Young Modern
Young Modern is my newest cd, as just released by Silverchair in case anyone is curious. Bet most of you didn't even know they were still alive. It's pretty good. They've changed so much from Frogstomp it's unreal, but I still love them and I'm really happy to hear new music.
As for me, life has been great. I've been super happy. Minus the Apt drama induced by my father that was quickly settled, no major issues. I'm looking at a studio apartment in Torrington that I found out about through my dad's mortgage broker. The area seems pretty good. The houses are really close together, but I don't plan on living there forever, so no big deal. I'm kind of iffy about the whole studio apartment thing though. One big room for all the other rooms? I like having an entirely different room set off for my bedroom. I can combine my kitchen and living room with no major issues, but I just hope the "bedroom" area is a little more secluded. I mean, I haven't decided yet on it, the landlord is supposed to be sending me pictures this weekend. It's kind of interesting though. When I first talked to him, he was saying how he wanted to repaint the apartment, which made me think of how when I got my own house I wanted to paint my bedroom a light almost icy or baby blue. Guess what color he wants to paint the apartment? Blue, and he's going to let me pick out the shade. Seems almost too convenient. The apartment has a dishwasher...again, how convenient. The apartment is ALL utilities including cable included for 700 a month. Not bad. I'm almost afraid that it all sounds so good, and it's so easy, that I'm just going to hop on it and then end up not liking the place at all. That would not be good.
I still love my apartment now, but I'm afraid that if I don't leave and I don't get out, I never will. I'll stay at my dead end job, get a useless liberal arts degree, and stay in the same place forever just because it's easy. I'm afraid that if I don't take this risk, I never will. I think I need to. Torrington is only about 20 or 25 min from Central University, which I have wanted to go to since I found out they had an archaeology department a couple years ago. I saw a professor on a history show I was watching. Hartford is about 45 min away. Not a very good commute, but there is an national guard tech secretary job there paying 31 to 40 thousand a year. I still need to apply, but I'm filling out my application tonight and going to fax it as soon as I can. I don't have what it says I need for years of after high school education, but my friend said it's pretty easy to get the tech jobs anyway. Well, that's all that's new in my life for now.
