there is a mysterious chasm between old and new
well i havent written in awhile, so i guess im due.
i now realize why in movies people always run away from some suburb and go to new york or something. not that marietta is a bad place, but its just so confined and beige. and seriously, does anyone else get annoyed that you cant even go to the grocery store without seeing about 12 people you hoped you would never see again? and you are invariably wearing sweatpants and no makeup without having showered for at least 24 hours. life has such a sense of humor.
in that same vein, i beleive that if you are bored, that probably means that you are boring. now i have come to accept the fact that i am boring, so all you exciting people out there need to tell me your secrets. just to clarify, being exciting does not mean being "wild" or even outrageous. i feel as though i have been there and done that, and now i am attempting to forge a life that is legitimietly interesting. i suppose everyone is, at least the type of people that sit around reading livejournal. let me clarify that this type of person includes myself.
this summer has mostly consisted of working at the lovely olive garden and attending the even more lovely kennesaw state university. dont get me started on either of these institutions. lets just say they both attract those who are in my opinion unsavory characters and people with below average IQ. people like george bush sans the upper class rearing. let me edit this by saying that kennesaw im sure contains some very nice and intelligent people, and i have even had the pleasure of knowing some of these people, but it just seems they lay low on campus in an attempt to escape from the others.
the beacon of hope in all this is that school will soon be starting again, and my trusty sidekick is always there to keep me sane. shout outs to the following people: mego and katherine: you are always there to answer my embarassingly infrequent phonecalls and support my attempts at social interaction, and that means a lot more than you realize. fellow OG workers and kennesaw students: thank you for entertaining me on a daily basis, and more so for motivating me to continue on at emory and to apply for law school. ryan: there really isnt much i can say, other than you are a saint for even still talking to me, let alone still being my boy-bestfriend. you literally complete me, and without you i would be a lonely unfeeling shell of a girl-woman.
okay enough narcicissm for today.
