2:57 am - A long awaited end...a fresh beginning
|
It's the end of January. There is a lot that has happened since my last update, so i'll do my best to stay on track here.
We'll start from the time of my last update. I mentioned that I had a new girlfriend, that's Erin. We've been together since October 14th. Hasn't been that long, but everything up to this point has been good. She's been a good friend of mine for quiet awhile, so I really think that makes things easier.
As far as job goes, I'm still working at Mulligan's, which is going all right, and I am also working at Gamestop, which is friggin sweet. Definately one of the most enjoyable jobs i've ever had, especially when everyone I work with is awesome as well.
I'm back in school at NMC. Last semester I took one class, which sucked by the way. I'm still not taking the course load I want yet, I'm only taking nine credits, but I suppose it's not too bad considering i'm working two jobs as well, and trying to make time for my friends, for Erin, and just for relaxing in general. I find that I actually enjoy being busy compared to not being able to do anything, which I found out just recently.
Most of January I was kind of out of commission because of having mono AND strep throat. Not fun, that's for sure. I spent the majority of the time on my couch. After the strep was gone I tried to go out a little. I'd go to the mall with some friends for lunch, but usually not eat becuase I just wasn't hungry. Even spending like and hour at the mall was completely exausting, which sucked. But whatever, i'm feeling good now, i've been going to my classes, and working again, so it's really nice being back in the swing of things.
Life has been far more intersting than just the things i've mentioned, but most of it isn't that important or just not for the general public to know. I'll try to keep this thing updated more often, but no guarantees. But in short:
Life is Good
Xander leaned his head back in contemplation, wondering where Tryn could be; if she was safe, or even still alive. Even through his darkened heart he could still feel love, he just couldn't remember how to use it...

12:41 pm - Corey and Andrew go to White Castle
|
Ok, so, it's been awhile. Life has been rather boring up until this past weekend, and even up until now. Last Thursday, I became no longer employeed at Boone's (long story), so I was kind of freaking out. However, I could not very well stay in such a depressed mood when I then went to hang out with two guys that totally reek of awesomeness; Andrew and Pat. We were preparing for the road trip of a lifetime; a trip to Detroit to see Nine Inch Nails and Queens of the Stoneage in concert. We stay at Andrew's that night, then played an ass load of Magic the Gather the trading/collectible card game. Once 9am rolled around that morning, we were off. First stop: Andrew's dad's office.
For our first stop, which should have been very short, this took far too long. Andrew's dad being the person that he is, he was freaking out, talking about how black people just magically appear from the shadows and want to steal your stuff and rape then murder you. Yeah...right. Anyway, after discussing a bagillion maps, we were on the open road..err..well...kind of. (As a quick note, Andrew's dad totally made a shoe check on Pat when we walked in. Pat doesn't like wearing shoes, incase no one got the memo.) We decided that we were all hungry, so the next stop was my house to pick up Dylan and head to the mall for many munchings! I had some damn good Taco Bell, let me tell ya. After having our fill of various foods that probably aren't good for us but we eat anyway, we dropped Dylan off again, and were finally on our way.
The trip down went fairly smooth. Me and Pat had some fun flashing signs that said "I Just farted" and "My brother is locked in the trunk" to elderly people, all while rocking out to Blind Guardian. Good times. So anyway, we got to Marine City, where we were dropping Pat for the weekend since he was staying with his grandma and then headed for Andrew's grandparents house. After arriving, I learned something that would be very important for this weekend of fun: Andrew's grandparents are completely badass.
The stay was pretty sweet. We went to an itallian deli, and had some AMAZING pizza. Three larges for $10..god I wish we had that here. We then went to Krogers, stocked up on snacks, Monster, and Mountain Dew, then played Magic again for the duration of the first night while catching some very good episodes of That 70's Show.
Moving into Saturday, the day of the concert, Andrew's grandpa went to downtown Detroit with us to show us a few alternate routes home from the concert, which was at the Joe Louis Arena. After that we went back and prepared for the concert of a lifetime.
Hours went by, then finally we made it to the concert, and it, was, INCREDIBLE!!! Best friggin concert I have ever been to. But from here, the fun begins. We start heading home, and duh duh DUH, we take the wrong exit. Now, honestly, it wasn't a big deal. It took us to the road we needed to get to anyway. But this lead to the most important part of the entire trip...we found a White Castle. Not just one, but FIVE!!! Well, 20 burgers and 4 fries later, we were very happy. Lost, and Andrew was freaking, but there it nothing like an adventure that ultimately leads to having White Castle.
Finally Sunday we came home, and I got a new job working as a cook at Mulligan's. And, last but not least, I have found a significant other! YAY! More details to come...but for now...PEACE!!

7:49 pm - I like cereal
|
All right, well, it's been awhile, so...here goes nothing.
Summer ended far to soon. I am left with a void inside like there was so much more that I wish I could have accomplished but never had the chance to do. And maybe to an extent, there was a lot more I wish I could have done. There are people I wish I could have spent more time with, but didn't, and I hate that fact. I feel like i'm losing touch with so many people, and that thought doesn't sit well with me. Granted, I can't keep in contact with everyone I went to high school with, nor do I really want to, but there are friends, and even some that I wasn't very good friends with that I wish I could keep talking to, but seem to be losing. I guess the blame lies with me however. There is so much more I could have done to possibly save these friendships, or make them stronger, but I failed at doing so. Failing...I seem to be doing a lot of that lately. I'm just falling so far behind in everything. Friends, family, work...bah. If you read this, you know me, I over react about everything, but somehow I just don't think it's so much of an over reaction this time.
For starters, I got a new car. A 2004 Ford Focus. Now granted, this is a very good thing, and i'm really stoked about having a new car, it also means more money I have to spend. I'm $11,000 in the hole, and then there is the insurance...plus i'm still trying to pay off Wes's parents for the camry, there is my rent, and after that I'm just barely getting by. There is just a lot of stress involved with making the money to afford all this, which i'm having a hard time doing. I can't really complain, I have a rather good life, especially considering what's happened with the hurricane. I know some people that had their houses destroyed, and my heart goes out to each and every one of the people involved. I have no right to complain about my life when they are struggling so much more, it's just kind of hard not to sometimes, ya know? Damn human nature.
On a more positive note, I had a very nice conversation with Keegan last night, and we're hanging out tomorrow, so that will be pretty freakin sweet.
And...well...I guess that's all for now. I feel like I have more to say, but nothing is coming to mind, and it just seems right to end the entry now, so, I am.
Tryn shivered as the wind blew the snow around her. Being an etherial being for so long, she had forgotten how fragile the human body was. Vhalin came from behind and wrapped his arms around her, holding her close. Tryn's heart started to race and she became very uneasy. An angel in love with a human...it was unheard of. But it didn't matter anymore. They were the same now.

11:27 am - Wishing on a dream that seems far off...
|
Two jobs, soon to be school, friends, family, even thinking about starting a relationship...so many things, not even close to enough time. I'm starting to feel more and more like i'm losing touch with reality as a whole. Don't get me wrong, I love my life. I have nothing to really complain about, but I find myself getting lost in life and forgetting where i'm going, or even where I came from. Just makes you want to start screaming, ya know?
Life for my dad hasn't been that stable either. He works easily more than triple the hours I do, which honestly would kill any other man, and he's just had so much mental and emotional stress, I just don't know what to do for him anymore, if there even is anything I can do.
Hrm...I don't know really. I am by no means depressed, but i'm really all that happy either. I'm just trying to hold on to a time when nothing mattered, and I didn't have to worry about the problems in life. Too much to ask I suppose. I just need to figure out where my life is going, then maybe...maybe things will change.
Vhalin fell to his knees in shock, clenching his fists and beginning to cry. Everyone he had ever known; had ever loved, were all dead. Clenching his fists tight enough to draw blood from his own palms, he let out a scream of pain then fall back in to the rubble, weeping uncontrollably.

2:23 am - Naturally and Artificially Flavored
|
So, today was pretty boring. Had my usual day at work, but then went to chill with Wes, Steph, and Bomski, and that was pretty sweet. We ate a Big Boy, with our forts (rofl) while Wes and I practiced our zebra calls (don't ask). Then went back to Wes's house, and me, Wes, and Steph just talked about when we all first met, and what has happened in our lives and all that fun stuff. It was a good night. Just thought i'd share that since i'm really bored. ^_^
Anywho, i'm going to bed. Nighty night everyone!

Life.
Well, it's pretty damn good actually. I decided that it was time to start over, so I have moved my inner most thoughts here. I guess I should start with a little review. I am not going to bore everyone with the details, but rather just say that the first half of this year was a rather depressing one. Granted, I was able to keep up high spirits, I lost myself into a sea of unending depression more times than I would like to admit. I thought that there was a light that I couldn't see anymore, that maybe as hard as I had fought, or as happy as I had told myself I was, I was beginning to realize that I hadn't been so happy for the past however many months. I let myself become a person I wasn't proud of being, and I let myself live in a darkness that I thought was so bright. This had to change.
It is hard to explain what sort of transformation, if that's what it could be called, has happened to me. I wake up every morning just happy to be alive, a feeling I am sad to say i've never had until now. I look forward to going out each day, knowing that a new adventure is out there, knowing that something new will happen to me every day, regardless of how small and insignificant it is, there is always something out there. I have two amazing jobs that I actually look forward going to almost every day, and I have some of the best friends that anyone could ever ask for (you all know who you are <3), and it would seem that everything is finally falling in to place with my life. I think I have figured out what to do with my life as far as my studies and possible career. I am planning on starting up with Culinary Arts, mainly doing chef training. It's something i'm actually really stoked about. I am also really excited about someone else that has come back in to my life, and is hopefully going to be around for awhile. Everything is just amazing right now, and I really couldn't ask for a better life. Thank you to everyone that has stuck with my through thick and thin. And those of you that haven't, well, I wish you the best in life.
Thanks again everyone. You all are the reason I am so happy.
Vhalin laid back, folding his hands behind his head so that he may rest it. Charity then laid her head on Vhalin's chest, looked at him with such innocent eyes, and smiled. Thought neither of them would admit it, there was a love between them stronger than any war could shake.
"What?" Vhalin asked with a smile. Charity just looked at him and continued to smile, then replied with "Nothing..."

Tonight....
My stomach is in knots, my mind is running a mile a minute, my heart is racing, I just...I can hardly describe how I feel right now. I'm just truly, and completely content and happy.
