(no subject)
I don't really have anything important to say today. Unlike most times, I didn't really come into this post with a purpose. I didn't have something on my mind that I wanted to share. I didn't have some huge realization about my life or about life in general.
I am just bored. And I like to read other people's posts. So, I figured I would try to contribute something.
Aside from huge worries about money, some huge (uncharacteristic) fights with my family, and some minor stress about grad school applications, life is pretty good right now.
I enjoy my roommate quite a bit. It's actually been my most successful roommate experience ever, I think. I let Liz down. Her sister and I didn't get along. Adam and I certainly didn't get along. But, Izak and I have a pretty good rapport. We work together in a nice symbiotic relationship, in some weird way.
Everyday, though, I can't help but think that we are an unlikely couple. We don't seem compatible; yet, we work so well together. It's different than anything I've ever experienced.
Grad school is creeping up on me. I worry that I don't have the motivation to write my essays. Which, I know is really lazy of me. But, having gone nearly a complete year since finishing my thesis, I haven't really been in the habit of doing much work or meeting deadlines outside of work itself. I have taken the first steps on all my applications and have confirmed all but one of my letters of recommendation, so I guess I'm still on track. I'd like to have my essays complete in the next week or two, though... and I still haven't even read the prompts. I'm excited, though certainly nervous, about this next stage in my life, though. I am anxious to see what my options are--where I might be able to go. While it would be nice to stay in Nashville where I have established a community, it would also be exciting to travel to a new city and have some new experiences in places that I would have chosen on my own.
Well, I feel like I've said what I wanted to say... which, of course, was nothing in particular. But, I got it out of my system.
Much love.
