so this is the new year…

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Oh but a few more days until class and work start back up. Well, the 4th for work…classes start in little over a week. Slightly excited about that. Slow, plodding, methodical, yet forward-moving steps towards graduation, haha.

This is the first new years I haven’t done anything / had company since I was 16. Friends invited me places, parties were available…I just had no desire to fight the crowd and be around a room full of drunks.  Worked on the development of that dream I posted and am surprised to see its coming along rather nicely.

It seems like my creative juices have been overflowing so I’m trying to make the most of it while I can. Maybe my mind is making up for being temporarily stuck…nothing much has been going on so maybe I’m creating my own world? Okay, it sounds frightening when put like that but I’m enjoying writing again. This past week or so has been dabbling in photoshop. It’s surprising how much can be learned in such a short amount of time. However, I never quite found my niche in the digital arts. Pretty much I just want to sit down and play with it…

My grandfather just got out of the hospital fairly recently–he had a severe blood clot in his leg and so we’ve been spending a little bit of time together. He let me borrow his acoustic-electric and I’ve been sitting down playing that. Having Eric and Aaron both in town has reignited my desire to learn to play.

Oh, I know I posted about Garfunkel and Oates but you should look at some of the separate short films of Kate Micucci and Riki Lindhome as well…they can most all be found through a google search or on youtube. Definitely been a source of entertainment as of late.

Definitely feel myself going into hermit mode as of late. Not for any particular reason just one of those times where I’m in the mood for reflection. Ah, coffee is brewed…
