If you were to ask me why I am updating my LiveJournal, the answer would sound very emo. "Because I don't have anyone to talk to." Haha, I told you. But there's an element of truth to it. I am alone at work and I really want to write for some reason. Kellen is probably the only one who is going to read it.
So the end of an era came last week. Stephanie and I broke up. Three and a half years. That is a very long time. I don't look at it as wasted time at all. We had a lot of fun. I'm not going to really go into detail about the break up or how I feel about it. I am writing this more so when I look back on it in the future, I'll be able to put the timeline together. Suffice it to say, Stephanie and I broke up mutually, it was far from easy, but I think it is going to be for the best.
Work. I am at work right now. My job is super easy, but I'm finding out that it's not fulfilling at all. It is 1,000 times better than my last job (as a walking target) but I feel like I'm just kind of wasting time. I still want to be a police officer, but I'm unsure how to proceed. I have been rejected several times. Should I just keep trying, risking rejections again? At what point will they look at an application and say "Oh he's been turned down too much, there must be something wrong with him." Or do I stay out of the game for a while, and make myself a more attractive candidate? (Work out like a machine, learn spanish, maybe volunteer at the police dept)
I guess I've been leaning towards option 2, because I've been re-accepted to ASU as a spanish major. But the spanish classes in the fall don't exactly coincide with my schedule. And still, how long would it take to get to the point where I could pass a fluency test? Life is full of question marks.
Something's gotta happen though. I don't like my schedule, and something tells me they want to make it worse. We'll see. If it gets worse, it's not going to be worth the modest $13.89 I make per hour.
