Today is Thursday, 3/13/2025, as in the day of the week that my life has always revolved around and the 5 year mark since the chaos of 3/13/2020 unfolded right before my very eyes. But that's not at all what this blog post is about, not even in the slightest.ย
After a long winter break from Friday, 12/13/2024 - Sunday, 2/9/2025, I began the spring semester of my freshman year of college at the same time I also came down with a stupid cold at the worst possible time (I still managed to drag myself to class all week to avoid getting dropped and to the club rush event on the 2nd day of the semester, plus I ran across town to purchase the required materials for my 1st 3D design class project).ย
Then, the next week, as I was checking my emails, I got an email from someone offering me a position for a work study job in the school library, which I accepted and proceeded to fill out the paperwork for (including a TB risk evaluation and a live scan of all 10 of my fingerprints). Now all I have to do is wait to receive an email back within the next week or 2 before I officially start my very first job. Once I earn and save up some money from this job, I'm considering taking my digicam across town to a local repair shop that might be able to open it up, diagnose the problem, and hopefully fix it (or perhaps tell me to go buy another Kodak Easyshare Z730 for like $30 on eBay if the worst comes to worse).
I'm currently taking 4 classes and will start the 5th one for the semester on Monday, 4/14/2025 (it's a late start class). Honestly, I've been enjoying the classes I've been taking throughout my time in college so far (even the few that I've sadly had to take online due to there being no in person, face to face options even 4 - 5 years later after the spring 2020 lockdowns that happened when I was only in the 8th grade).
St. Patrick's Day is coming up and I've got my outfit already to go. I just have to think about what I'm going to do now for my spring break coming up in April (other than taking another trip down to Knott's Berry Farm as a 2025 season pass holder and maybe asking about the Boysenberry Festival while I'm there, since that time of the year is coming up and the festival runs from April - May if I'm not mistaken). When the time comes closer, I'll see if any of my friends are planning on doing anything special during their breaks.
And of course, just like the last semester, I'm still single, looking for love and am still enjoying my newfound freedoms as an adult (my helicopter maternal grandmother still acts as though we live in downtown Detroit or something like she did when I was a minor, but now she has absolutely no legal authority to stop me from leaving the house on my own at whatever times of the day I want and hasn't since August 3rd of last year upon the celebration of my 18th birthday). If it's possible to get "high" from simply just living out your life, then I am absolutely feeling it right now, because my life fucking rules now that I'm an adult.
My high school years weren't really the best (with the exception of my senior year) but things certainly seem to be looking up for me for the most part as a college student. With that being said, though, I do miss some of the amazing teachers I had in the classes I enjoyed the most while I was there (most of which were during my senior year, funnily enough) as well as the friends I made while I was there. However, we all have to move on at some point or another, and I've been keeping in touch with some of my old friends at the same time I've made some new ones over these past few months.
But yeah, this is my ramble about some of the things that I've been busy with or have had on my mind lately. Now if you'll excuse me, I've gotta get back to finishing some notes and revising an essay that's due next week.

i absolutely feel u when u talk abt the "high" u get when u get the new freedom of adult life. i am turning 20 later this year n I still feel this way if not better.
also I'm sure ur tired of hearing this but love will find its way into ur life eventually. i feel like as u age everything just kinda settles down n finding someone 2 spend ur life with is prob part of that process.
