Back to school today. First class of the new semester is in the bag. Two more classes today, then to work. So goes my life for the next 3 monthes.
My vacation was a mixture of good and bad.
The Good: I did the number one thing I've wanted to for a while...RELAX!!! Did alot of sitting at home, reading, watching TV/Movies, no obligations. It was awesome. I also got some of my book written, not as much as I'd have liked to, but a start at least. I'm pretty happy with it so far, let's hope that continues. Went down to Baltimore area for the holidays. Got to see my wonderful little niece who is the cutest thing in the world. At just under three years old, she's already a little bitch. I love it. Example: Uncle Kyle is playing airplane with her, throwing her up and down, for about fifteen minutes. I put her down. She says "again." I say "I'm tired." She proceeds to run over to Aunt Kelly and says "your turn." So it was now Aunt Kelly's turn to throw her up and down for fifteen minutes. She is amazing.
The Bad: I felt like I did NOTHING this break. There were alot more things I wanted to do that I didn't. I really wanted to go snowboarding. I really wanted to go down to foxwoods at least once. Really wanted to get out of the house in general. I just feel like I don't do anything anymore. And now, I don't have time to. I have Fridays free after noon, but thats it. THe rest of my week is a strict scheduale. Part of the reason I haven't been able to do anything is money. Weddings are expensive things. Thankfully Kelly's parents are paying for most of it. We're pretty much on our own for the honeymoon though, so all our extra money is being saved for that.
I do still want to get out and do stuff though. Even if it's just going to someones house or someone coming over to the apartment just to hang out. If you want to do something, let me know. Like I said, I'm pretty much limited to fridays, but let me know.
I also feel like I've lost touch with alot of people I used to be close to, and I don't know what to do about it. I'm not the type of person to pick up the phone and have a long phone conversation. I always say, "I should call them soon," referring to a specific person, but then never do. I've tried to change that, but it's probably not gonna happen.
Oh well. After this semester I have 2 classes left to get my associates, then I'm transferring somewhere else. Don't know where yet. Don't really know for what yet either. Theres two possibilities I'm looking at. One being creative writing, the other being archeology. Bothe really interest me, but I think I'm leaning towards archeology. The way I look at it, I don't need a degree to write. I do need one for archeology. And If I go for archeology, there's nothing stopping me from taking a creative writing course or two while I'm there.
Lot's of things to consider and do, with not a lot of time. Wish me luck over the next 3 monthes.
