Kids These Years

So classes start tomorrow … and I’m not sure whether I’m looking forward to actually doing something with my life again or dreading the fact that I’m going to actually have to wake up in the mornings (especially tomorrow). A part of me would be content doing absolutely nothing for the rest of my life … possibly because of everything that’s happened in the past 6 months or so … or maybe I’m just obscenely lazy. Who knows. My schedule isn’t too bad … especially on Tuesdays because I only have one class … I would prefer if it wasn’t at 8 in the morning, but I guess we can’t ask for everything now can we?

If feel kind of empty on the inside now … like I’m no longer the person I once was. I see very little happiness in the world these days … making it that much harder to fake a smile for whomever happens to be around me. I find myself wallowing in my own heap of turmoil and sadness too often … so eager to find others to hang around … and yet so depressed that I could care less. Maybe a new school year will be bring new hope for happiness … hope of breaking the cycle of pain … all there is left is hope.

Saying I feel lost is the definition of an understatement …

Let the Good Times Roll

Only three more weeks until the dorms open back up. I can’t wait to escape all this … like that will make a difference, but maybe it will help a little. I miss being around so many people, even if it comes with homework. It’s been so hard going through literally everything in my mom’s house, trying to decide what to keep and what to get rid of. That sounds a lot easier than you might imagine. My sister and I recently had a garage sale, probably the largest one in history. It hurt seeing a lot of those things go, but I guess it’s for the best? All-in-all, we made a little over $1700 during our three day garage/estate sale. I’d say that’s pretty darn good. That just shows you how much stuff we have here. And only about a third of it sold (that’s a third of what we were willing to sell). So yeah … good times over here. My sister still says she’s going to put the house up for sale at the end of the year. That doesn’t really seem reasonable to me, considering she’s going to be the only one to be the to work on it, because I’ll be an hour and a half away at school (only available on the weekends to come and help).

Bah … life is all sorts of exciting over here :).
