Weekly Update or Of Late Nights and Boredom

As I sit by myself in the common room on a Saturday night, procrastinating before my inevitable attempt at studying and doing homework, I wonder about the changes of this week.

This week I let go of someone who had a huge impact on my life in hopes of a beginning anew. A beginning for myself, for my future. While I am always saddened by having to let people go, I find comfort in all those who are still around me. I know that, because of them, I will always be alright in the end. In light of the events this week, I have come to realize my most important friendships. Not only the friends who gave me the condolences that I asked for, but those who gave them to me freely. For these people, I am truly grateful for their undying compassion towards me. I can only hope that I never do something to alienate them or drive them away from me.

At the same time, I also once again have no clear idea what I want to do for my life, which I should decide on a relatively sooner scale of time, I think?

On other notes of my life, I let go of Facebook, to a surprising resistance. While, I do slightly miss the updates on my friends life, I have picked up Twitter in exchange. I can be found here.

My nights have grown into the same but changing pattern. While I actually am able to finish my work well before 12, my life is now defined by the hours after it. The many nights of staying up talking with the same few people, about everything and anything that we know anything little or lots about. While the new nightly trends have been more healthy and a bit crazier or random-er, they are most definitely just as significant as before. In the end, this is what I will remember about freshman year and college. For now, I'm pretty sure I'll be ok with this.
