For the record
I have a confession. I have been cheating on LJ.
There is another blog :(
But this one was my first, and there will always be that.
That is what actually brings me here today. This was my first blog, It is the single largest repository of my terrible writing (on the net). That being said it is also the best record of the ever changing me. I often joke that I am the same as I was in middle school. (I haven't changed an awful lot looks wise.) But the truth is I think I have changed enormously in the past year. High School Derek wouldn't eve recognize me now. I am no longer a class cutting, fun chasing, social butterfly of endless cheer. I seem to be more of a professional, competitive, networking ,student, business-guy. ( Yeah, its a cliche role to play, but I am having fun playing it.) I once was a romantic, filled with love and passions and awe. That is still all there but it seems to have been overshadowed by ambition and focus. In many ways, I have grown more narrow and boring.
Hopefully it is just a phase.
But for posterity's sake, I will document here a confession that I am being lame. As soon as I am done with this degree stuff and my research I will probably lighten up, at least I better, or I will kick my own ass.
I have said my piece, read into it what you will.
respectfully,
~ Derek
