| Finally, it's time for a little writing.
Recently, I moved to center city with my wonderful girlfriend. It's a large studio, not too expensive and pretty classy, I think. It's nice and I'm looking forward to spending more time there once we finish getting settled.
Speaking of finances, Temple is experiencing a budget crisis. Employees will not enjoy raises this year and students are being fired. My hours have been cut dramatically, but I guess I should be thankful I even have this job at all. Oh well, time to start looking for another one. Perhaps I'll ask around at the local coffee shops.
Today was the first day of a new semester and I'm feeling optimistic about it. I was so worn out by the time I got home, I couldn't help but take a nap. Yes, I took a nap around 6 this evening and now I'm awake. Anyway, this is what my courseload looks like: Macroeconomics, Intro to Accounting, Spanish 1002, Statistics 2103. Then I'm scheduled to work 10 hours/ week on campus. So yeah, I'm excited about this. And I just switched my Spanish section so that I can have the same professor I had for Spanish 1001 last semester. Now maybe I'll have a chance to develop some kind of relationship with him and he'll have to write me a recommendation. Yes!
I love my apartment! I can't wait to have people over. Party Planning!!!
EDIT:: I changed my schedule to add a women's studies course. Just thought I'd let everyone know.

| As the end of the semester approaches, I grow more and more restless and look forward to the start of something new. For me, that something new just isn't exciting enough. To be honest, after finals are over, I'll just end up working more hours for the same people, in the same building, on the same campus, in the same city ... you catch my drift. I like to stay busy and focussed, but the truth is, I could really use a vacation right about now. I want to take a flight to someplace beautiful and spend my days doing something different, anything different. However, I'm a shopaholic. So I admit it. I love spending money. And when there's rent to pay and gifts to buy, I just can't do the things I wish could. I want to go far away from Philadelphia and take my wonderful girlfriend with me. I want to take her away, somewhere where it can just be me and her and the glorious ocean. Perhaps we could take a cruise someplace romantic. *sigh* I want to go places and do things. I want to give her everything in the world. And someday, I will.

So I have to say, things have been looking up.
I feel calm and relaxed. Even better, I am often calm when I'm not relaxed, and other times I'm relaxed when I'm not calm. Now that takes talent. Hahaha.
Anyway, I feel pretty good. I feel like I have some sort of future to look forward to. Of course, there are quite a few years between now and then that need to be filled, but it looks like there may be a happy ending for me after all. It hasn't been easy, but it has certainly gotten easier. I have some faith in this. More than some. I have a lot of faith in this. Things are different now and my feelings have changed for the better. Yes, things are certainly different, but most definitely better.

I'm done blogging in search of some kind of enlightenment or something. I've decided to be more literal and straightforward, as forward as I can be to the public.
Life = pretty damn good. Painless classes: not too much work. Moderate social activity: fair amount of going out, partying and getting fucked up just because. Stunning girlfriend: she loves me as much as I love her and we would do anything for each other. Of course there is an added bonus for her coming out, hopefully along with news of her university housing. Phillies games were fun, Rock Band concert November 1st. Upcoming presidential debates and election.
I am excited!
I get it now. Focus on the present. Occasionally plan for the future, but the majority of the time I should live in/ for today. The future freaks me out. I worry and worry and worry. Then I feel overwhelmed and freak out, when in reality, there's no real reason to do so (today). Everything is ok .. right now. And I like to keep things that way.
ps. i cut my hair- like all of it. and my mom cried.
