I've been strangely happy lately. I feel like the past two months of my life where just indescribably horrible, and my weekend in Provincetown was the most cathartic thing I could have done. I came back from there, and everything just seemed to...get brighter. My friends are amazing, I've learned how to say no, I have a completely different outlook on work (which I'm actually kind of enjoying, and which I attribute to my change in focus from auditing to actual legal work), I'm playing softball with a great group of people, the weather is gorgeous...And I met an absolutely amazing, beautiful girl. Who I think just may be as into me as I am into her. Ironically, I met her the night I came back from Provincetown. I completely have Nogga to thank for that one, too. We were supposed to go to Cherry Tree, but ended up at Gingers because he wanted to shoot pool. So awesome call on that one, kid.
I think I'm happy. I think I'm hopeful. I think I could see myself falling for this girl. I think...I think I may be content with my life. I'm planning on going back to school, and will be applying to some top 10 criminology programs throughout the country for the fall of 2010 (MSU and Northeastern top the list, with John Jay as a fall back).
I'm feeling comfortable in my body. I'm not sure why, and I'm not exactly sure when it happened, but it definitely has. I'm feeling comfortable in myself, in my identity (or lack thereof). I'm finding a safe haven in treading through ambiguously-gendered waters and not necessarily binding myself to either one.
I'm meeting with someone tonight to talk about moving into her apartment for the summer, and it would be amazing if it worked out.
All in all, things are surprisingly good, and I can't only see them getting better.
