Old & New
This blog is one-year-old today. Hurray!

To recap on some of the old things that are still moving strong since the beginning of this blog:

Still In School: I will be in college for many years to come. But for all that I complain about I love it. I love learning new things. I love sitting in a class and absorbing information from my professors. Each has their own unique background and worries, and yet each decides to dump their frustrations on young, bright-minded students. There's nowhere in the world you can get the same level of connectivity than in an university classroom...at least that I've experienced in my few years. *Wink*

Still With My Guy: We've been together for almost a year and a half now and things are going swimmingly. No matter how jacked up life can get we can still get together and hash out our frustrations. We make each other laugh. I have two goofy nicknames for him, which I use just to bug the crap out of him. *Smirk* Love is grand and we still got it!

Still Short: Unfortunately, I am still part of the munchkin brigade. This gives me some anxiety still, though the nightmares have gone away (just kidding). No, really. I'm short but I can live it. There are some definite perks to being on the smaller side.

Still Procrastinate: Well, that was to be expected. *snicker*


Now to talk about potential for new things to appear in the blog over the next few months:

NaNoWriMo: Somewhere during the beginning of this month I got the bright (insane) idea to join NaNoWriMo. See, what happen was, I went to the official website and made the mistake of signing up for the challenge. This was stupid on my part. As I am taking five courses this semester that means five loooonnnggg term papers to write. During the month of November. Somehow my brain decided that I can also handle 50,000 words in a month - something I have never accomplished in my life.

More Trips: As my life has become more adult-like, my father has requested my presence more in Bakersfield. That means more bus trips, more interesting stories from Los Angeles. I love my family in B-town, but family issues make these trips complicated. An older brother in jail and a step-mother who loves a dog more than me makes for happy times. Still, I get to see my little brother and sister. Plus, hockey. Nothing like sports to bring the family together.

New Computer: A computer from China will be arriving at my door tomorrow morning (technically today). My father, after many stern moments, decided to get me a new laptop after ditching the idea to give me one of his old ones. I dig old laptops - I dig hand-me-downs. This new laptop is not something I require or even asked for. But I'm happy to receive it as it will allow me to use my computer more often as I currently share on.

Procrastinate Less: Psych!


So there ya go. Some old. Some new. All good times. *Bigsmile*
