happy new years?

I apologize for not writing in such a long time, but who's checking this blog now-a-days anyway? So nothing much has been going on since last time. I went on a couple of interviews --all of which were a little weird, but I mean it's hard to talk to someone who knows so much about you, and you hardly know anything about them. Sometimes they are rude, sometimes they are nice, sometimes they are pretending to be rude but are really rooting for you, sometimes they are pretending to be nice and are really going against you.

You know -- this whole process kind of sucks. And it's drained a lot out of me, and I've sort of taken that out on the people around me. So I really, seriously, apologize if I've been rude or short-tempered. But I'll tell you one thing I've learned in this whole process -- it's hard to know when people are really being honest with you. I mean I guess that's something that I've struggled with a lot in my life anyway, but maybe I'm just naive. I'm not really sure.

But the good news -- I'm at home now for Spring Break after a rough past 2 weeks at school, which culminated in me punching a wall because of stress (don't ask) and going through a phase of listening to late 80s to early 90s post-punk/lo-fi type music (i.e. bucket loads of Pavement, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Beat Happening and the like vs. my previous phase of late 80s/early 90s Hip Hop, which I have been slowly returning to). This was good, since I really needed to catch up on the alt rock I could I have been listening to in my youth --I've been vainly trying to do so by listening to 'Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain' and 'Sister' like a bajillion times... each! But ah, well! It doesn't matter.

Anyway, I'll do some more writing tomorrow, and tell you what I don't miss about being at home...
