I need to play the field a bit. :)
Monthly Archive for December, 2006
I’m in love with my laptop, but I ordered a new boyfriend online a few days ago. He’ll be here January 3rd.
Lately, some of the ideas I’ve made excuses not to pursue have come up to the surface again, asking for attention. One is to go back to school and get a degree in environmental studies. Another is joining the Peace Corps. A third is to travel for a month in either Hawaii or Alaska. (Drastically different, I know.)
Today I’ve been reading about the first two… and I wonder if getting the degree would help my chances of doing environmental volunteer work. Actually, I know it would. (I struggle to figure out what a degree in Multimedia will get me in the Peace Corps.) :)
I am seriously all over the place lately. It’s kind of exciting!
Thank goodness I’m home.
I hit the wall this morning with my family. It usually only takes about 48 hours. After I left, I hung out downtown with c. It was a really good time despite how anxious I felt beforehand. :)
Tomorrow I’ll tell you all about how I get lost in the most ridiculous places near Philadelphia. Yes, I did live there for 25 years.
Ugh.
I’m sorry. I mean, I’m not really sorry… but… I can’t stand Christmas anymore.
There, I said it.
I don’t really need to explain*, do I? I mean, no wonder we have no boyfriends!
* We’re on AIM, myspace AND gchat. Talking to each other.
I’ve been emailing back and forth with a few people who replied to this post. What a confidence booster… meeting people, that is.
And last night I drove up to PA to be with m. I’m here now, (she’s at the gym), and I’m surrounded by her animals, her home, and her warmth. She made me coffee and left out an english muffin. Thanks mom! (Love her.)
I had a realization last night while we were out drinking that since I’ve left PA, I’ve grown further away from everyone I know, except her. She’s been the one person I was drawn closer to. It’s sad, if I think about all of the friendships that have changed… but I tend to focus on what I gained. ;)
I love the idea of not knowing at all what my life will look like six months from now. If I really wanted to, I could just travel for a month or two before settling over in Portland… I could do whatever I wanted.
It’s just incredible (and overwhelming) to me.
