relapse prevent, trigger intent now drown.

Well, I'm just going to do a short update entry. My new job got pushed back to June 10th instead of the 1st. Joey, my family friend/boss, is in New Orleans right now so we had to wait. Next Friday we're having a team building/leadership day to get to know everyone and then we "officially" start on Monday. I'm excited! (:

I've started roleplaying again! It feels so good to write again. It's taking awhile to get into the swing of things, but I finally feel at home again. It's like I always have an escape from reality. I can just dive nose-first into the world of Denbigh Psychiatric Hospital and all my worries go away. It's a fantastic feeling.

I changed my major for real. With the help of Ashley and Baron and talking out what I wanted to do with my life, I've finally decided (I think) on a double-major in Creative Writing and Communications, and then a minor in Arabic. When Ashley suggested this, it felt like something just clicked in my head. Plus, I've already taken 2 communication classes and I really liked them, so only 1 class I took last year will be thrown out the window. We'll see.

I e-mailed one of my roommates for next year and politely asked her if she would like to move out. I felt terrible, but I really want Amanda to live with me and Jordyn next year, and this was the only way to do it. She's going to leave, but at the same time, I still feel bad. I hope she didn't take it personally (I stressed the fact that it was nothing personal), but there's no good way to approach that. I made sure to tell her that Jordyn and I have had a really rough time dealing with housing, and we're so close to figuring things out and this is the only way to do it. Ah well. I mean, I tried to be cordial, nice, polite, non-threatening. I don't know how else I could've approached the situation. :/

Tomorrow I'm taking a huge step forward in my life. I'm going to a medical weight loss doctor on Grosse Ile for a consultation. He's Arabic and somehow related to me (he's probably like my 7th cousin, but still). I'm nervous, but very, very stoked. I think that I'm finally at a point in my life where I can lose weight for the right reasons and try and find something to commit to that I like and I know I can do it if I find the right thing. I'll keep you updated!

Until next time, Bloop!
