Here we are

Well, here we are..

Almost three months since my last post. I really don't know what to say to be honest. I suppose I'll just type as the words come to me.

I just pulled up my calendar and counted the week til it's officially my last week of school. 7 freaking weeks. I shouldn't put a timeline on everything, but lately that's what my life has felt like in the last few months. Deadline after deadline after fucking deadline. I know years from now I'll look back on this and laugh because my life was so simple. But really, if this is as good as it gets, I'm a little freaked out about the future.

I'm sitting in my office staring at piles of paper. Not any sort of insignificant piles of paper, but rather graduate and law school applications. I've decided to take a break from staring at my screen and take a break from writing in general to kind of reflect on a lot of things. In class today, I got into it with one of my good friends over google talk. I know, I should be paying attention but I know all the stuff in the class already. Anyways, we talked and he flat out told me that I would probably be a happier person if I didn't try so hard with women and just focused on what was important in life. He said that Fresno women aren't worth it.

I digress...

I saw a movie I hadn't seen in a long long time. The movie was Jerry Maguire. I don't like to compare my life to movies, but in a way mine is kind of like how his was in the movie. He's at the top of his game and then it's all taken away from him. But he finds a way to rebuild himself back up. I suppose that's what life really is about. Learning from your shortcomings and making sure they don't happen again.

I can't believe I graduate in 7 weeks. I feel like I've accomplished so much, yet there's more out there that I must achieve.

I ran into an old old friend today on campus. For those of you that read this and went to Clovis High, he went to HS with us. He was a senior when I was a freshman. This guy was one of the nicest, most genuine guys you'll ever meet. His name is Sam Duran. When I was walking to grab a bite to eat, we were talking about what my plans were after graduation. I told him that I was applying to law and graduate schools. After I told him why I wanted to go to law school, he said I should totally do it. It's always great hearing from people who've known you for a long time and they encourage you to do those sorts of things after not seeing you for a while.

Anyways...more to come later..
