A New Chapter

I took this pic of East Philly on Labor Day 2005.

Life right now is very different from anything I've ever lived before.

1. Graduate school
I'm here. The things I'm learning relate directly to my career. I'm not learning physics, bio, or chem. I am literally learning how to be a physical therapist. Weird...

2. Living on the East Coast
I've left my comfort zone. I'm farther than I have ever been from everything that I know and love. And I am all by myself here.

3. No current romance
So much all by myself. Broke up with my boyfriend of six years. And I guess I'm lonely now. I'm just so used to expressing and giving my love and now I feel like I have all this affection to give and no one to give it to. There are so many things I miss about having someone. Don't get me wrong, I'm perfectly fine being on my own, but I just really miss having that connection with someone. Ick, this sounds so pathetic I have to stop talking about it!

4. Blogging
Before I used to blog because I knew that someone in particular was reading it. Not so much these days. I don't even know if that person still reads this. Now writing has become a nice outlet for things. My very first entry into this blog I asked, who in the world is ever going to read this? But now, that doesn't matter anymore. This blog has come to be an outlet for rantings about physical therapy school, thoughts about life in general, and poetry from time to time.

I think that's all I have to say for now. David out. ;)
