Must. Revive. LiveJournal.
What is it with me and my long time between posts? Well from last year, quite a bit has happened. If you remember and all I had to leave my house due to the unsafe environment that stirred up. Since then I moved in with a friend's family in Pembroke and stayed with them until August. I was successful in getting into the University at Buffalo after not passing my last semester at G.C.C. due to the overwhelming stress and emotional toll (Dad's death the year prior did not help matters either). I had a brand new start in a brand new school, but the transition from nothing to a new place with no support outside of school aided in my decline! The fucking financial aid office here is completely useless, did not tell me things that needed to be changed with my account, and they did not get me my refund check until November opposed to after the first few weeks of school. Because of their asshattery I was out a computer until much later in the semester, so my mother had to go out and get another loan before that check came in but luckily I hadtuinte who came to my rescue and helped me through the entire process. But because of my lack of internets, I became lonelier because I didn't have any friends out here and didn't quite know how to vent (also due to me not being out here). I was also told by one of my professors (after reviewing my portfolio) that I am probably not going to get into the Communication Design program. So basically after these events and others I became horribly withdrawn and couldn't bring myself to go to classes. So your humble narrator failed his first semester completely with a 0.0 GPA. Thus ends my first semester.
This semester is different, although somewhat. I originally took 15 credit hours + 3 more from a magazine I joined that counts towards a level 300 English course. I dropped all but two and still continuing with Generation, but it's working out just fine even if I am down to part-time. Not as depressed as last semester, but it still bothers me that my mother has not sent me a package of any sorts and that the last time she came out and visited me was for my birthday. She hasn't kept her promise of depositing money in my account every month either, letting me drain my bank account almost completely to pay bills, buy food, and buy all my books. I'm no longer in that kinda/sorta/not really relationship that was developing. I still do care for him, but I also know that I was horribly naïve the whole way through.
My sister moved out of the house and is living in Lockport with her (awesome) boyfriend. She's pregnant and due in a few months, so I'm going to be an uncle for the first time soon! They're having a girl and naming her Ryann. I'm not too keen on the spelling but I love the name. I go and visit them once in a while since they only live about 30 minutes away from my dorm. I'm going to wrap it up here because we're off to the dining hall, but I guess this has just been another major learning and growing process for me. I love and miss all of you guys.
