Currently Listening Wincing the Night Away By The Shins see related

^-- hopefully buying tickets to that concert today.  hoorah.

so it's pretty amazing how much your environment, particularly the people you surround yourself with, can affect you.  since moving into my new room, and spending some much-needed time away from some people who i love, but who have been making me kind of unhappy lately, my mood and general outlook on life has done almost a complete 180 (...that's right isn't it?  or is it 360?  i never know).  I love, love, love my room and my roomies (there are four of them) - we actually hang out and are friends and they clean their shit up and they don't hate me and it's just such a blessing.

along the same lines, I'm not quitting phi mu next year.  every day that decision becomes more and more clearly the exact right one. 

speaking of phi mu, I got assistant membership director, which basically means I'm in charge of getting new girls this semester.  i'm really excited about it, despite what a kind-of big job it is.

I also joined band again.  go figure.

oh and I got a new job.  it's a university job in food service (and coffee, which is fun), which i said i would never do, but it's some extra hours that involve working w/ some friends and not very many hours, so it works well.

so basically my life has picked up major since i got back to school.  it's had its ups and downs already, and it involves 6 days a week of early mornings, but i think i like it.  give it a few more weeks and i'll have a much more official report.

hope everyone's having a good semester so far!
