Hello everyone. I had a decent Christmas, and a fun New Year's eve. John and I went w/ my friend to her bf's house for his little shindig, and let me say that I'm happy John and I get along much better than those two. They just aren't right for each other....she needs someone who who pamper her and give her all their attention, and he needs....well...maybe a plant? Well, at least someone who's really laid back. I hope someday they each find someone more compatable, but they've been together for 4 years and have a baby...so I doubt that will happen anytime soon. Oh well, it made me appreciate what I have.
I got into a really stupid argument w/ a friend who I have been on the rocks w/, and she took it way too seriously like she does everything, and I have a feeling it will be a very long time before we speak again. I have conflicted feelings about it...on one hand I'm losing a good friend who I've known for years, but on the other it won't really feel too different because she's changed so much it feels like I don't even know who she is anymore. And I know people have the right to change and all and maybe its time that I should, but I couldn't help but get the feeling that she thought she was too "cool" for me what w/ her college buddies and unknown indie music and sudden interest in what's "hip". Oh well. Maybe we'll see each other again after we've both gotten all grown up and laugh at our friendship's petty demise. I just hope she does well and is happy. I really hope shes happy.
I was just looking at all the requirements at a local college for a degree veterinary technician, and my gosh that's a lot of stuff to learn! I don't even have the credentials to get in! Looks like I'm gonna have to get my butt into our local commnunity school and get some basic bio/chem skills under my belt. It's so strange that I've decided on a career in scientific studies...I've always and still am more artistically inclined than scientifically of mathematically. I think it will be challenging to study something out of my bubble though, and well worth it in the end. I've always wanted to feel more intelligently whole...maybe this is just what I need.
I had a wonderful past 3 weeks with John home for break. (That's why my updates have been sparse, haha.) Its awesome to be with someone who you connect w/ in so many ways...I think we are really growing w/ each other, and learning to better tolerate our differences. I think w/ him being gone has taught me a lot of patience. I've realized that I love him enough to look past his "flaws" and our dissagreements. I've felt what it's like to have him gone for a couple weeks at a time, and possibly losing him forever over a few trivial dissimilarities would just not be worth it. Sigh...I bet in about 2 weeks I'm going to write something like "God he can be such an asshole!!" Lol. Nothing's perfect, right?
Oh, and I'm sick too. Bronchitis. In case anyone was actually concerned about my health. Fare thee well!
