Reintroductions

Well, its been an aweful long time since the last time i posted. Things have been happening to me all crazy. this post will just have to be a general update.

First, i have been spending a lot of time writing. This will probably really suprise people that know me well. Anyone that knows me knows i am a woman of words and action, not quiet introspect and writing. But i have been writing short personal pieces and its helped me through a lot of things and also helped me become a better writer, which originally was the purpose of this blog, but i lost sight of that. So i will be doing my writing here from now on, i hope that i can promise a higher standard for quality of technique in coming posts.

Second, i am still single. I never thought it would last this long. Noone wants to hear me whine about relationship troubles so i wont, but i am saying, thats all.

Third, i turned 21! It was nothing big. Anyone in college has been pretending they were 21 since they got here so i didnt have any huge celebration or anything. I had a great dinner with my parents and spent some time with some friends. My weekend after was a little wild but there are very few witnesses to that effect so i dont feel obliged to fill my readers in. You will just have to use your imagination... or better yet, dont!

Fourth, i got a new bike! maybe that isnt as exciting to some people as it is to me but i got a refurbished track bike (fixed single-gear) and i am learning how to ride it. I am doing well, but i havent mastered the skid-stop yet so i still need my front brakes. I will probably keep them on after i am a better rider just for safety sake or if i want to resell, but soon i wont need to use them!

Finally, i got my own place! i am moving to an apartment on the western edge of center city and i can not wait! I sign lease this week. I am quitting my job as an RA (freeing up a spot for all you hopeful spring hires) and striking out on my own. I will have info on my housewarming soon.

So thats really the gist of things. Thigns are generally thumbs up with me. I am trying to focus on the sunny side for a while. I am finding myself very introspective and that will probably show up in my blog at least for a while. I know journal-like blogs can be boring, but just bear with me for a while and i promise i will snap out of it.

Always always,

Morgan :-)
