Sunday Prep Time

Just got done cleaning my room. I was trying really hard to get rid of stuff that I've been holding onto for years for the simple reason that they remind me of something specific. I'm trying to let go of those idols. I can write and I can develop a memory, but being a pack rat isn't very wise, at least, I don't personally find it to be a good idea. It's mostly just a waste of space. I have a much smaller room in this new place than I did before. breaking things down into necessity really helps me to relax.

I think I'm getting a paycheck tomorrow... which is a surprise! It will be the first of hopefully many professional paychecks to come. My financial plan is to develop a strong foundation and start investing after that. I figure that I've been living a sub-bohemian lifestyle for the past three-and-a-half years. I should be able to hold on a little longer. Honestly it is tempting though. I will soon have the capacity to buy all of these nice things, but I don't really need them. I need to remember to use my money wisely.

I do have a few priority purchases though. First off, I need to repay all my friends for the favors they have done for me. Secondly, I need to buy a few priority tools for work, and finally, I need some new cloths. I only own one pair of pants that don't have holes in them. I figure I should start looking more like a big-boy now that I'm about to graduate.

Speaking of graduation, I'm not really looking forward to it. I mean it doesn't really mean anything to me now. I would have been really engaged had it been in May with all of my friends around me, but now it's just... well... it's not the same. My parents and uncle will be coming up to see me though, so that will be nice. The last time anyone from my family was here was last year. It's not really their fault. I was the one who chose to go to college so far away.

Well, Heidi is here from High Point for the next few days for a business seminar, so we'll probably be hanging out. I should be getting some rest today, but I might go swimming instead... who knows. Either way I look at it, things are good and I fell good too, other than the random nausea I've been having for the past few days. Whatever. I'll deal with it. Peace and love.


Oh... almost forgot. I ran front of house for the first time at Midtown today without any supervision. It went really well, though I thought it sounded a bit muddy. I'll better develop my ears to that room though as time goes on. I need to get used to a sensitive graphic EQ.
