Remember me?

Sep 08, 2007 12:34

It's strange for me to be so involved in the "real world." Even when I was little, I always invested myself in something less tangible, like the imaginary worlds of books or the internet that I let take over my life for the better part of 4 years...

But, I want a little bit of that virtual experience back in my life. So, I've started reading again and am trying to keep one eye peeking into the places I used to spend my time.

Ultimately, though, I don't have a lot of choice. I'm taking 18 credits, including 1 research credit, working at Tech Support, keeping engaged with UPhi, helping Nicole manage GSA so that it'll be easier for her to do it alone next semester, finding time to socialize like a normal college student and trying to balance the long-distance boyfriend through all of this. It's a busy time for me, but I love it. I like being totally immersed in the things around me.

So, for those who haven't been keeping up with me, this summer I moved out of my mom's house, had an incident with Border Patrol (ask me about it), was in two accidents, totaled my car once, worked at Papa John's, and negotiated my financial aid down to a point where I can pay the remaining balance after grants and aid to something my bank account can (barely) handle. There are other things too, like the "stripper delivery," and a certain addition to my increasing collection of body mods, but like the Border Patrol story, you'll have to ask.

All in all, everything is going great, although I am struggling to remember what I used to write here.
