It has been an inordinately long time since I've written anything but now that I'm in Florida with plenty of time on my hands I figured what the hell... First of all, it is weird as hell being so far away from basically everybody. I miss my friends and even though I love my family to death, I would prefer to have more balance. The balance that once was in my life has completely separated, leaving two (more like three...Cornell, Monty, Florida) distinct pieces. The weirdest thing is that I'm caught in a mood of both serenity and sadness. Its upsetting that I need to divy up my time between my friends and my family but I'm happy for my parents as the house in Florida is beautiful and they are both happily retired. Eh...so I guess I'm just not really sure how to feel anymore. I am HORRID at keeping in touch with people I want to. No matter what I always seem to find something else to do to keep me from going online and talking or even calling them on the phone just to say hi. Ya know, I really think I need to do that more often, just call people to talk. I dunno, maybe I'm just paranoid that some people would be weirded out by that but I do just like talking sometimes, with nothing specific in mind. Thinking to myself now, the lonliness of being so far away from my friends may be causing that inclination. Eh...what's causing it isn't really that important anyway. P.S. Remind me to stab myself for using the word 'weird' and its forms wayyyyy too much. In my search for an internship I was put into contact with this lady from DEKA, the company that makes Segways and other interesting inventions. I called her and she told me to email her my resume so I promptly did. Now I just wanted to be sure that she got my email with my resume attached with no problem so I decided to follow up and call her again. I left a voicemail and did the same a week later. This was before Thanksgiving... All she has to do is give me a call and say, "I got your email and resume no problem!" Done. I think I may be becoming a slightly angrier person than I once was. Going back to my roots in Monty should cure this, I hope. Xanga, lol. I love it. To whomever reads this, I sincerely thank you as you are a true friend. Jeremy |
