Haven't posted in here for a while. May as well clear my head.
Graduated UCF last year. It was fun, although there were some classes that I hated. Felt a bit out of place at times since I was older than most of the students there (although I can still pass for 25). However after I got my BA degree, I've been stagnant. I have a lot of money I saved from when I was last employed, but it's running out. I need to get out more. There have been times when I've felt uninspired to get out of bed and fill out a bunch of applications that seem to go unnoticed. The job market really sucks when my backup plan of a temp agency just laid off a bunch of workers. Also when you go to a job fair and you see 70 people looking for the same job and realizing that there are many more from earlier and later in the day.
I want to be more sociable, but have no idea where to go when I do drive around. One thing I've been a bit frustrated with is when I try to contact some old friends and I only get 1 or 2 answers back out of the 10 to 12 I contact (strange parallel to the job search?). It feels like at times I lose contact with more people I thought I trusted. I wonder how many I really knew, or did I just know them from the places I used to hang out. On the flip side, there are some people that I knew really well and trust more than anything. Once in a while I go to a party or a concert, but it seems more often that it's over too soon.
When Jenn dropped in to visit Florida a few weeks back, we had an interesting conversation on how there is a huge next step in life than where we've been accustomed to living. I'm wondering how to get to that next step.
I've been going through some old tapes of some independent wrestling shows in the northeast I used to go to when I lived in Connecticut. I remember that they are from around 2000-2003 and I'm amazed how much time passes for things that felt like they were yesterday. I decided to contact some of the people I used to know from back then, just to drop a line and say hi, see how they were doing. Even though there were many times I look back, and although there are times I know I have come off as a huge mark, I've been missing those days and those people a lot.
Just needed to ramble. Looking for feedback to see how to get my head cleared.
