(no subject)
I just read over my bio on LiveJournal. Wow, is it out of date. I talk about working at BK on there. And going to good ole' OCC. Heh. I need to update it.
So my loan check should be here in a week. Perfect timing to pay off my first round of bills. Electricity shocked me, no pun intended. It's amazing how much money I spent in my first few weeks just trying to keep this little trailer cool. It is a window unit air conditioner, so I suppose it's probably not the most energy efficient, but still. I probably also owe a good portion of it to my computer, which I kept on 24/7 my first few weeks (download speeds for my torrents here are blindingly fast...I average 300 kbps), but I won't be doing that anymore.
I've been watching a lot of TV shows lately. I've gotta say, I'm pretty much addicted to House now...I'm about a third of the way through season 3. I just can't get enough of him. He's so much of an ass, but so gosh darn likable. I've been watching Lost, but I don't really like where season 2 is heading. Dexter is above all my favorite...can't wait for season 2 to start. The third season of Weeds surprised me by actually being good. Why does this have to be the last season of Scrubs? Every time I watch that show I feel like I'm watching old friends.
Ordered a new MP3 player the other day; an 8 GB Creative Zen V Plus. I had to get a high end pair of headphones for my recording tech class (Bose Tri-Ports to be exact...very nice), and so I figured a new MP3 player was appropriate. Plus, it'll come in handy with my DJing. I get to pick about 3 songs every hour, and they can be any song of my choosing, so this new MP3 player will let me bring in some music from my collection, which is growing at an alarming rate (thank you high-speed Internet that's actually high-speed).
Had a pile of homework to do seeing as how it was a three day weekend, but I got it all taken care of. Not really a problem when you don't go out and party. I almost feel like I'm missing out on a vital part of the college experience by not being social at least a little bit. Going out to a bar every now and then wouldn't kill me or my grades, but it would be a problem if it became a habit. And looking at my track record, it's probably in my best interests to keep to myself for now.
Besides, I've got Tina, and more and more I see that she's all I really need. I wish she was living with me. It would be nice to have the company, not to mention to split the bills, but her father wants her to live in a dorm room for now, and I can fully understand him. With young couples, problems aren't just a possibility, they're expected, and we've had our fights, but I feel like we're a good match. I honestly don't think I could ever find another girl like Tina, and I'm really glad we found each other.
I feel like my life is all laid out before me now, just ready for me to take it. I wonder if it'll all be the same in a year. In two years. In five years.
That's the beauty of this journal.
I'll know.
