It's been a while...
I haven't updated this in a long time, and to those of you who actually check this, I apologize. Nothing too exciting has been going on really that I've felt the need to tell about. School is school, I'm behind on my work as usual after vowing to myself that I'd spend less time procrastinating because it just makes things harder. That didn't work out. RA is RA, I'm trying to set up programs and my assitant director isn't communicating with me about if I can do them or not, I am spending more time with my residents this semester which I have to say has been a lot of fun. I've even cut a couple of the guys' hair and have been told I do a good job, maybe I'm going to school for the wrong thing??? Haha... I probably am but I don't think cutting hair is necessarily my forte either. I applied for the summer RA position because I don't feel like being home this summer. Rob and Brian will be in Michigan for the summer, Nathan is my good friend back home that I will miss but I have no idea if he'll even be in Webster this summer or not seeing as how he's not tied down to school or anything as of now. Plus I will only work every other week and can still travel to see friends. Buffalo just seems like a place for me to find what I'm really looking for without the distractions or aggrevations of the things happening back home. It will definitely be an experience not being home for the summer seeing as how I've always gone back and spent those few months with my parents and friends from home. As said before, my friends are dwindling sadly enough. I thought things would be different but that changed back in December with Lex and I not being together any longer, which is one of the main distractions/aggrevations of being home because I'm outside of the circle of friends whenever anything is bad between her and I. Volleyball is going fairly well. We're undefeated in our conference, but one of our top players has Mono which will keep him out up to 4 weeks so hopefully we can hold it together until playoffs. Having a match back in Rochester @ Nazareth College was a lot of fun because a lot of my family was there and I got a lot of playing time and the combination of family and playing time was awesome, plus Nathan showed up who practically is family. I've actually gotten to go to some shows in the last few months out here in Buffalo which have been some of the highlights. Marshall and I have attempted to go to 3 shows and 2 actually ended up happening. The one that was not a success ended up being really cool though actually because the bands played some acoustic songs out in the cold. The other two shows were good also as I got to see This Day & Age back in December, which I might have already written about, then recently I saw Letter Kills which was amazing even though the lead singer was sick, they made the best ouf of it and even had fans up on stage along with their manager and merch guy. Good times. My real struggle this semester has been money though. I want to enjoy my time here but I always seem to have to hold up and make sure I can afford it or if it's worth the money. I hate a money-based economy, the Indians were so much cooler, they had so much less to worry about. And to end this all... I think I have a stalker, which is why I'm uncomfortable.
