Well. My life has been nuts lately. I hope yours is going much more swimmingly.
I'm a week and two days from graduating and it's still surreal. The closer I get to that day the less I sleep at night. I'm not sure if my body is rejecting the idea of adulthood, or if I'm so overwhelmed by the idea of adulthood. Either way adulthood is looming and it's scary, but I'm prepared to stumble soberly into it as best as I can.
I've been a busy busy bee designing and working and schooling and socializing. It's been quite a few weeks. But the greatest of news is that I am the official owner of my first Mac - and iMac to be exact and although I'm sure my parents might not have faith in my ability to pay for it in an orderly fashion it's my goal to pay it off before I even need it to be. I'm ready for this small responsibility and if anything it will push me to grin and bear design jobs I don't want, if only to gain experience and money from it so I can pay it off.
I'm ready to be a big kid. I'm ready to live out my dream life and I'm prepared to do whatever grunt work I need to do to have it. Bri Emery didn't wake up with all her majestic belongings on the day she started her first job. Duh. My room may still be a mess majority of the time and I may eat McDonald's for lunch but I'm happy and content with my life right now - no matter how much I want to cry sometimes.
In other, and maybe even embarrassing news, I have ventured into online dating. It was last week at 3 a.m. that I stumbled upon the idea and here I am. It's just so hard to meet people at school that I would actually even be friends with, much less date. And my day-job is for soccer moms that need birthday presents so again, it's hard to meet eligible guys these days. Plus so many of my friends have done it so I'm not too ashamed... TOO. I've been messaged quite a few times, but majority of the people on these sites are either A. Creeps or B. Just looking for a hook up and I'm not down for any of that. So needless to say it's been... interesting. But I did meet one guy and we even have mutual friends so I'm hoping that the coffee date we go on won't be a total disaster. I know my Mom is concerned, and trust me, I am too, but my friend is working at this coffee house and will be there when we meet so if I need real serious rescue, she will be there to save me.
So let's just see what kind of crazy thing life hands me next. I'm ready to start really putting effort into this blog and seeing what kind of creative outlet it can be for me.
Until next time!
