Well, I cannot believe that the summer has come and gone. So much for enjoying the perks of "my last summer." Talk about taking a shot of reality this summer -- having 3 jobs at one time, turning 21, and having my last actual summer vacation (unless, I become a teacher...HA!). Things have taken a very different course in my life -- suddenly, I'm just not concerned with where it's going to go. I am floating in the breeze where life intends to take me -- meeting new people every day and keeping better relations with those who I have known for ions. The newest person that I have met, Mark, has had quite an impact on me already, considering I have not even known him for a month thus far, yet he's mine. I hope to keep him for a long time, but we'll see what life has to say about that...
In the meantime, I think I'm just going to keep with the flow, stick out this year, and then decide where my life is supposed to go, career-wise. Beings this is my last semester, I'm going to live it up a little, and do the things that I didn't get to do this summer -- visit NYC, go to visit John in Clemson, Evan in Philly, and hopefully running into Krysta while I'm up there as well, and just having fun. Gotta finish up that Senior thesis of mine, and live up to my deal with Mark. Maybe, for now, the winds of life are the winds of change, and are finally blowing hard enough to make an impression and change me.
"Now it seems I'm fading
All my dreams are not worth saving
I've done my share of waiting
And I've still got nowhere else to go
So I wait for you to
Take me all the way
Push me under
Pull me further
Take me all the way"
