I may not be getting out of school as early as many of you, but still...wow. I can't believe it's almost over. One more month, and then my first year of college is over.
Sure it's had it's lows, but really this year has been one of the most rewarding years of my life. I've changes so much, and I've really learned to stand on my own. Those parts of me that I'm not fond of, the ones that came creeping back into my life earlier on...I think I've finally defeated them. I've discovered the key to independent happiness. As Larry would agree, the "Fuck you, I'm gonna go get laid" lifestyle is one that makes life a lot less emotionally stressful. No, I don't mean I'm actually going out and having sex, it simply means that I'm able to let go of things either. If I don't like the way a person is, or if that person is hurting me (whether or not they know it), I simply let go and move on. I personally believe that people who don't treat you as well as they should, people who take you for granted, aren't worth your time. Moving on and away from those people makes life so much more enjoyable and so layed back. I don't know why it was so hard for me to do this, but really that doesn't matter. What matters is that I am in a good place right now, and I have college to thank for it.
It will be interesting to see how this mentality will fare back in Silverton. I imagine it will be okay. After all, why shouldn't it? Most people back home are really chill, and I don't foresee any times when I will have to deal with those who aren't. Ah well. Home will be a nice change, I suppose. And a break from writing papers everyday will be nice, too.
P.S. You all must listen to the new song posted on LSZ's myspace. This is probably the best thing I've heard from them...if you can say it's from LSZ, since it's just Shawn playing.
