It has been true, for this blog as well as my past efforts, that I use this space to get stuff off of my chest and relieve myself of my worries. But I've spent the last month or two making some conscious changes and charting the course of things to come so to speak. Not only have I avoided some headaches that I would have normally encountered, but I've found myself in a position of balance over the past couple of weeks. It is nice to be able breath easy and see the fruits of my labor as they grow on the vine.
Exam 1 for Real Analysis is coming up on Wednesday this week and I am already prepared to do well. Though it hasn't been announced, I'm sure Exam 1 for Abstract Algebra will be within the next week so I've already started preparing test notes. Having taken these classes last semester is helping out a lot, and I like my current Abstract teacher a lot more than the one I had last semester. The only thing I'm not satisfied with in both of my classes is that I can't seem to find other people to study with. I even stood in front of the room at the end of class once and announced that I was looking for study partners. Damned shy undergrads.
I still don't have a car, but in just over a month I will have saved up enough money to at least make a down payment on something decent or buy something cheap. Even though I sometimes grow tired of my bicycle, I've grown pretty fond of it as a source of exercise and adventure. So I've already promised myself that, once I get a car, I will still bike when convenient. So I'll still bike to class, to the corner store if I want a beer, or just about anywhere within a mile or two as long as I can appear sweaty without being discriminated for it!
I'm a little disappointed that I've put my workout schedule on hold, but for right now I just can't seem to fit it into my schedule. My only choice would be to be at the gym at about 6:30am Monday, Wednesday, and Friday so that I have time to eat before class at 9:00. So I guess that's what I'm going to have to do if I want to build some muscle mass. Bring on the sunrise!
Remember that I mentioned about a month ago that I was into a new girl? Well things are progressing perfectly, especially for the fact that I am not falling into any of my past mistakes. Where I would have been too shy in the past, I have stepped up and initiated flirting. I haven't sat there looking dumb in awkward silence either. To make things better, all of the vibes I feel from her have been confirmed. I really do have to give myself a high five, because I would have normally fumbled this kind of scenario by now. The me of the past would have ended up calling her everyday or wanting to hang out all the time, but I finally feel comfortable using patience and discretion. And it doesn't hurt at all that we are both too busy for that kinda thing anyway. That, and I still feel like I'm about to throw up when I call her to make weekend plans. BLARG.
For my Denton readers, I have recently been cast for the latest Fight Boy Theater production entitled Talking With Michelangelo. We auditioned on Wednesday last week and I have earned a chorus role along with a couple of short lines in the first act. It's going to be fun as always with the Fight Boy crew. The only down side is that I have to miss a WHOLE MONTH worth of Heroes episodes because I have rehearsals. PFFT! I have to resort to watching them the next day, oh woe is me.
I haven't picked back up on my song list since school started, its just not high among my priorities right now. But I have been practicing some Jet City Rotation lately, and for a good reason! JCR is about to return to regular rehearsal schedule next week, and we have new music that we will be working on as well! So keep posted for more Jet City Rotation in a jet city near you!
