Been almost a month since my last update. I've been working a lot during the week, and relaxing on the weekend just playing Halo 4/Borderlands 2. Both are addictive games. I do BL2 mostly when my friends are online. It's fun doing co-op with friends I grew up with/got tight with over the last few years. Which isn't to say I don't mind going against a few of em on Halo 4. I still need to finish the campaign of it. Hell, I basically have to start it.
Added three more courses to my class load for the spring semester. Didn't want to, but I couldn't find a solid job to pay for it. So I decided to go full time and tap the GI Bill. I'm taking Calc 1, 2 programming classes, and two intro CS classes. One focuses in on computers themselves, and the other Unix. I'm looking forward to the programming classes and the Unix one. The basic into to computers class should be easy and I am not quite dreading calc. I could tap a few friends for help, all of em math folks.
A former friend just won't let go. Doesn't seem to understand I no longer want to be friends with him. It's rather pitiful from my end watching him try to provoke a response. Funny, too, in that shadenfruede way. Of course, he's dating someone who I'd like to remain friends with. And her roommate is someone I'd not mind dating, or at least being better friends with. But that there is a whole nother matter entirely. One I'm just going to leave alone.
Why? Laziness mainly. I've become jaded and cynical and bitter enough to believe that people are not worth the effort, most times. Add in selfishness to an extent. I don't mind helping people out, but I won't go out of my way for them. I used to want to be someone who others thought were awesome. Now I just want to be someone who I can think of, in full confidence, as being awesome. Ya know, when ya look in the mirror and like what ya see?
Ehhhh. Some people will understand, and fuck those that don't.
Probably going down to North Carolina in the near future to visit a buddy. He's swinging by after deployment for leave. We've got a lot of friends down there, so it'll be good to see em all again. I'm probably going to California sometime next year as well. Holiday gift from another buddy. Was suppposed to go, but that fell through. Another friend will be in Maryland for a few months and I'll probably visit him as well. Probably around the same time as the NC trip. Lastly, a friend from Bama might be coming up sometime next year as well. Part of a bucket list for his mom. Sadly she's got emphysema. Awesome woman who raised an awesome friend. One of the few guys from the Army who I would gladly go out of my way for. One of the few good guys, by my definition. Far too few of em in the world.
Hope you're all doing well folks. Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, and all that.
