Update on life: I've graduated from SIUC. B.S. English Education: check. I moved to Madison with the lovely boyfriend. I will start graduate school at UW in September. I'm currently grudgingly searching for employment - not real, adult employment - but your average part-time job. I'm still avoiding real life.
I'm broke and I am unfortunately coming to the conclusion that it isn't as romantic as they make it seem in movies and novels. But, I'm considering trying desperately to convince myself otherwise, even if it takes a lot of self-lying.
I have downsized the number of television channels I have access to by at least one-tenth, and for some reason I love it. Everyone should try it. There is something so incredibly liberating about only having a handful of choices to rot your brain with.
I'm redeveloping insomnia, which is bad for daytime production, but excellent for blog writing.
I'm staring to feel old. Not in the "those darn kids need to keep the noise down" sort of way (although I am starting an address book), but more in the pressures of my role in society. I don't especially like it. Since when does being 22 require any sort of true maturity? It shouldn't.
They say you never know what you have until it's gone. I'm currently experiencing that cliche with all of my dearest friends. I miss them and my previous easy access to their faces.
This concludes the update on my life. I will try to give the world some more thoughtful perspectives in upcoming posts, but I can make no promises.
xoxo,
Alex
JUST KIDDING - that will not be how I end my posts. I promise. I'd never even seen that show until yesterday (remember the limited channel options - and sorry to any fans, it will not be joining my list of guilty pleasures).
Post Script:
I stole this from Google, since I haven't yet brought my camera out on the town. Madison is a beautiful place.
