  • Update

    Aww thanks for everyone’s supportive comments on my last post.  I don’t want people to think I was depressed or anything.  Honestly, I think that my life just keeps getting better and that this is the most happy I’ve been in my life so far.  It was more a nostalgic reminiscing of the carefree times I had in my youth where I wasn’t burdened with so much responsibility.  But I realize that having increased responsibilities doesn’t mean that I can’t have fun.  It’s just that fun is different now.  It’s no longer about getting wasted in some random club but more about spending quality time with those I care about.  And there are still a lot of things I haven’t experienced yet that I can still look forward to…I just have to be more creative and manage my time better.  In that vein, I’m thinking of planning a trip for the weekend before my summer session starts 5/29-5/31.  Either backpacking to Havasupai Falls or kayaking down Black Canyon.  Let me know if you’re interested.
     
    Some things to look foward to:
     
    5/1 – skydiving (maybe do AFF this time?)
    5/16 – Society of Cosmetic Chemist Dinner Dance
    5/24 – Danny & Patty’s wedding
    6/4 – surfing trip to Mexico ?
     
    And hopefully one more Mammoth trip…I’m thinking of not renewing my pass for next year.  That’ll make me want to plan snowboarding trips out of state.  Not really getting my money’s worth from the pass anymore.

  • Getting Old

    Lately it seems like so many people are getting married or having babies.  Makes me feel so old.  I can’t believe I’m going to be 30 this year, wow.  The gray hairs are definitely starting to show.  Lately life has just been so busy with work and school.  I feel stressed out all the time.  Need to go work out more.  I should be closing on a new townhouse in a few weeks.  Seems like such a big responsibility.  Does this really mean I’m an adult now?  Life doesn’t seem to be as exciting as it used to be…now it seems all about obligation and duty.  At work, I’m actually the industrious hard worker now instead of the slacker.  I guess that comes with being in a supervisory position. Very little enthusiasm left.  My attitude lately has been one of been there done that.  I think I just need a vacation but I’m gonna be so broke soon after putting all my savings into a 20% down payment.  Too lazy to even blog properly and write in complete sentences.  Just another case of the ho hums.  OK enough procrastinating for now…back to schoolwork.
