back to the grind

here i am about to return to school for one of the last times. these past years have been fast... maybe ill talk about that later.

i always want to write the most when i have the least time to write.

met a guy on his way to iraq tonight. he seemed fairly simple, but maybe im just simple. he'll be a combat medic over there, which basically means he'll be bombed driving the ambulance around. he said he has 7 dead friends and 32 more live ones over there. those are not encouraging numbers. he seemed to like the idea of revenge, though he admitted fear. talked about the iraq discount he gets and the bcs bowl game. at least his team won tonight. he wore rainbow socks along with an otherwise normal gym outfit. i figured the least i could do was listen to everything he had to say, though perhaps i shouldnt put it like that-- he was pretty interesting. death, or the mere thought of it, simply changes so damned much... i'm so sorry.

ive had some other thoughts lately about friendship, goals, happiness, and other things, but i think ill save them for another day as well.

ive had a really good break.

pretty sure im returning to school with an improved mentality. this break really revitalized me. and other events and people really shook me up enough. i really dont know what was wrong with me, but im feeling so much better now.

take care everyone.
