So what do I do at 2am on a lonely Sunday morning? I listening to melancholy music and update my blog that I haven't touch all semester.
I've debated about that a lot. Why after almost four years did I stop updating this thing? I thought it be because there was just nothing to talk about and for the most part that was correct. But I could have done something with this thing. Another point was that no one reads this thing but DeAle now a days (Hi!) so what's the point? The point was for me to keep a record of my thoughts, my life, my history. That's something that I shouldn't let slip away into the depths of the internet. I like my blog.
But anywho, to the update. What's new with me?
A lot, I would like to say. I guess I'll list them in the order that they happened despite the fact it is a little backwards of the order that most people would do them in.
I got an apartment. Not like I had talked about in the past. I single bedroom. I decided to get a roommate. It was the more economical decision and there were many other reasons for me to do it. Like I get lonely and I don't need to be that far away from the few friends I have. Kenny, of course, is my new roommate. Something that both him and I worry about considering his past with roommates, but I won't be like them and as long as he doesn't go into full bitch mode with me over something we should be good. We have a very nice place. Two bedrooms, 2 full baths, 2 living rooms, washer and dryer hookups, and a kitchen. One of each on a two story townhouse. Kenny and I get our own floors and we never really have to bother each other. I'm on the first floor so I don't have to walk up and down stairs which I like very much.
I got a car. It's a good car. A 99 Ford Taurus with 107k miles. It runs perfectly. You can't even hear it running when it's idling. When we bought it, it wouldn't start, but after Chris replaced, the fuel filter and gas pump it starts perfectly. It's even a bit peppier when you drive it now. I like it. : ) Now I just need to get the breaks replaced and the air conditioner charged. Oh and Chris wants to replace the spark plugs.
I got a driver's license. It took me a month just to be able to take the test while dealing with all the bureaucracy between Richmond and London, Laurel and Madison County. Then it took me three attempts to actually pass the test. The first two times, I failed for not stopping at a stop sign. The third time, I'm surprised I passed. I screwed up some stuff pretty bad and the stuff I did get right, I did on accident. I think she just passed me so she wouldn't have to see me again. Chris, my brother who went with me to take the test, said that she seemed worried about my driving. Not for my sake, but for everyone else’s, lol. Although she did say she thought I wasn't bad, just really nervous and that's why she went ahead and passed me which I was deeply greatful. Driving myself places is fantastic. I don't have to wait on people or ask people for rides. I love it.
I think most people do it in the other direction.
Driver's license > Car > Apartment
Meh,
Ces't le vie!
And oddly, I don't have a job to pay for it all! I guess that'll be last on the list.
That's about it for right now. Finals are next week and I'm excited to have classes finished and the summer to myself. Not sweltering upstairs in my Mom's house, with a bedtime, chores, and accomplishing nothing at all. Hmmm, I should join KFA again.
Anywho, I better hop off here and get some sleep tonight!
