I'm pretty much posting just because it's become a bit of daily ritual. Which is pretty funny when I think about the other entries on this journal where I said I probably wouldn't post much, and that I didn't like to.
Life is an ironic little bitch.
Anyway, I thought I might just give everybody an update on my life.
What's the news? Oh, it's still the same, nothing big happened. Nyah nyah nyah.
Actually, no, that's not entirely true. I'm pretty sure that (for the time being) I have settled on a major. Possibly a career. Or in other words, decided what I'm going to do whilst writing.
I am going to go into Webdesign.
Which is actually a little scary because it throws my (tenative) post-High School plans into whack. When I was settling on Journalism as a major, I had it set what college I'd be going to. No names, but they had a very good program and were near both my mom and dad's houses and my friends.
Tell the truth, I was picking Journalism just to make mom happy. It drives her nuts that I want to be a writer and dedicate myself to something which will not make me a lot of money. She thought Journalism would be a better, safer choice for me. And with this I might be doing the same thing, but...I really like it. I'm good at it, and hopefully, I can make enough money doing it to keep my mom from fretting.
Which means that I signed up in Journalism for no reason. XD Oh well, it'll still be fun. Seeing your name in print is always fantastic.
But back to the throwing my life into turmoil thing.
I have to do research and see if there's any decent schools in my area. Not just because of the cost, though that's part of it. See, thing is, I'm comfortable here. Sure, I'd love to go around the world and see new sights, but where I am? It's my home. It always has been. I really can't imagine myself
living somewhere else. I've always thought that, no matter what happens to me, this would pretty much be my home. I would come back here.
Not to say some time out of state wouldn't do me some good, but...wow. I really haven't given the idea that I might have to move far away any thought -- and if I get accepted by a really good, out-of-state college, I might go. (Not saying I
will but it's a possibility.) I don't know yet, though, it's a lot to think about.
Romance-wise, I'm still batting a big fat zero. Strange side-effect of not leaving the house. Seriously, I need to get out some more. But I did realize something important! I need to widen my fishing pond, so to speak. In the past, if the guy wasn't a friend of mine, I usually pretty much ruled him out as a potential boyfriend. This is a big fat mistake. There's plenty of cute interesting nice guys out there I don't know yet, I should give them a chance.
Yay, I learned something. =P
And now that I'm done with all this emotional searching/freaking-out stuff...
BOOT TO THE HEAD! (Thank you,
