Guess what.

Trying my hand at blogging yet again! It was my 2009 resolution to keep a regular blog... just like it was my 2008-2009 school year resolution to keep a hand written journal. Yikes. I was reading those old entries... it's weird to think what a different place I was in then. Let's do a little comparison, shall we?

I was halfway through my junior year of college. I was stressed out with classes, particularly those most important for my neuroscience major. I was on the brink of a new romance. I was hating my leadership position in my choir. I was extremely happy with my living situation. I was quite a different person.

Now, I'm a college graduate. Not so stressed out about those neuro classes anymore considering I've got the degree now. I'm also very much single, and not really happy or sad about it. I'm not in a choir anymore because I graduated, and I know I'm going to miss it along with all my other musical outlets. I wouldn't say I'm unhappy with my living situation now that I'm back at home but it's definitely different. Sometimes I don't feel like my room is actually mine, which is hard my room was completely my own place at school. There are advantages to living at home... mostly of the monetary kind. Considering I'm starting graduate school classes in about 2 days, I'm really not going to have time for a job so I can't really start saving for my own place yet. My best guess is that I'll be able to move out in about 2 years, maybe 3. That is, unless I absolutely hate commuting and need to get a place closer to school in the fall. Which is totally possible.

Anyway, that is what has changed in the time since I last blogged. And that's quite a lot. I really hope this doesn't turn into another abandoned journal! Especially since I enjoy looking back on old entries so much. Until next time...

P.S. - A note on the title of my blog. It's the name of one of my favorite songs by Marina and the Diamonds. I recommend giving it a listen/checking out the video here - I can definitely relate to the lyrics, and I think it's a fabulous song.
