an update
hey, all. thought i'd post an update about my how my life's been recently.
i'm nearing the end of my first year at graduate school. it feels good to know that i'm nearly halfway done, but of course i have like 7 things due in the next 2 weeks, so at the moment i just wish i had more time.
the time thing. i wish i had more time, in general. i've had no time to create art, write music, perform, nothing. and that sucks! but i'm going to try to book at least a few gigs this summer, because i miss it so much. and creativity is a part of me. i'm much less myself when i don't create. it takes effort to keep that portal open, though.
in other news, for those of you who don't know, i'm engaged!! shay proposed a month ago and i, of course, accepted. we've set a ceremony date for august 10, 2007. we've begun planning already and have many ideas - looks like we might have a beach wedding. we're not sure yet, though. we're creating a website. when it's well under way, i'll post a link here.
i've been having a bit of a developmental crisis at the moment. that is, i'm beginning to feel old. i'm turning 25 in a couple months, and as i look around me, i realize: i'm a grownup. what is THAT about? don't get me wrong, i like being an adult and i would never want to go back to childhood, but like, i'm mapping out the next 5 years of my life and at the end of that map, i'm 30, having a kid, married, and 4 years into my career! people, that is weird. like, my housemates are going out partying all the time and at least acting young, and i'm only 24 and acting like i'm... i dunno... 31? anyway. just a slight crisis. it's not that i don't like where my life is going, because i totally do; i guess it's scary sometimes, that's all.
i've been sick for the last week and a half and am finally feeling somewhat human again.
so, my life's not very exciting in writing these days. just working, working, and loving.
that's all!
