First journal entry in over a year = craziness
It's not like much has happened since last year...or maybe there has been. I'm away from the boring life of the Illinois Valley yah! I love living in Chicago there is so much to do and I feel like I never have time to do anything anymore. There is always so much stuff I have to do each day that before I know it the day is gone. I think so far the city has really opened my mind up to certain things. The people here even at Columbia are so different than I expected. Sure I've been to Chicago many many times but living here is a whole other experience. Being here makes me realize how sheltered I've been all my life. I'm loving school at Columbia. I feel more at ease now that I kind of know what I want to do with my life, but more scared because I feel like everyone is a step ahead of me. I have to admit though school has me freaked out about my future. My Marketing Strategies class always keeps me thinking about it. I'm scared to death about getting a job after school. I can't wait, but I'm nervous as hell now. What if nothing goes as planned and I can't get a job and I'm stuck doing something that I hate? Eh...
Today I exchanged numbers with a girl in my class so we can study for our Midterm. One of the girls who is also in my class was in the elevator. She was saying how she had the same area code and that she's from Spring Valley Weird huh? The weirdest part is her roomate is someone who I went to school with since jr. high. I always find moments like that very interesting.
This weekend I'm going to see Beck...that is if my ticket ever comes. I'm excited to go I always like to go to different concerts and plus it will be nice to go out and do something fun.
