Embracing the Newness of it all

Grrrr....I could have graduated cum laude if the college would have used the grades that I got this semester. I got 2 A's and a B+. It would have been 3 A's if I hadn't argued so much with my Brit Lit teacher about how papers are "supposed" to be written. I don't think there should be a straight format on my own opinion and blah, blah, blah. Hence the B+ instead of the A. Asshats. I could have had a nice yellow cord and heard the dude announce my name with "cum laude" at the end of it. I guess things could have been worse. But I was .002 points away from it, dammit!!!

Since the weather was nice and shitty all day, Dusty and I packed up a bunch of stuff. Sorry Paul, but your room is now full of boxes. It's amazing how much junk we had stuffed into this tiny apartment. I think the majority of my stuff is books and clothes. Dusty has alot more shit than I do, like massive amounts of video games and coordinating systems. He doesn't have just ONE system, he has a jabillion and doubles, sometimes triples, of some of them.

I'm looking forward to moving out of this apartment. I won't look behind me on the way out, either. I'm ready for change and there aren't too many good memories for me in this place. I've went through experiences more horrible than most people can even imagine here. I want out. I'm ready to start a new life, one where I won't have to be sad because I can't go out and party or hang out with college folk anymore. I'm ready to move on, start fresh, and not dwell on the past.

There is no where to go but up from here. I've hit rock bottom these past few months and it's time for things to change. I see this new house and new job as a window of opportunity that I can't miss. I embrace the new-ness of it all. I am determined to make the best of this life.

I'm ready for you life, here I come! You better be prepared! I WILL make a difference, I WILL achieve my dreams, and I WILL face this sickness head-on. I'm excited.
