Well, it looks like you all can expect bi-monthly update from me, since I appear to have a lot of time to do an update every other Saturday while on dispatch.
So, the topic of this week?
My, how things change
Actually, that's a pretty lame title, cuz I seem to write nearly all of my posts about my ever-changing life. Last week, you got a general gist of how it's changed over the past four years, this week, I'm going to go a little into how it's going right now.
Well, to be honest, I'm going to side with one of my close buddies right now who said it recently and say that it's stressful and I miss the old days. Not a lot; I can live here perfectly fine, but a lot of stress would be gone if it were four months ago. But alas, that can't happen.
Actually, you know, my life isn't that bad. I have an amazing girlfriend (but doesn't everyone?), a decent college, and good(ish) grades and a job. It's going - hard, albeit - smoothly.
So as The Black Keys play in the background and I glance over at the security cameras around campus on the monitor to the left of the one this blog is on, the thing most on my mind is my girlfriend. I didn't really think it was feasible for me to be in a relationship, and and to be honest, for the first month I was pretty shy and reserved about it. But only recently have I realized how awesome having one can be. Sure, being single was and still is lots of fun, but having someone there for you - especially when you live six hours from home.
Alright, sappy moment over. I don't love her, nor should I at this point. But I do care about her a lot. The relationship could blossom into something serious, or it could just fizzle down and we could end up friends. Either is fine by me. But this whole relationship aspect has really put a twist on my college experience. Better, arguably, more challenging, yes! But as the weeks tick down to break, we have to keep our heads on straight and keep heading for the ultimate destination together (well, for a college student), home.
More to come.
