It’s been a long-ass time, Xanga.

 

Looks like January 4th was my last “real” entry, and there’s only been a few since.

So where are we now?

Well I started interning at WSCR the Score, Sportsradio 670 two weeks ago. Thus far I love it. Granted I don’t have many responsibilities, but it’s a great experience just being there, being able to network and spend time at a real radio station. For the first time I really feel like my life is progressing.

I also quit my job at The UPS Store after almost 3 years of working there. In less than a week, I went from working a very blue collar job on the northwest side at a one-story flattop roof strip mall to the 6th floor of a downtown skyscraper. I still haven’t completely gotten over the shock of the change. I still work my “studio time” job at Columbia. It doesn’t pay much, but it involves so little work, and zero stress, something that was abundant for me at tUPSs.

I went to the doctor on January 20th, and was put on antidepressants. I had fought off the idea of going on meds for over a year and a half, but I realized that I wasn’t going to merely think myself out of my haze. It is easily one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. I had a massive serotonin imbalance and it’s mostly corrected now. In addition my doctor stressed the need for weight loss, something else I was very aware of but hadn’t done much about. Thanks mostly to portion controls and consistency, I think I’ve succeeded fairly well. I’ve lost 27 pounds since then, and if one were to factor in what I lost last summer, I’ve lost 39 since graduating high school.

Still missing the special someone on the personal side, but… not nearly as upset at this fact as I once was. I take this as a good sign.

I’m going to try and update this a little more frequently, but we all know that’s rather unlikely.

Softball tonight.

Life is about change.
