The tale of dreams I thought we all followed...

This time it's me on my own
finally free and I won't
give up my dreams for no one
or be a pawn of what they want me to

This time be sure they'll listen
to what I say, I'll mean it
with every single word
I'll make sure I am heard
So they won't have a doubt
of what I want to be

Amely - On My Own

***

Right there has been my motivation for the last little while. I've found that I've come to realize my own potential with the gifts that I have been given. Whatever it may be, I've been working to hone my skills to become the best I can be.

Hence why I have come back here.

So, as you might have noticed, I've sort of been on "hiatus" for a while. Sure, I've posted little things, but nothing of real, true, honest value - or so I've found. Anyways, here I am, ready to tell everyone what's been going on in my life as of late. Here goes:

..hold on, going to get ready for bed...

Alright, I'm back and ready to go. On your mark, get set, go!

I feel I've been in a race every since second semester started (like the connections, yeah, you know you do!). It seems that these past few months have been a subtle blur, but yet, I find I don't remember a whole lot of what has happened. I think that's probably the underlying reason why I haven't been here for "real" for a few months. I think I might have something, even though my psychology professor told me I shouldn't self-diagnose, and I know that everyone says they hate it when other people self-diagnose themselves. But let's be honest - you all do it. Maybe not consciously, but you all do it. I know, I've been there.

Backtrack. First semester a lot of shit happened that was neither foreseeable, and for the most part uncontrollable. Only a few people know about it, 'cause it's not something I want to make publicly known, for I felt a wrong was done to me. But if you really, truly want to know, ask me about it sometime.

Just not on here.

Fast forward. I've somewhat figured out my future. Or at least the controllable part of my future. As of April 6th, I am now a Psychology Major. Other possibilities include a Phys. Ed. Minor as well as an Environmental Studies Minor. There's also the possibility of one-upping my general Psych Major to an Honours Major.

Then there's also the option of immigrating to Africa to live among the villages to learn to Xhosa language.

Yes, that language is legit.

Back to the present. So as I said earlier, I've been working to hone my skills in certain areas of my life. And this is true. If it wasn't true, I wouldn't have said it. Which brings me to my next point...

Racism is the next prejudice!

No, but really. I'm following in T-Rex's footsteps. Or dinosteps. Or awkwardlylookingfeetthingsteps.

However you want to put it. It is the 21st century after all.

Anyways, back to the real stuff. I've got some summer plans laid out. Mostly work related of course. I'll be landscaping. I'm quite looking forward to being outside all summer, or at least I will be. I have a feeling come August, I'll want nothing more than an inside AC lazy-ass type job. We'll have to see about that though.

Other summer plans include swimming, beating Super Mario Bros 3 without using the warp zones, and for that matter, finding a NES system on Ebay to have in my room for next school year. Yes, that will be awesome, I know. You are all jealous. Also, camping, staying in shape, and road-trips are all possible events to fill the agenda.

I'm sure I'll figure something out. I mean, I do have 4 months now.

***

Alright. Now to get to the true point of this post. Actually, there really isn't a true point, more just I felt compelled to come back here for reasons I can't actually explain. I think.

Anyways, as some people might have noticed, or failed to notice, I have a little surprise for some people. Meaning a surprise for all people. So yes, that includes all you.

Let's just say this little surprise came into full swing about 3 weeks ago. I had original plans to undertake this surprise when I had a little more time of my own. But by the grace of God, I was made an offer to have it undertaken for me. Aren't I just lucky.

Here's a little hint: the surprise has something to do with me honing the skills I've been given over the past 7 and a half months.

Guesses are welcome, but I'm not saying anything.

Well. This brings me to the end. It's now bedtime for me.

Sleep will feel so good right now.

Yes, yes it does.
