sometimes, life sucks like your mom and you feel like shit. other times, everything’s clicking into place and it’s awesome. it’s not one of those times at the moment, but in terms of happiness, the last little while since i’ve been back from seattle has been pretty good.
for the first time in oh probably five years, the majority of my courses are interesting. ok, so it sounds better in writing than real life, but i haven’t fallen asleep in any of my classes yet (although that might be because i have my laptop with me), and i actually want to find out more about the topics in 3 of my 5 classes. there are no assignments due, no stupid pre-labs, labs or post-labs to do; everything’s due at the end of the term. there’s no stress, i’m graduating, so school is good.
in addition to that there are lots of events happening such as all the fun grad stuff, info sessions, and just normal class gatherings. it’s nice to have a ton of people around instead of the same couple of people around in seattle (not that i’m saying that was bad eeps). it’s nice to catch up, and see what everyone is doing and what everyone will be doing.
and then there’s the question of what am i going to do with my life. i still have absolutely no fucking idea! anyways, it’s not that bad because i *think* i have a lot of options open to me so again, it’s not something i’m stressed or worried about. actually i think it’s uplifting because you know the crap that you’ve currently been working on is almost done and you have a bright future ahead of you.
the best of times is during the anticipation to something good happening. you know the outcome might be great, and it’s not necessary true that you’ll end up as a big fat failure.
so, in that respect. life is good.
