so now that my computer is finally working again (which means I don't have to buy a new one right away)that I haven't been on this site since February. odd. or not.

anyways, life has been pretty hectic in my neck of the woods, mainly with classes, my internship, and being the director of student activities at school...its alright though, its nice to be busy for the most part. it keeps me occupied and out of trouble. I rarely drink anymore, which is probably a good thing. I'm like the old guy now who leans against the bar, has one beer, and then goes home. its overrated.

no love interest. that area is still bland. I'm fine with that though. one thing I've learned over the course of this year is that its not worth stressing about. the difference between trying and not, is that trying causes me to exert more effort, when in actuality the ending tends to be the same.

my internship is seeming more pointless by the day though. journalism really isn't where I want to be in life. its far too stressful for the amount of compensation. I do have a couple clips coming out this week though to add to my already sterling portfolio of bullshit.

I went to a conference a week or so ago for work in St. Charles, Ill. which is the second one that I've been to for it. in some miniscule way it makes me feel important. like i'm not rolling along without doing anything productive besides school. I do get my bachelors in May though, that's exciting. and I was offered a graduate assistantship to a couple of places if I want to continue studying, which never hurts. its a pretty righteous deal too, they would give me: tuition coverage, a paid stipend, a fully furnished apartment for free, meal plans, health care, the whole nine yards. if I don't find a job right away, I'll do it just to be productive. I mean its free school and getting paid, and a masters/doctorate couldn't hurt right?

I've decided that in May, when I graduate I'm leaving one way or the other. by myself. I need new places, and new faces. I want to experience something new and with no one I currently live with. hah. everyone has to move on and that will be my time.

as the road goes, I will follow...
