I am in love. I have been swept off my feet in such an indescribable way that i'm bursting with joy. No, there isn't a new man in my life, on that I have almost completely given up hope, but I am in love nonetheless. I'm actually in love with school. For once in my life, I wake up in the morning with reason to carry on the day. Much of my summer and first semester this year I searched for reason to live, let alone reason to enjoy a perfectly good day. I am confident in my major because I begin each Art History class anxious as to what i'm going to learn today. Having found this confidence has changed, well, everything. I'm just happier about things. I don't let the little things bother me anymore. I'm in a Mythology class that I love, mostly because of my friend Andrew. He is seriously the coolest person I know. He has a really vast range of musical knowledge, which, impresses the hell out of me. I love music but know so little compared to people like Andrew and Steph, too. You guys are my heroes. Our teacher is so strange and I love it. He make's odd comments that are just hilarious. That's him in my little sketch. That's almost exactly what he looks like. I'm just so excited that i'm finally moving on and enjoying life. I know it all sounds so corney, but I don't even care. I don't feel like I have to sit around my apartment fixated on being alone for the rest of my life. It's like if I can just find some confidence in who I am and learn to like who I am, surely someone out there might like me, too. I am thrilled. I'm finally moving on. Losing Kayla was a really hard time in my life and I still miss her like crazy. Though we remain great friends(the best i've ever had.ever.) and I wait for her visits, I think i'll be okay here by myself. I'm so giddy. I love it. I even enjoy work. I just got a raise. I can't believe it. This is so fantastic. I don't even have words for just how excited I am.
