It’s strange and depressing to think about who of your friends you’ll still be in touch with five, even two years from now.

But from what I’ve noticed, it seems like better people have filled the void of some of the close friends I had five years ago and drifted from. And only a small handful of those friends from that time have ‘made the cut’ so to speak. Some are truly amazing and fascinating individuals whose lives I really do care about.

Maybe that’s just how it works—you sort of subconsciously weed people out of your life as years go on, and the ones worth keeping stick.

Anyway, still sort of odd to think about—you can’t even carry on a conversation with the person you had everything in common with years ago. I think this phenomenon will become more bizarre as I get older. It makes more sense now because I’m young, and people my age are still changing so much.

With how inconsistently I use this now, I’m sure hardly anyone is reading. But I’ll post anyway.

Not much has changed, with everything and nothing going on. I am two semesters away from finishing undergrad. It’s the light at the end of the tunnel that used to seem so far away. That’s sort of how everything else feels though—it’s there, but intangible. Grad school, research, all that. Marriage, kids, maybe. Who knows. I am chasing my career more than I am chasing boys! That’s my choice though. Everything else will fall into place at some point.

However, I suppose the real issue on my mind is yet more family chaos. We got some bad (not awful, but still far from ideal) news today about my cousin, the one who had the brain injury. She has been progressing and recovering quite well apparently up until last night when my aunt and other cousin noticed that one side of her body was swollen, so they rushed her to the ER. As it turns out, she has a blood clot in her thigh AND pneumonia. What luck! I know both of these things are treatable, but those are tough ailments to beat for healthy people let alone someone with as much wrong as my poor cousin. I guess I’m just overly worried and thinking of the worst possible outcome. I just can’t though. At the same time all of this is occurring, I can’t help but think “Why? Why, why, why? When is it going to end? Haven’t we been through enough?” I may never know.

Perspective, perspective.

So obviously I voted for Obama—and obviously glad he won.

That said though, I just hope the next four years are better. I’d be lying if I said everything was coming up roses since ‘08. Though I feel like some compromise will have to be made with a heavily Republican senate. I’m okay with this being the centrist liberal I am.

Man, I haven't had the chance to be bored in weeks!

Thu, 08 Nov 2012 17:13:59 -0500

So here I am! I liked it at first, now I’m just getting restless. I would go run it off, but I have to leave in an hour for class.

Needless to say, the lack of updates come from my nose continually being at the grindstone. And going out periodically. My tumblr and DVR are dusty! I suppose this is all good though. I’m happier when busier. Now to find a job…

I know that so many people have it worse, but at times I feel like no one should ever go through what my family or I have to go through.

I am not at liberty to state said reasons, but none of them are good. Let’s also say that this year has been worse than others. Tonight, my mom was emotional and worrying about many of the current issues within the family, and I kept reassuring her that albeit hard, none of them are god-awful. Everything is and will be fine. She said it was a very Polyanna way of thinking, and maybe it is, but she forgets that I am primarily a realist. Apraxia isn’t a death sentence. Post-operation fatigue after a major surgery isn’t abnormal. The sky isn’t falling. Yes, we were dealt some tough cards, but we can’t lose sight of the progress and what CAN happen.

I don’t know, maybe there’s a reason I am going to be a psychologist and she isn’t. Or I’m just amazingly resilient.
