It seems to be a trend among the people I know that our old livejournals (or xangas or whatever) have pretty much gone the way of our myspaces. These social networking sites were once integral to our social (and personal) lives, much like facebook is now, but we grew out of them. I still use my livejournal, mostly the friends page, but it's not really a journal anymore. I've read my new years entry a few times over the past couple of months and it is like a time capsule, as all of these entries are. If anything, this journal reminds me of how much changes between entries.
So this is the part where I talk about what's changed. Not much has, but what has is so important.
The last entry was me the day before new years eve, getting ready to spend it with friends. It was great! Brad and I had our first date- we went out to dinner, went to a friend's house party -- a friend that I spent the night with (but no sexy times) a month or so before and who looked rather surprised to see me with a date -- and then to some other crazy party, and then went back to his house to watch Gummo and get to know each other better. Brad later (i.e., like a month ago) confessed that watching Gummo was a test-- if I liked it, I was a keeper. I guess I'm a keeper! We've been together since then. He's great! I don't want to get too detailed because what if we break up sometime in the future (I hope not!) and then I reread this and it makes me all sad, but I can't imagine a better fit.
About 6 weeks after new years I left for Spain! Ah, Spain. There's not much to say, except that coming back home felt like waking up from a 5 month long dream. There were good parts (getting to hang out at the Alhambra whenever I wanted) and terrible parts (my landlord stealing my and my father's laptops). But there was ample time for personal growth, so that was good!
Here is my study abroad tumblr. Check it.
But now I am home, back in school, back to going to the gym (ugh I ate too much nutella in Spain oh noez), and fall is on its merry way. I'm hoping that the warm weather sticks around long enough to help my garden grow (yes I have a garden now!), but if not I guess I'll just drink some whiskey and eat some soup to make myself feel better.
That's about all I can think of right now, except that also I got another tattoo and it's supah cute:
Okay! That's all I have to say. toodles!
