Oh well. Maybe I'll get some cheer when I go home.
