Nine month-iversary
I decided to update briefly because I haven't in over a year I think.
Well, I mostly just want to vent about my boyfriend. About how disgustingly smitten I am with him. And I hate, HATE, using that word 'smitten'. Whatever, it DOES describe my feelings, so why not.
Anyways, I don't know what he did, maybe he put a spell on me or something. He could be a warlock in disguise. But he's great, and today is - well - refer to the title of this message.
Ugh I hate reading people's journal entries who talk only about their boyfriends or girlfriends. But I am allowed to do it because I'm me.
Ok speaking of egotistical - I ran into my old college newspaper advisor last night at SoHo. He likes males, so Angelo didn't mind me talking to him for a long time. Well I made sure to tell him how much I appreciate all the direction and advice he gave me back then. Writing stuff, you know. He really was instrumental in my wanting to take my writing, reporting further. So then he asked what I was doing and I told him that I'm freelancing for the Herald still and now New Times as well, also have a rent-paying job called Nordstrom. He was impressed, and proceeded to tell me I have the ego for all of this and that's whats pushing me along. I was a little bit taken aback, since I have always thought of myself as my biggest critic in terms of my own talent. It was interesting to hear that. I didn't take it the wrong way, it just made me realize to have faith in myself. The right kind of faith. I really try to stay away from any kind of competitive airs.
Well, hope all is well with everyone who just read this. ;)
