The explosion
that is my life.
Hello friends! I miss you! Especially Jessie and Shannon. *hugs*
Ok, now for the news!
I have OCD, was diagnosed, and now take medication for it. I am at about 5/9 of the maximum dosage, and my compulsions are steadily evaporating.
I am withdrawing from DigiPen to go to Bellevue Community College. I just don't believe in DigiPen for myself anymore. If there is a game design degree offered in the next year, I will consider returning. That is where I think I would flourish. However, 4 more years of schooling, now or in the future, is just not what I think is best for me right now. I still hope to design games though, and computer science could still be an option (although a lot less likely).
I am still trying to get my daily life right, from playing games and watching tv/youtube to sleeping, eating, and bathing. I am relatively successful in that I don't do so much of the latter, but I do tend to have really bad sleep patterns, likely brought on by my OCD medicine.
I still have dreams, but not that many. I had some astounding ones that dealt with sex, prejudice, and violence. It is a shame that I didn't get all the details while they were fresh in my head. But that is life, and I haven't been using my LJ. My life has not been without revelations though. I am still trying to find myself while I am learning to see the world.
This summer I have:
Seen a major league baseball game in person
Went to a summer festival in the international district of Seattle
Went to a club for about an hour (not my kind of scene)
Visited my grandma (I hope to again soon)
Played games for a week solid
Watched TV shows for a week solid
Gone to a bookstore or two in order to find things that interest me
Moved apartments
Well, that is about all I have for now. I might start coming back here on a weekly basis, OK? Sounds good to me! Take care everyone!
