Had a great ego boost today. I had to do a workshop for school. I am studying law and security administration and working towards a criminology degree. I had to teach my classmates about something was basically the assignment. I did jiu jitsu and self defense. I got 106% percent on it which is awesome. My professor is a former police officer too and was telling me she will do anything she can to ensure I get whatever job I hope to pursue when I'm done with school. It was great to hear as I had really been second guessing my decision to go back to school. I sacrificed a lot to do it, but days like today definitely help keep me on the right track.
I've come to terms with my singleness as well. I'm really in a hard place with it right now, but I've realized I need to get used to it, with school and the fact that all my friends are in serious relationships, my ability to find someone is greatly hampered. When we go out for drinks, its always a pub, which is great if I wanna pick up older dudes (for the record I'm straight) or hit on the waitress like every other creep there. I've looked at the whole internet dating scene as well, but there is still that social stigma that is so hard to shake, I did meet one girl that way, but it just didn't really work out. It is tough, I mean I really do like being single at times, I appreciate my alone time (although with my xbox broken I'm certainly a little more lonely), but there is always times where I love having someone to talk to about my day, or just random bullshit. I also miss having someone to have regular sex with. I'm also not exactly what women my age are looking for as a student. Most are looking for an established guy with whom then can settle down and start a life: married, kids and the white picket fence.
I am still really excited about my summer job though. I think it will be a great new experience. It will be a small taste of the law enforcement world.
