we'll make it anywhere.. away from here

Aug 16, 2005 07:12

wow, it's getting so close now. in just two days, i'll finally be out of here and in atlanta to start over at tech. you know, and it might be an exageration to say this, but it doesn't even feel like i'm starting over. it feels more like i'm starting for the first time. everything up until now has just been preparation, but this - this is where it all begins. now that i'm leaving, i can finally start my life.

most of my summer has been pretty uneventful, but the last couple of weeks have had more excitement than i've seen in quite a while. for once i had a descent excuse for my inactivity when i lost the internet for two weeks. it started out with my mom accidently throwing away the bill because she didn't know we had switched providers, but it continued due to some family problems. i won't get into it, but let's just say we're down to about five pieces of glassware..

with family issues resolved (or at the very least, better), i finally had a chance to turn my attention to school related things. lately, my sister and i have been going out a lot to try to find all the things i'll need for college. i thought i was late for starting two weeks before leaving, but while shopping, i've seen more people from school than ever. we've gotten pretty much all the things i need at this point, but there's still a couple big things i have to buy - namely, a new computer and my books. my sister bought me a cool tech mouse pad the other day, but i guess the rest of it has yet to come.

with school so close now, i'm more excited than ever to get there. a few weeks ago, details of my soon to be life were revealed when i received my schedule and room assignment. i have no problems with the former, but i was a little dissapointing with my living arrangement. it ends up i won't be living with michael this year, but will instead be rooming with some guy named myles from boca raton (someone from my friend's list is from there..). i have yet to contact him, but hopefully, he won't be too bad. really, my biggest fear is just that he might be a homophobe. i already knew michael was ok with it, but now that i'm not going to be rooming with him, it's kind thrown me for a loop. hopefully it'll be ok though.

so, i guess this will be the last entry i write before heading off to tech. i'll try to write another as soon as i get internet there, but i'm sort of wondering how much i'll write after that. i only wrote about five entries for my entire senior year, and i wasn't even all that busy. in college, i'll probably have even less time than before! i really hope i don't get too lazy about writing though.. this is something i think i'll really want to remember.
