A New Year...Blah Blah Blah
I'm bored. I have no work and nothing else to do right now so I felt like posting. 2005 for me was a pretty good year overall. Started off cold and ended luke warm. I didn't get to act last year but that's probably for the best. I didn't really like what was there. This year should have better opportunities even if they are in a pseudo booth. Last year was the first year in a really long time that I didn't get extremely sick for a week or longer. I don't look ematiated anymore! That's good. I hope my health stays this way. I'll try and make sure it does. My darkness grew in some ways though I'm surprised it didn't effect my health. My disapproval of how things are in my house and my general dislike of people in general developed. I'm about done with retail. It was okay for a while. There were some points this year that I didn't mind being at work. Probably because I just sit around and play neopets when no customers are around but my tolerance for the stupidity of others, I guess mainly consumers, has ebbed away. My hate for corporate america is still strong. The mall I work at as crappy as it used to be has gone corporate and become worse. I want to ride things out until I go away in September but who knows what can happen in 8 months.
I'm looking forward to my year by myself. It should be a really good experience. School last year was really good. I graduated with a little help from Dr. Littenburg and then my goal to become a teacher was better shaped by the class I didn't need to take this past semester. Professor Groner was awesome and I don't think my time at Farmingdale would have been complete without it. She even said that I'm a great writer and I'll be a great teacher one day. That made my last days there perfect. That and going semi-wild at the faculty and staff party didn't hurt either. Man does Farmingdale know how to party! I might not be completely finished there though. Besides potential acting this year I also might work at the writing center with Professor Brown. She's another one of the teachers that made my time there so rewarding. I'll know by the end of the month because it all depends on if she can get more positions there. She said I have a job if she can. That or doing one last show will be a good way to really end things there though I think I'm happy the way they are. I would like to do one of Russ' side plays but my traveling kind of cut into those show dates.
I did a decent amount of traveling last year but this year is going to be amazing. I'm starting off the year with my typical February trip to DC for Katsucon. Then in late march I'm switching things up by going to Minnesota to see Dan and Matt plus do coning and cosplaying. June, is no different than the past few years by going to Jersey for Anime NEXT, but hopefully I'll be in Cali for a week in July. Then maybe I'll go back to Otakon in August though I'd rather do something different. I'd only do it to spend time with my con friends before I hopefully go to New Paltz. I should get accepted this time around since I sent my transcripts back in after the school was full for spring. Then in October I'm coming back home for Nyocon. I would also like to go on some sort of road trip during the Spring or Summer so lots of travel plans for this year. It should be fun to keep on moving.
The only thing that was missing this year was Lydia. I wanted to see her but I guess you can't pin down a nomad. Even for a second. I'm not expecting anything out of it. I just think that if I had a chance it could be a nice break from being alone. But I'm not too worried about it. I'll deal with it when and if it happens.
So all in all 2005 was a good year. I hope everyone else had a good year and if not there is always this year.
