I actually have a spare hour to kill. School really has been kicking my ass lately. The last two weeks were hell, with either an exam or a paper due every day. I could feel myself getting sick. I was wearing myself out. I ended up sleeping most of my weekend away and I feel much better now.
This week is odd because now I don't have anything specific due. I could be reading or doing something else productive, but I think I'm going to take this time and just relax. I'm currently sitting at the table at school, alone.
I'm researching which haunted house to go to this weekend. I enjoy looking forward to the weekend.
Jimmy Eat World's new album comes out tomorrow. I have it already, thanks to Jeremy, and I love it. I'm going to buy it tomorrow at work as well. I did the same thing with the Motion City Soundtrack CD a few weeks ago... but I still have yet to open the actual CD. I've barely listened to it either.
I wish I had more time to just sit and relax and listen to music. I feel like I'm leaving my music scene behind. I really don't care about finding new bands as much as I used to. I don't mind if I miss a couple concerts... I mean, I love concerts, but I hate the people. I hate the 14 year olds that ruin it.
In fact, some of the music that I've been getting into lately has been of a new genre. I find myself listening to more acoustic and melodic music as opposed to thrashing hard rock and pop punk. I still like it, of course, but I'm growing into something different for now.
I guess I feel like I'm moving into a whole new chapter of my life. I'm loosening certain ties with people, and tightening ties with others. I'm becoming more serious. School is less of a pain to go to. I don't find myself having to talk myself into going to class. I enjoy going to work. I take responsibility and leadership roles unto myself. I feel like I'm really apart of a team and it makes a difference if I am there or not.
I've put a giant dent into paying off my debt. I've been spending less money on myself. I can't wait until I get my credit cards paid off and then if I need to shop for myself, I can use my own checking account, instead of charging it and worrying about it later. My last step is to get this other credit card that I was offered with no interest for a year, transferring all my balances to that card, and then only having one credit card bill. It's going to be so awesome.
I think this is the chapter before the chapter where I move out and really do things on my own (with Jeremy. :)
