Arriving somewhere, but not here
I haven't had a 'real' update in a long time.
Work has been going pretty well. I finished my first 'year', even though my second year doesn't start until the end of september (cause my first couple of months were more like 'training', so they started counting my year starting at the end of september of last year). But for that calendar year, I made more money than I thought I was going to, so thats good.
Besides work I haven't been up to much else, besides learning how to play Golf, which I picked up about a month ago and am making remarkable progress thus far. I just got back from the driving range with my parents, where my dad and I were trying to teach my mom some chipping. It was fun. I also got to work on my drives for a considerable amount of time.
Not only has work been going well from a business and income standpoint, but I also feel pretty good about a bunch of new friends I have made. I'm actually going to see Porcupine Tree again in October, with a bunch of the guys/girls from the office, so that should be fun.
I'm in a really good mood right now, all things considered. I've been reflecting a lot on the last couple of years, and remarking on transition, in general. A great deal has happened, and when I reflect too far back, I feel a great sense of distance, so great that it almost feels unreal, like I am remembering memories from someone else's life altogether. I guess thats what starts to happen as one gets older. In the past year alone I have changed so much, and experienced so many new things that a year ago, I never would have even thought of doing.
It has been interesting, to say the least. I still find myself to be somewhat resistant to some changes, as of late, but look forward with optimism on an overall standpoint.
The future is still very blurry, but for the first time I am actually noticing it clear up, ever so slightly.
