Wildcat

During the next four years, Lexington, Kentucky will be my home. There's not a better place in the world I think I could be. Consider me Big Blue Brainwashed.

The idea of being set free onto a college campus, sure to be wrought with countless antagonists to my educational pursuit, is still quite intimidating to a degree. I can say wholeheartedly, however, that after surviving my advising conference and registering for all my classes with minimal conflict, the transition from high school student to college kid will be less difficult than I first invisioned.

Every building was inviting. Each person seemed helpful. Every peer seemed as delusional about the experience as I felt. UK is going to be perfect.

I still have yet to receive my housing assignment. I hope my roommate is foreign. I'm unsure why - I'm just hoping. In addition to figuring out what's up with that, there's tons I need to do before the end of August comes.

I need to purchase a labtop, I suppose. That way, I can do the college thing with more ease, and have access to the web 24/7. I'll need to find a new means of supporting certain multimedia habits I've become accustomed to since my introduction to the internet, however.

I need to pack more stuff up from my room. I can't leave home without finding a safe haven for my Ron Artest figure (circa Sacramento Kings stint) and my Jessica Alba posters. Not to mention my Up! display from the community center.

I need to spend as much time as I can with my greatest friends in my last month as a permanent Martin County resident. I see at least one more trek for Yu-Gi-Oh! cards in my future.

I need to bestow some gifts upon a few people I cherish. 2 of whom have done too much more for me than I deserve. One who has done barely anything but astonishes me each time I'm with them.

I need to blog more, but don't know how easily that will be done due to my recent disconnection from the internet at home (cable problems, we'll call it).

I need to write a song - it's been a long time since I've done that.

I need to breathe every last breath of Martin County air I can. I adore the place as much as many people hate it. I'll miss it.

But, I'm off to new pastures. Not greener ones, necessarily, but definitely ones wrought with fresh oppurtunities.

And blue - filled with lots of blue.

Batman, AWAY!!!

  3. I hate the nursing home. They never have given me a day to come in for orientation. So expect to see me at the CC next week. That is if I don't get caught up in band camp...
