Christmas and College

Well, there it is; the Christmas theme is up, and it's up early enough that it will get to stick around for a while. There's been a lot going on lately, and at the same time not much at all. I just spent most of last week doing a supplemental for a program I'm trying to get into at a college next semester. Turns out university isn't really what I'm looking for. If all goes well and I can work out the last few kinks in my application, and am a bit lucky, I should be in a different program at a college in January. I'm really excited about this. I've found an apartment that's a 15 minute bus ride from the school. This means I'll have to go back to the high school way of doing things, where I head into school in the morning, and don't come home till I'm done. I think that will help me focus a bit more.

Not only does college seem more my speed, but the apartment I'm looking at is also only a 15 minute bus ride from Amy's which will be nice. No more planning weeks in advance and then shelling out $40 in train tickets. I'll just be able to hop on a bus going that way on a whim. Next semester should be pretty nice.

It seems I've really gotten into cooking a bit more since I was sick that one week. I had to make my own food because walking to the restaurant was out of the question. I had a nice hamburger helper thing for diner tonight with mash potatoes. I quite enjoyed it.

Sometimes, I think it would be nice to have my own server, or at least a proper account on one, where I can upload little images willy-nilly, and organize it in a way that makes sense to me. A lack of being able to store images and get at them easily really limits what I can do as far as theming the blog goes. Also, there's other things I'd like to do that right now are going to require me to try and link several pages from different services together. Oh well, maybe someday. Then I'll just have to try and move all this and still make sense of it. It might be worth looking into though. Don't get me wrong though, I love Blogger and how easy it is to work with, I'm just the kind of guy who likes to get in there and build it myself to see if I can.

Well, that's all for now, I'm starting to ramble. Hopefully I can get some real projects going soon, projects that provide content. That would really be nice. Anyway, until next time...


I'm really going to miss all my friends here :(
