Just a day in the life

So long J-term hello Spring Semester.

First week into the new semester and I have high hopes. Bringing what I learned from my first semester as a Mt.Holyoke transfer student I feel rejuvenated and awake to the open door in front of me. This semester is going to fly by before I know it. Already one A Cappella concert down, four new div's to be sung in at 8pm, a book report and autobiography paper due friday; group this with sleep deprivation and personal dilemma and you have me week one.

I am overly optimistic, ready for the challenge and eager for spring. The blistering winds that whip around the brownstone buildings of this South Hadley campus wake me up each morning. I have a swanktastic single, complete with Keurig coffee maker and ten throw pillows- things are looking up up and uppp.

Update on: lifestyle

Change has swiftly become a part of my new year; a new tattoo! More pictures and explanation to 'twisted symbols' too come.

Second Welcome

With just 9 days into the New Year, I send a delayed welcome to 2010. Welcome and be good to us.

With this New Year I will be kicking it off with a new permanent addition to my life/body etc. A new tattoo is on my horizon. I know this was mentioned before, but now a date time and deposit have been made. Excitement. The last time I got a tattoo was close to a year ago (Rossetti on my inner foot) and this one means a lot. Pictures to follow.

Another delayed moment. I have always loved Adele, she’s simply magic. I have sang two of her songs before, one for a coffee house and one for my a cappella group (Hometown, and Right as Rain) but never knew any of her other music. So over Christmas Holiday I finally got around to purchasing her album 19. Every lyrics I could quote as explaining my life that much easier. Its music like this that makes me want to sing, and conveniently my a cappella group will be recording during the end of this month, and yours truly will be features, hold the applause.

With 2010 fresh and new I feel that a new start is in order. Jumping in with a new tattoo will help put things in perspective swiftly and with a little pain. I am done with the bullshit and ready to take on a change. I successfully passed this semester, not my greatest work, but I passed! I am o-k with a 3.0 gpa.

Lets do this!

Bliss, I think so

Can we classify this as an accomplishment?

Dear 2009,

You were wonderful, dreadful and exciting. Today you are over, and I am thrilled to close this chapter of my life. I have graduated with my associates, transferred successfully to a premier four year liberal arts institution, found love and lost love, gained friends and lost friends, traveled abroad to Ireland, traveled long distances in my trusty steed Stella the civic, laughed a lot and wept during times of importance.

What can be said about you 2009 is that I have changed tremendously as a result. When I work it I work the fuck out of it, regardless of what it may be, but still I find myself caught up in old games, and this years resolution will be to leave it on the table present myself the best I can and simply hope for the best but expect the absolute worst.

Sincerely yours,
A walker of this life.

Yeah, I had gay friends. The first thing I realized was that everybody's different, and it becomes obvious that all of the gay stereotypes are ridiculous. - Bruce Springsteen
