Long overdue
Yeah, so I don't think there is a reason for why I haven't posted in a long time. It can't be because I don't have anything to complain about loudly in all of my post-teen angst. I've gone through and seen some pretty ugly shit since my last entry. Nothing worth sharing though, I guess.
So.. I'm 21 now. I'm working full time this summer as an intern at Snohomish County Public Utility District, making a lot of money to do very little. It's a little better than last summer when I worked at Seattle City Light.. as in I feel like my work is more closely related to engineering. It's still a bit abstracted though, which is too bad. I thought I was going to be doing something else.
Anyways, I'm in a pretty serious relationship right now with a girl I love. We've been going together for six and a half months now and I'm pretty excited about it. She's great, accepts all of my goofiness and insecurity and anger and... well. She accepts me for me, which is nice. It's a good change of pace from my last girlfriend..
I'm going to graduate in two quarters. I'll be taking my Engineer in Training certification this October, or maybe April - I haven't decided yet. Then I'll be employable for a real job. Scary? Cool? I don't know yet. I'd like to make some money though, hopefully some place would like to give me some. =)
I'm training for mixed martial arts (MMA) at Ivan Salaverry's MMA in Seattle. I have been taking submission wrestling and some wrestling for about 3 weeks now. It's been really good experience, a bit painful though. I'm having fun though, and learning quite a bit, which is really all I wanted to do anyways. Hopefully I'll be able to compete in the next local wrestling tournament.
So that's me. I'm almost an electrical engineer. I'm training to be a cagefighter. I'm happily significant-othered. I'm ready to be done with school and to start having some real fun. =0
