Life, Love, and the pursuit of Happiness

I haven’t had time for anything but work and school. I think it is taking a toll on my psyche. I’m unsure of a lot of things, and I’m between a rock and a hard place. All I want to do is sleep for a week. I need to recharge my batteries. My brain has stopped absorbing information and mostly rejects it. Which is unfortunate when you spend thousands on college.

Summer in a Nut Shell

• Loving the new Passion Pit Album Gossmer
• Loving Metrics new Album Synthetica
• Not so sure on Regina Spektors New album.
• Saw Fiona Apple and Death Cab for Cutie this Summer. They were rad.
• Apartment almost burnt down
• Three cats, a Love and I in a full bed at the parents = rough times.
• Got engaged to said Love *excited!!!!!* 
• Looking for a house.
• School starts tomorrow, University style.
• New job is terrifying but I think it’s going to be good.

A Step Back…

So after a small nervous break down,

and some wise words from my friends and family                                                  

I have decided not to pursue the Radiology Technician Program.                                

It took a lot of reflection,                                                                                

and I think the biggest thing I learned after a very failed semester,                        

is that you have to know when to walk away, and when to dive in.                          

This is a time in my life where I have to walk away,                                        

because like my father said, “You are going against your nature.”                                  

I am by no means a numbers person, or scientific person. The love of imaging has to be trumped by your love of patients.                                      

I think in hindsight I was approaching it from the wrong perspective.                      

Which I am okay with now.                                                                              

It’s funny how when you step back from your intense focus on one thing how the bigger picture sends you new avenues.                                                                

It’s a lot like wheel throwing, you get up close and personal with this piece but when you step back you see much more then just the pot.                                

I am going to focus on my art this summer and purchasing our first home, and start fresh in the Fall.                                                                                        

I just need to figure out the avenue I am on now. 

I do know with out a doubt, I am destined for something great. 

My brother said, ” You are an artist. BE an ARTIST.”

An Artist I will be.
