I’m so sad that it’s been so long since my last post. December 1? What a shame :(

So far, I feel optimistic about this semester, which is really saying something considering that I felt hesitant about starting the fall semester this past August– and it ended up being a pretty dismal semester.

Self-actualization? To an extent, although there were quite a few things that happened (including one major one that overshadowed all of the rest) that I couldn’t really control. After awhile, I felt tired and self-defeatist and I was really to give up, drop out, move on, transfer, get OUT of Los Angeles, travel abroad…or at least take a semester off.

But I’m here. And I’m ready to try again.

I’m in the middle of finals week. I’d like to say that I’m up to my specs in work, but I honestly think that I’ve been in stickier, more stressful study situations. (AP!) I’m not saying that my classes are especially easy (my Biology grade seems to be deflating with the value of the American dollar), but I feel oddly relaxed. I think that it’s because I know that the end is near, and that this horrible, horrible dream is going to be over.

And that I’ll be able to have my own room back, if only for a little less than a month.

I will miss my freedom (e.g. the ability to come and go at 5 a.m. in the morning if I good and well please) and my kitchen and my privacy, but it’ll be nice to be back and in the middle of what solitude can be garnered in the midst of the usual insanity that is the holiday season. It’s important to look at the glass half full, right?

In other news:

I have yet to start on my green blog. It’ll probably be a product of WordPress, but that’s probably going to have to wait until the break. However, I am terribly excited! Maybe I will be able to get a certain particularly gifted friend of mine to create a site for me (::nudge nudge::) since I have yet to master the intricate dealings behind website development.

Someday, I will learn CSS/C++/Java? and be a MASTER! Someday.

In the meantime, I study.

Bye bye.
