The time between seasons, I guess when they're in the process of changing, has always been weird for me. That's always where I get colds and start having odd mood swings. The worst of these is when it goes from fall to winter. i don't know if any of you have known me long enough to notice the pattern, but I start to get really fucked up when it gets colder. My dad actually suggested (jokingly) that I move to California or Florida or somewhere it stays nice all the time when I get older. Of course, after he said that we sat there for a minute and realized that maybe one day that could be a legit idea.
Anyways, now we are in between winter and spring (almost summer with the current temps) and I'm back in that weird place. I've been doing okay with it, but I feel a little blah. I can't wait for summer. It's definitely the time of year when I'm happiest. Summer is another weird transition for me, though. For at least the first week or so I feel stressed for no reason. I'm just so used to having homework that I keep having the nagging feeling that I should be doing something and I don't. It's a complete waste of nerves. I only mention that because I'm having a little episode of that now. It's sunday. I have no homework. I don't know what to do with myself.
In other news:
Went with Nik and Pat to milwaukee and chicago for the not without a fight tour. Milwaukee was weird. Chicago was better. I had a moment when I went back to merch to find people after singing my little heart out during Bayside and I felt so happy. I wasn't in the best mood before that but slowly as the night went on I started to feel better and better and Bayside just capped it off. I haven't been to a big show like that in a long time and it just made me remember how good it feels. SYG mentioned a tour this summer with them, FYS, fireworks and bands including the Swellers and Polar Bear Club (!!!!!!!!) on some dates. I pray I'm in town when this show comes through (and that whoever else is on the bill rocks). All those bands have really cool fans, should be a really fun time.
Bamboozle is soon. I'm starting to get anxious about flying again. Fuck my life, there's so much I want to see in the world but I'm fucking scared to go anywhere. I've decided this is my last year staying domestic. Next year I'm going international. I plan to travel lots during my last year I don't have to bow to the tyranny of vacation/sick days. I also figured a year would be a sufficient amount of time to mentally prepare for international flights.
On the bright side, I have a major, I will graduate on time, and hopefully I can use working for KAB as my junior year experiential learning requirement. Feels nice to have some direction. I've realized that I never take the easiest or most direct path to a destination but I eventually get there.
So currently I'm half-dressed, sitting in my bed, contemplating going for a run but probably wont. How very blah.
This is possibly the most boring update ever.
