This semester....so far

Currently, I am on a hill. Things seem to be going just right. I got accepted to the school that I wanted in to, there's a girl here that I've been getting really close to, and I haven't been too stressed out about anything.

I have to figure out where I'm going to live next semester, I have to move to Oklahoma, apply for student loans, scholarships and whatnot, and a few other things. I have a lot to do, but I've got a few weeks to get that done.

This semester has just begun, and so far, I've been handling it well, but, I know its going to get tough within the next week or so.

Like I said, I'm on the hill...meaning, the valley is on its way. Things don't stay good for long....

In college, a person can lose themselves. Actually, in just the grand scheme of life, a person can become someone they never thought possible. When you're young, you know who your friends are and you know who you are, but when sin and people who make bad decisions are introduced into your life, things are different.

Some people are people pleasers. They do what others want to do even though it may not be part of your lifestyle. I think so far, I've done what I've wanted to do. At first, I didn't see why it was so hard to choose who you want to be and stick with it. But as things don't work out the way you want them to, you choose new people to hangout with and then they are able to creep things into your life. Also, when people you've grown up with and love and have always been the ones you go to when your other friends are off drinking and being the average young adult and then they start becoming the average person, you have nobody to stick with. Nobody to relate to you. So you make wrong decisions to keep up with the friends you've known forever.

I drank for the first time a couple weeks ago. I've been totally against it, but through a chain of events, and friends who are doing it...I felt like I was becoming tempted too much.

I've been asked to go again a couple times since, but I said no. I don't think I'll do it again. I didn't really like it....I don't really regret it though.

I know what its all about now, plus I can't judge people anymore for doing it. I don't have that hatred for it that I did.


In other news: I think I'm going to take another year of pre-pharmacy at SWOSU. Perhaps live there and hopefully get into their pharmacy school.

Updated!

Although it's been months since I've updated...nothing enormous or awesome have happened. I have passed my classes, enrolled into new ones, and living life as I normally have. Though...I have been seeing things differently lately.

I don't drink, do drugs, etc... Though I've learned many of my friends do. I used to get disappointed in my friends for doing it. But, I think I've gotten past that seeing how its probably more my problem than theirs. My life has been negatively affected by alcohol, but that doesn't mean everybody's life has, therefore, I shouldn't get disappointed in other people for doing something the rest of the world agrees is okay to do.

I went to a party for the first time last night. I've been to gatherings where people were drinking, but never a full on party. I went to some frat house in Wichita where there were probably close to a hundred people, music, tons and tons of alcohol and drugs. I decided a long time ago that I'm going to choose who I want to be and stick to it, and I decided that I wanted to be the type of person who doesn't drink. I like being original, plus I think its just nasty. Last night I got asked hundreds of times if I wanted something to drink, to which I replied no thanks. Not that I wasn't tempted...I wanted to, but I knew if I did, I'd hate myself today.

So...this year, I'm going to live life as a college student should, minus me drinking and doing drugs. I'll go to parties and enjoy myself, I won't care about other people's business and their lifestyle. I've chosen mine and I'm going to stick with it. I won't get disappointed in my friends drinking or anything.

=D
