| blood revolution |
| 03.19.05 (3:14 pm) [edit] |
I haven't donated blood (maybe early next week?), yet it seems thin. Why else would 60-something seem colder than freezing?! I'm talking about the house I'm living in and outside, as well- jeans and socks and a jacket just don't cut it.
I don't know what to say- I went to a Kindred Fall concert Thursday night. It rocked, and Aaron has or is putting some pics on his site. It was in a small local coffee house called the Ugly Mug. Two of the guys (in Kindred Fall) live w/ Aaron and 2 other guys in a house- and the three of them were roommates freshman and sophomore year. It's definitely a different experience to hear the band live in the same room, as opposed to through the floorboard when they're practicing in the garage. They're both exciting, but in different ways.
Have you joined (heard of at least) the revolution that's sweeping the nation world? Check it out, and sign the guestbook- there's a lot of insightful people represented there.
OK, now that I've had a record number of links, I'll log off. I've been doing well, trying to keep busy, trying to be patient or something w/ this 3rd job- the one that is keeping the position open for I don't know how long- it's hard to know what to do. I really want to pick up more hours, but what I'm looking at (private tutoring) would conflict with this potential job- it's hard being patient or listening to God sometimes. In other news, somehow, Aaron and I haven't managed to eat much this week, but we have. I mean, we've eatten healthy food and plenty of it, yet we hardly touched the groceries from last week- I don't know what happened. Oh, and I also don't know why I haven't been enthusiastic for a while. About some things, yes, but stuff that matters? I kind of think that's why I haven't gotten hired at this place- when she asked if I had any questions, I said, "No," meaning she did a good job explaining, but I guess that makes it seem like I'm not curious or interested in the job. But I am. And I'm going to the dentist when I visit my family in April. And hurray for libraries and Saturdays. One last thing- we went to see the play Princess Margerie, it's world premier, last night w/ some friends (student rush tickets= a fraction of cost; I fell in the same price category, under 25) Aaron and I sat in a box seat, and we both thought someone would get shot. No one did. I didn't know what it was about 'til I got there, and still didn't get the moral lesson by the end. I'd say pass on it- but the set looked good- very simple, mostly white, but strips of pink or blue lights on the frame of the rooms to give an illusion that they're painted those colrs, while it's only frames- no drywall or anything. I'll leave w/: it's great to sometimes be content w/ the situation you're currently in, like me being under 25, and hanging out and such, but then again, there's so much more I want to do! I can never rest long.

Maybe you are experiencing a little culture shock? New town, new weather pattern, new house, new friends, etc. The excitement at first is great, but then when the bills, mundane things, etc. come along you wonder if something is wrong with you.
I am like you, I need new things to make me feel alive and excited. Or at least I need to recognize new things in my situation.
This might be a feeling that passes with time. I am not sure, but any normal human being would feel displaced right now in your situation. So don't feel like your parents were right or that you made a mistake. God is in control and it is ok to feel a little confused or down. It is even ok to show those feelings, you don't have to be happy all the time :)
