Okay, so life has apparently changed a lot since I last wrote in this. I turned 18 in January. I've moved out. I've started college. My boyfriend is in Afghanistan. I feel lost and I feel like I have no motivation.
Moving out has been a struggle. I am still not used to the "pay your own way" deal. It sucks. Sometimes I wish that I was still living at home, but yet I love the freedom. Actually it is just like living at home, except for I have to drive an hour just to see my friends. That kind of sucks. I am glad that I am so close to Oakland though. It's nice out here, but I miss being close to my friends.
The summer class was a total wake up call. I didn't expect it to be like what it is. I'm not saying it's a bad thing because I really love a challenge. It is a little time consuming, but I'm dealing with it. It's almost over anyway and then I get my week vacation... a week vacation sitting at home because I rarely ever work anymore. Money is a need for me right now, yet I don't have the patience to deal with work at this time.
Jeff has been in Afghanistan since March 1st. It's actually working out a lot better than I thought it was going to. I thought that I would still be crying everynight because he was gone and I wouldn't see him for 8 months. It's actually flying by pretty quickly. He comes home for 2 weeks in November, but then goes back over seas until next March. A lot of people wonder how I do it. It's not easy, but we're doing great. He calls me a few times a month. That is nice. It makes it easier to cope with the fact that I haven't seen him in a while.
I should be doing other things. I am so addicted to myspace now. I haven't even looked at LJ for the longest time. I just came on here looking for Quizzes to do. I have class in the morning, so I am signing off.
Later.
