I am making a lot of changes this quarter. I'm promising myself that I will spend more time getting to know new friends or reconnecting with old friends. I've become far too immersed in my current little 'family'- it might feel fun and natural, but in the long run, it will leave me feeling empty.
I'm taking a class at the IMA and going to walk everywhere for a couple weeks. I know it'll take a while to feel the change, but if I'm going to run and be active like I was last summer, its best to start now instead of right after finals week.
Last night I went to see Ratatat at Neumo's. It was the first 21+ show I've been to by myself. It was strange drinking by myself and being on the balcony. I did dance, though. They were fucking AMAZING live, and it was a sold out show and the crowd loved them. I wasn't in a great mood when I left, as one of my 'best friends' apparently only cares about spending time with (or contacting!) females when he's having sex with them. I am so bitter. But I went and danced and had fun anyway. Maybe it will work out. Or maybe I need to accept that not everyone stays as attached to me as I do to them.
Eric being in Portland staying with Rita and her family for three days has made me realize a couple of things. A) I never realized how nice it is to get some recreational time on my own, and B) The relationship got too serious too fast and I'm going to change that.
Tonight is Jord's 21 run...I'm excited. I love Jordan. I know she's been very down lately...I want us to all cheer her up.
