Well, we have almost everything out of the boxes, the tv's are up and running, the internet is alive and well. Things are going according to plan.
I have never felt so out of place in my life. Moving to Galveston for college comes close but I was still 'technically' in Texas; althought Houston is a totally different Texas than the Texas I grew up in. Here, I'm in a totally new state, no family nearby, no friends nearby, and not a whole lot to do except unpack.
I'm hoping that's gonna change once I get to work. I'll make new friends, get a chance to learn the area a bit more and get back into hobbies I let slip when I started getting serious with this school thing and start to try and live life that was put on hold after the storm.
I'm also thinking about stopping school for a while. I've been at it almost nonstop for 12 years between marine sciences and nursing school. Perhaps its time to take a break and live that life I've been wanting for a long time.
Plans fo rthis are continue to unpack and put things in their proper place, try to get in to see my new nurse manager, and perhaps squeeze in a day of paintball.
