I'm back! From hiatus! I had a lot of shit going on and even though writing has been my outlet and a way for me to cope with everything, for some reason, I just couldn't blog. It wasn't working, it wasn't helping, and it was stressing me out more. A lot went down during finals and over break and in the past few weeks. Like:
-the deaths of several people close to me
-holidays with the family and close friends and ensuing drama/events
-Drifter breaking off whatever it was we had
-attempting to finalize plans for the next three years of my life
-learning that someone close to me is expecting a child soon
-a friend of mine getting engaged
-running into old friends and doing a LOT of catching up
-...including a very close friend from home telling me he was gay and had known for over a year, but was too afraid to tell me sooner
-immersing myself in a new world and diving head first into the culture
-being told by several close friends that I should seek medical and psychological help, as they speculate I might be suffering depression
-a good friend finally starting to wean himself off of the medications he's been taking his entire life
and probably a bunch more other things that I can't remember right now. And of course, there's the typical swings of emotions and thoughts from a day-to-day basis, work, classes, and everything else. I don't really have anything in particular to talk about right now or the time to necessarily do so, but every day I remember this blog and remember how long it's been and feel incredibly guilty. So hello, I'm still here and haven't forgotten about this little project, don't anyone worry.
Also, happy first birthday! It was technically 8 days ago, but like I said, I've been all over the place.
And more importantly, a shout-out to all the international viewers! Blogger is telling me that I have people from all over the world reading, which is AMAZING. From India to Russia to Slovenia to Australia to Canada to Germany to several other countries, that's so so cool to find out. So thanks, everyone! Hope I'm vaguely interesting and can get you all to keep coming back :)
Over and out,
I hope things are well for everyone out there!

Andddd Blogger just told me that this post got a view from a "legal" anabolic steroids website. Not quite sure how this got there, but I find that rather hilarious.
