Many things change in the course of a year including my relationships, my place of residence, and my plans for the future. I have begun my first novel in earnest and with that endeavor has come the realization that writing a masterpiece and living off of its profits is all i really want in the way of earning a living. But many other eager freshmen feel the same way and tragically few writers actually get to be successful. Therefore, along with my journalism degree, i have decided to minor in political science and creative writing..Just in case i decide to sell my soul and become a lawyer or some sort of lobbyist.Two of my three closest friends are sharing an apartment with me this semester and i have to tell you, we are the hottest girls this apartment complex has ever seen. The boyfriend with an apartment is no longer the boyfriend, but we're still close. My other friend is far away in another land where the song "sweet home alabama" takes on a whole new meaning. My brother is sixteen now and close to being all grown-up. Sometimes he surprises me by making all grown-up decisions. A few people from high school have turned out to be closer friends when i got to college than i could have ever anticipated. I like to read science fiction/fantasy, write poems and stories, play soccer, and be around music- whether it is playing, downloading, or listening. Being in shape is important to me. Taking care of my body not only keeps me healthy but also lowers my anxiety and helps me focus. PIlates, and the zen garden are helpful...
