I graduated yesterday. Which is to say, they held a comencement ceremony that I could have walked in, and I opted to move out of millenium. Hu-freakin-zah.
Needless to say, I don't really care, since I don't really know anyone other than maybe five people who were graduating at that time? MAYBE? I just want the fifty bucks I spent on cap and gown back. :-p
I moved into a great apartment (while attempting to finish school) with Will. The place is out in Catonsville, basically a block and a half off of 695, which puts me about 20 minutes from work (with no trafic). No AC, which may or may not be a problem, but we've got windows going on both sides of the apartment, so if push comes to shove, we can turn the place into a wind tunnel.
The apartment itslef is really nice, a decent sized "master bedroom" which is the livingroom, and a relatively small bedroom, with two closets. We've got a kitchen that my dad was nice enough to provide a folding table for, and a porch down the stairs that we've put a rather nice cement bench onto. That and I planted a tomato plant, basil and rosemary. All of which will be nice if they don't die from my lack of plant growing skills...
I now have a car too. My dad's girlfriends old car, which doesn't have a current inspection, and the "check engine" light is on, but from what I've been told, there is actually nothing wrong with the car. o.O go figure, Will's dad said he'd take a look at it either this weekend or next. Either way, I have a CAR. *does a dance* and I actually realized from driving it the past few days, I'm not that bad of a driver. Though I really need someone to give me a refresher course in parallel parking...
Other than that, nothing all that much goin' on. If you're in the Balmer area feel free to swing by, I've been busy as hell lately, but hopefully within the next few weeks things should, I stress should, ease up a bit.
Honestly I just want a day when I can just sit on the porch by myself and read a good book, or draw or something, and not have to be somewhere.... oh well.
