The course of events that comprise my life currently are becoming increasingly harder to talk about/ write about / deal with.

I am not trying to lose touch, disconnect with ones I once considered close to my heart, or be bitter towards that which I cannot change. I am trying to avoid all of this while saving my ass in borderline failing a class or ( Read more... )

I don't know what it is, but as of late, I am just aching to make my apartment more "me". I keep getting all these ideas. I started a Richmond-themed collage on the back of my front door. By time its finished, its really going to be something else. I'm proud to be living here, so, this is my effigy to the city. My next idea is a banner. I have ( Read more... )

I can laugh at my last entry, from two months ago, because life does that sort of thing to us. One day you're thinking to yourself, 'Things feel too good to be true.'  Your life, is almost exactly where you'd like for it to be. You got accepted to the school you aimed for (and this isn't the first time this has happened, but this is the time that ( Read more... )

I am happy about this, I understand that change and growth are both healthy human activities. On the other hand, being stuck in the interim gets very frustrating, which ( Read more... )

Its a done deal.
VCU, class of 2010. One Bedroom apartment on West Franklin Street.  August 11th I move in, August 23rd I start class again. Its all come together. And you can't even fathom how lovely it is to be able to breathe a sigh of relief. Success is the best feeling in the entire world.

I think silly little things sometimes. I know its human nature to recollect, but in regards to him, its compulsive. I was flipping through the pages of my Rilke book... I was flipping through and ended up at the little remnants of page that I tore out months ago. I thought to myself, wouldn't it be somethin' if he kept that poem, my favorite one of ( Read more... )

I've spending a lot of time back home, I brave both Virginia and Maryland rush hour and construction traffic, just so I can get as much time as possible with these loved ones of mine. My brother lives in Florida now, and my priority this month has been to be with him whenever I can while he's visiting. We're just silly as hell.
