Year twenty-six is halfway over. I was somewhat wary about turning twenty-six because it means I have gone past the halfway point of my twenties and, if how fast the last four years went by were any indication, thirty will be here in no time. Thirty, when Real Adulthood is supposed to begin, and with that Real Commitments and Responsibilities like ( Read more... )

I've been thinking a lot since my entry entitled Projects of Doom, and fortunately I'm starting to feel better about things.  I have this bad habit of comparing myself to others, which really makes no sense at all since, because of our differences in the way we view and approach our work, it's really impossible to compare me to a lot of other ( Read more... )

OK, I admit it, there are things about Drew I really miss.  The big one is routine/predictability/stability, particularly socially.  But I have come to realize and accept that there is no such thing as a perfect school.  No matter where I go there will be things that I love, and things that really bother me.  I should have expected that in ( Read more... )

The fact that these two features of paid accounts are still here even though I no longer have a paid ( Read more... )

Last night after Drewids left my house, I started feeling really nostalgic and had a random urge to start reading my LJ from the beginning of time (aka the beginning of my LJ, November 2004).  I like how I didn't discover LJ until I was a freshman in college, so my LJ truly is a record of my college years.  Well anyway, it was a really interesting ( Read more... )

Does anyone else think that life (in general, not your specific life) is really complicated and confusing?  I don't know, I've just been finding the past 2 years, since I went to college and learned more about the world and popped the little bubble I had around me, that I give myself a headache thinking about, well, anything really.  There are so ( Read more... )
