time's tide will smother you...
8.40 a.m. and i'm still awake. sheer craziness, i tell you! i haven't slept, i don't really feel like it, and i'm still procrastinating from doing anything functional, productive, or anything less than absolutely necessary. however, it's still hard not to feel guilty about being so utterly bored and unmotivated... i quit nordstrom waaay back in september, so i've been unemployed for the past six months almost! geez. now that i think about it, that's a fucking long time ago. i haven't been paying attention at all... i've spent almost four months in new mexico already! and where has the time gone, you ask? hmmm, well let's think. for september and october i was still living in portland, i went out a lot, hung out a lot, went to many shows, drank at many bars, got my party on, and generally had more of a life than i have now. since i've been living in new mexico i've spent too much time on the internet, watching movies and bad tv, playing grand theft auto, and i've taken six trips out of town (portland 2x, denver 2x, arizona/california and el paso/mexico roadtrips). next up in may is a roadtrip to the coachella music and arts fest in california, with some partying in san francisco immediately following after the fest, so basically it's due time i get a job! i'm going to be poor. very poor. but i'll have lots of fun in the meantime...
my current plan is:
- work my ass off.
- go to coachella.
- pay off my bills.
- save up money.
- travel the world.
- enroll at unm (use government scholarship).
- get my bachelor's in... nursing... maybe, probably, but not definitely.
- move to london.
voila! so there you have it - that's the thrilling synopsis of my life for the next five years or so - minus the sex, drugs, and rock and roll (that's gonna be in my e! true hollywood story.. you'll just have to wait).
