a continuation

It's still 9 days before the concert, but i'm going to write in anyway.
Well, it's been a good couple of weeks at Lyco. I've been keeping myself busy by joining a couple of clubs, and i've decided to make myself feel important by buying a nice planner from the school store.
It's raining outside, but it doesn't feel like a bad day. I got my OPI nail polish, so it's all good. I can't wait to transfer, I've been in and out of Texas for so long, I need a small break from it. Well, at least i'm trained to be away from home, or a base, for long periods of time. I think I can handle it as an International Studies major now. :)

9 days...!

ah! I totally fail at keeping up with the promise to write in here everyday before the MSI concert...oops! anyway, the countdown is in the single digits!
ugh. i'm gross and need to shower. 9 days! Song of the day is "On it"!

Middle of Week Three!

It's the middle of week three, I have a german exam I need to study for, so this will be a quick post.

So my views of Lycoming have changed slightly, it's not as bad as it seems, but i've also noticed the city where i'm in...shitty as hell. I'd rather be in a big city and do whatever the heck I want...where the crime is almost proportional to the population of people. Here, the crime is blown out proportion according to the population, meaning that there's a lot of crime and not too many people. Honestly? Really. I have a good roommate this year, she doesn't like the idea that i'm leaving at semester. But it's official now. The school knows i'm not coming back next semester. I don't mind, i still look forward to transferring to UNT. hopefully when I go back to Houston I can establish a wider homebase for chillin and what not.
Alright, back to the books. 11 Days until the Mindless Self Indulgence concert in Rochester, NY! We could've done closer, but some things got in the way.

this feels like a good night for blogging....

Well, less than two weeks left at this job, and i'll be heading back home. I have less than two weeks there and then i'll be headed for Lyco. How crazy is that?
I've been thinking a lot about what i'm going to do for next year, and so far I don't feel any regrets or any reason to change my plans. For those of you who don't know what i'm doing, here's my plan: next semester i'll be returning to Lycoming, but Spring semester i'll be heading back to Houston and i'll be going to community college there. I want to finish off my basic credits so I can get those out of the way. Then, for fall semester, i'll be applying to the University of North Texas. Thanks to talking to an online friend (since that's really the only way we communicate), North Texas offers what I want, and it's also close to home. By then I should know how to drive, so I should be able to go home whenever I want. I was thinking of going back to Lycoming, but I don't think that's an option that makes sense. Everytime I think of transferring to UNT, it makes me happy inside. I found out later on last semester that I wasn't too happy at Lycoming, So it'd be better to transfer. Not to mention the loans that i'm taking out.
Summer has been good and bad. I've learned many things that i hadn't seen in myself before, i've gained a few friends, and i've strengthened bonds with old friends. It feels good to be at the home away from home. I've gained a little bit of liberty as a staff as opposed to being a student, but it still has its stresses. I like kayaking, canoeing, camping, talking, bitching about what we hate, and making s'mores...although for now i'm sick of them.
Will next summer be the same? How will next year be?
it stresses me out a bit to think about it, but it makes me feel so accomplished to know i'd been in many places in just a year. Only time will tell, and all will be revealed in time.

no title!

i've been so busy. the kids are crazy, lessons have been learned. i'm looking at the world through a different set of goggles now.

so tired

Tired.
that is all.

Milwaukee

it's 2:11 and it's raining in Milwaukee. I'm waiting for my bus to Wausau where a dear friend of mine will pick me up. Everything has gone smoothly despite the fact that my teeth hurt so much I can barely eat anything that requires biting. I got my wire put in a few days ago, and so the transformation now begins.

this whole trip up here seems so surreal to me. It doesn't feel like i've left Houston. I guess looking at the green woods again will hit me that I have indeed gone away from the city. well, I have been jumping from city to city, so maybe that's why it doesn't feel like i've traveled much. I remember when time when I went up to conserve and i had a little bit of a culture shock, the trees were so green, there was so much open air and space; but here's the catch: this happened senior year. After 4 years, you'd think i was used to the woods, but it didn't seem that way. the mind works in weird ways.

well, i'm off to facebook before i am wireless again for 5 hours.
