Hmmm fall....
No matter how I'm feeling, Great Big Sea always makes me feel better.
I busted out my boots today and that to me signifies the start of fall. The start of perfect weather for cuddling, blowing off work, playing in leaves, and football. I'm really excited, because for the first time ever, I might actually have time to enjoy it.
Ever since I got back to college, I've been pressured to do a lot of things. Work harder, take more credits, party more, basically to keep pushing myself at an ungodly speed. I dont want to move that fast through my life anymore. I've missed so many things by always pushing to be the best or pushing myself harder than I needed to. I love UVA because it fosters a sense of academia, but it also creates an environment of competition and cutthroatness that I dont want to be a part of anymore. I've since downsized in credits (thank god for AP ) and enjoying what many call my "slacker" schedule. If this is what being a slacker feels like, then I think I want more of it.
On another note, I'm not that broken. I'm still decently optimistic, and every once in awhile I can get the courage to still put myself out there. I havent completely bounced back from summer, but it's good to know that I'm not completely out of the game.
I'm happy. Not content for right now happy, but satisfied with my life happy. And I hope all my loves are happy too.
