Its been awhile

Well, its been a long time since I last actually wrote something in my live journal. I just downloaded a program that acts as email for me to update my livejournal without logging in. Ya, I'm lazy like that. Well, I'm currently attending my local community college and studying Administration of Justice. I'm working as a cashier at my local grocery store. I'm still with my wonderful girlfriend. I got a car, Mazda Protege 93'. Lets see...whats on my mind...why do I even want to write in this thing...Who am I talking to? Myself? Or the person reading it. I already know what I'm typing so, I guess I'm writing in this to vent or just write because I'm bored. I've been pretty much neglecting this because I lost interest in it. Not that I didn't have anything interesting to type, but it just seemed like a waste of time. Well, I guess I'll just type whatever comes to mind.
Well, it looks like I may be going over to Iraq or someplace like that. I'm sure I'll have fun over there killing people and playing Diablo II. I will really miss all of my friends and family. I'll have to put off school for awhile and continue it once I return (if I still feel like it). Or I'll just go straight into being a police officer.
Ya, I want to become a police officer. I've been wanting to do this for quite some time now. I think the reason why is because it will clearly define my role in the community and I'll be helping people out all the time. Sure some people thinking arresting people isn't helping, but its helping the people that caused those to get arrested.
School is going well, I realize that going to class is more important then actually studying. Atleast now I can actually get that realization. Yeah, its taken me awhile to get down this whole 'class' thing and 'grades'. Also this foreign term called 'credits'. But this semester is looking good as long as I keep going to class and trying my hardest. I think the reason why I'm doing so well is because I'm actually studying something that I enjoy, law enforcement and corrections. Before I was just taking classes that were required and I didn't have a set goal in mind, like I had the major 'business' or whatever, but I didn't really know what I wanted. Therefore it seemed pointless to put all of the work into classes if I didn't see any real gain out of it. Obviously I was wrong. There was gain out of it, but not neccessarily what I was thinking of.
I'm concerned over my friend Ryan. I hope he is doing okay, but he never really tells me whats going on inside of his head. Sure he says 'ya, I'm fine' or he tells me after the fact that he was upset or whatever. But I just rather know whats going on now, while its relevant so we can do something about it. I know that I'm not any better when it comes to sharing emotions, I guess its just being a guy, so its okay. I know that this will be something of improving myself by sharing how I feel when its appropriate compared to not appropriate. Maybe hes just better at it then I am? Maybe he doesn't need to tell me what hes feeling and its okay to tell me later, who knows?
I pretty much go up every weekend to KU to visit my girlfriend and friends. I have a good time drinking beer and all. But not last weekend. One of my friends and his brother was fighting at a party and his brother started to fight. They moved the fight to some lady's lawn and she called the cops. They got arrested, so obviously that sucked. He hasn't been back to school yet, from what I've heard, but I hope hes doing okay.
I haven't seen any movies lately, but I did get Sealab 2021 Season 1 on DVD, which is badass. Actually my gf bought it for me because I paid for gas and dinner or something to that nature. Basically I buy something for her or us and she does the same. The last movie I watched was Kill Bill 2, which I enjoyed.
I just wish that I could hang out with more of my friends. I've told so many people that I'd hang out with them, sure some of them are in different states like, Iowa and Minnesota, but the other ones are in Kansas at KU which I go there a lot, but I neglect stopping by because I'm busy chilling with the girl. I feel really bad because I tell all of these people I'd hang out with them, but I know that I won't have enough time to get this accomplished. Either I'm working, schooling, at KU, or sleeping. So I'm letting everyone down in the process of keeping all of these things in balance. Not to mention my online friends that I've stopped talking to. Basically I've been isolated myself with school and work. I'm sorry folks, but I really don't know what to do.
I haven't eaten in 2 days because I'm trying out this new medication that takes away my appettite so I just completely forget about food. I mean, I've had a few moutain dews and a hershey's bar, also a couple pack of smokes. I just ate a sandwich, mmm that was good. Its going well with studying and everything, but it keeps me up til 4am, so I think I need to lower the dosage somewhat. Atleast now I have a car so I have a lot more freedom with going to places, so theres more of an opportunity then before for me to visit friends. Now with YourFriendsAWhore, all I need to do is call you when I'm at KU and we can hang out for a bit, but when I'm there visiting my gf theres always something her and I need to do that me and her barely have enough time for ourselves to think. But I will definately give you a call next time I'm there, even if its for 5 minutes.
Well, I really don't have much to complain about. I'm happy and healthy. Things could be a lot worse so I should be thankful for what I've got. Oh, also I've got my friends on LJ! ^_^; . Well I think this is the time where I wrap things up. So I might as well end it with a quote.
Sealab 2021
Dr. Quinn:"Hey Stormy, what time is it?"
Stormy:"Dodgeball time, bitch"
Stormy throws a dodgeball at Dr. Quinn's head.
