It's been a long time since I've been intimidated by a blank screen or piece of paper. I realized this just now, when I was staring at the screen debating wether or not I was even going to put for the effort to post something. Life is a blur, everything has been happening so fast. To think, I thought I would be BORED without school in a few weeks, but somehow I've managed to stay just as busy.
I've been receiving mass quantities of mail lately, from colleges, banks, and starbucks. Don't ask me why, but I like getting mail :) even for credit cards and stuff I won't be applying for. A couple days ago I got an exciting letter though, it went something like this:
"Dear Mr. Vasquez:
Congratulations! You've been admitted to The University of Texas at Austin. On behalf of our faculty and staff, I invite you to join the Longhorn tradition and to become and active participant in our learning community as we work to transform lives for the benefit of society."
It goes on to detail how much more money I'll be owing them and how happy that makes them feel. Well, its not as bad as that sounds but still close :P
As of late, work is going well. I really do love the people I work with, they're some of the most cool people ever. It really makes me happy to see people who have such diverse backgrounds and personalities get along the way everyone at work does. A couple of people are going to leave soon though, which sucks. Rachel, who is like my sister, will be quitting soon, getting married, and moving to Austin. Along with her, Lindsey will be transferring to a newer store. Me and Lindsey act like we're married, and have convinced some of our customer's by the way we fight with one another. But it's all love.
Aside from that, I've been hanging out. I've made a lot of new friends, and lost a couple old ones. Back at Windfern I knew this girl named Kelly, and to be honest- I couldn't stand her. I saw her the other day at my friend Brian's, and well she's not half as bad as I thought she was. That's all I'll say about that. Brian is a different story. I found out something about him last night which makes me hesitant to even describe him. He's a good guy, he just does the wrong things sometimes I guess. The bulk of my time though, aside from all the aforementioned, has been spent with a guy named Charles. He's a good guy, but he dropped out of school a while ago and just sorta hangs out. This is good for me, because he's never *busy* with anything. Always ready to sit around and chill. As long as his laziness doesn't rub off on me too much (hell I was lazy before I met him) I should be quite well. :)
To be honest, I'm not really home very much anymore. That's probably why this journal has become so weak and infrequent. I miss hanging out with my family some nights, because I go DAYS without seeing my family. My hours at work and at play are just so endless it has afforded me little time to schedule with my mom or whatever. I've been taking it easy lately though, so I'm starting to see them more. That was a weird paragraph, sorry guys =|
I miss other people too. I miss the people I used to hang out with from Cy-fair. I miss Samantha, Jana, Erica, and Sarah. That's really it too. Aside from Christian, Nolan, Ramon and Greg- who I don't see often ever either. I know Samantha, Jana, Erica, and Sarah know I miss them, but I don't think my brothers know. Yeah, I called them my brothers- so what?
That is all !
