Been a while since I posted, but I'll bite.

Summer's closing up and I've spent the time sailing and saving up for a vehicle after an accident in my first car (poor baby). It's an older community here away from university, so it's tough finding friends my age. Nothing wrong with older folks, but explaining my headphones, longboard, and college plans repetitively is getting boring. Thankfully, I'm building some friendships online and in person and having some good conversations that are interesting and pertinent to what I'm dealing with personally. It's a nice time, so far.

Recently found out my financial aid is coming back, which is great because that's been a huge concern all summer. I'm college bound for the third year! I'll be heading off and leaving this quaint little coastal town in a week to visit friends and bum enough rides to get back to school.

I'm content with life right now. I can still feel the salt on my face from sailing this morning, I'm covered financially for school, working hard this summer has given me a comfortable bank balance, and I see my girlfriend on my way back to school. It'll be the first time seeing her since the beginning of summer. A week with her in her new apartment is just what I need to finished this relaxed season up.

When I get back to school, I'll be a senior member of the ultimate frisbee club, hold an RA position, finish up my first major and start work on my second, and generally get back into the flow I'm comfortable with. I feel pretty optimistic right now, which is a welcome change.

This was a good little evaluation for me today, gave me something to be thankful for :)
