Spring semester...here I come!

Well, it's that time of year...the second half of the 2009-2010 academic year. I have 15 credit hours and a part-time job, and hopefully I'll be able to handle joining a club this semester as well. I'm excited to get business calculus over and done with...but I'm still waiting for my most important textbook - the one that goes with my managerial accounting class. Wtf mate?! He didn't even post the required text until this past Wednesday. Oh yeah, gives me enough time to order the book and get it prior to the first day of class...NOT!

Prediction for February: Vikings vs. Colts for the Superbowl!!!!

New year, new....relationship?

How do you know when you're ready to move on? How do you know you can handle a new relationship?

It's been almost seven months since my last relationship ended...ten months since I've actually seen me ex. I feel like I should be ready to begin anew, but I feel hesitant. I'm interested, but not sure I can safely take that next step. He's a great guy, but do I have the capacity to give him what he needs? Can I be the girlfriend and not just the girl friend?

It's almost as if I'm afraid to put myself out there. This guy, he seems like a great person and so far has been an amazing friend. He drew me into a hug when I first shared some of my problems that came from my last relationship - just because. Because he could hear my voice drop and he could see that I was still really hurting.

I don't cry myself to sleep as often as I used to, but I want to be able to give myself time to heal. I've made extraordinary progress, but is it enough?
