So I am just sitting here, too lazy to prepare myself some dinner, and don't feel like working on my term paper for Power Systems. Listen to the usual, Goo Goo Dolls and Guster. But I am happy, or actually relaxed, it's a nice feeling. I am glad I don'y have any classes tomorrow, and I only work for 2 hours from 8-10am. Tuesday is always my most productive day for work. But I want to get a little done tonight. Sadly I don't see that happening. I need to work on balancing social life and school better. I have been saying this a lot this semester, don't know why my motivation is so low. I get everything done, and I have been doing damn good in my electrical engineering courses. But I feel my ethic is worst than normal. But I have been smiling more this year than any other. It is a good semester. Sadly I only have 2 months left, then I am back to working with General Motors again. Gotta pay for school somehow, I am not as lucky as most of you, my parents won't front me any money for school. But if I can afford it, why not pay for it. It doesn't bother me anymore, I am used to it. I am still rather spoiled, I just have to support myself in that sense.
I have been active in trying to meet new people this year, but lately I have slowwed down a little. I haven't gone to any parties in almost a month, so haven't met anyone new. But I am happy with the friends I have now, they are great, always fun to be around. This year has been a lot better than last. I don't plan on degrading myself to that point ever again. My latest goal has been only to better myself. I may have had little actual improvement, but I have found myself having a better outlook on life.
I feel I haven't made this clear to people that I want to date, but I don't want to get into a heavy relationship right now. I will be jumping between Houghton and Brighton every 4 months. I don't want to jump into anything quickly. I am not quite ready for a long distance relationship, so I have been carefull not to push anything after Stephanie and I broke up. I want to date around and learn what I want. Nothing awful serious for a little while I figure out things about myself also. I am happy with how things are going, no more fake smiles like in years past.
