Hello all. This is my much need all inclusive update on my life. I'm sorry if I leave anything out, and if you wanna know details, I might tell you if you ask...hehe.
The biggest change this semester is that I decided to leave my beloved University of Miami for hopefully greener pastures at East Carolina University. I will be changing my major to City and Urban Planning. I'm really excited as well as nervous. There will surely be several lengthy updates as the semester progresses. I pray that those entries will be positive. The reason for my change had to do for the most part with my unhappiness with my major, the math in particular. I've been struggling horribly over the last two semester and it took a lot of advice from my older cousin to make me realize that I needed to make a change for myself, and no one else. Maybe I could've handled telling everyone better but my choice to keep my decision secret until the end of the semester was another choice I made for myself --I did not want to be deterred. In addition to the whole major problem, I was getting way too comfortable in my environment. My apathy was affecting my school work and UM in end just was not the place for me. I will miss my friends and co-workers immensely.
My gradual change since high school has continued. I think I am more myself now and its refreshing to be myself and know that despite my shortcoming and fears there are people that love and accept me. That being said, I'm still pretty secretive and only a few people really know me. One of my resolutions for the year is to continue my 'shell breaking' this year and hopefully I end the year in the company of the same people I started it with.
I am still struggling with the idea of being in a relationship. I've had connections with several people throughout college but nothing is what is seems and unfortunately nothing have worked out for me. My choosiness, in effect, has made me even more choosy as I try to shied myself from the imperfection of the world. My poetry reflects those feelings and every word is from the heart, and it takes a special person to understand that. I'll find that person, maybe I already have. (I miss you PB.)
Here's to a new year. Peace. Love. Happiness. Forever. :)
