Random, long, & rambling late night post.

I really enjoy reading my own blog. I have no idea why. I really just enjoy remembering all sorts of memories that are stuck in the back of my mind, and this blog is like a metaphorical stick that helps poke and prod at those memories... Especially when I read back to the earlier posts I have on in here, of when I first moved to Sac (08-09), I just remember how random and fun college life was. Those early days in Sac where I didn't know my way around the city were fun. Now, come to think of it, I kind DO hope I end up moving to San Jose this August for grad school. It seems like a good fit for me, and I enjoy the campus and there trendy areas nearby. Plus, it's only a 45 min drive back to San Francisco for visits with my family... Meaning, I'm close enough to see family on the weekends while still maintaining enough distance to give myself that sense of freedom and "being-on-my-own"--ness. ANDDD there's also the fact that San Jose is a whole new city for me to explore. Well see what the next 11 days has to offer me, because from now until that day, I will make the final decision on where I'll be spending the next 2-3 years of my life as a graduate student... SFSU or SJSU... Both are great schools with their own pros and cons to each, and I'll be happy that I'm just earning my Master's degree at either one. Anyways, I'm gonna enjoy my next 4.5 months off from school, and possibly find a job, keep going to the gym everyday, and keep living it up while I'm still young. Anyway back to original reason I'm writing this post. I enjoy reading my older blog posts... It's a good diary that I've got going here. So many good and bad memories to reread. It's cool to also compare what I was writing about on this day in 2010, or 2009, or eventually 2008 when December comes around (when I started this blog). I wish I had started this web diary sooner (I remember keeping a years worth of blog posts on my old MySpace account... and I wish I hadn't deleted the account so I could somehow get those posts back). I think keeping this journal has been an efficient means of self-mediated therapy; an effective way to vent or write whatever I'm thinking/feeling/doing. I know the importance of having a means of expressing oneself from my psychology days at Sac State, and I'm glad that I have this... It's like a photo album, but with words... Anyways, I hope to hear back from SFSU this week or next at the latest, and I'm guessing there's a 70% chance I'll hear back by this Friday as to whether or not I'm offered admission into the I/O Program there. I can't wait. Oh plus, I'm planning a road trip this month to SLO, SB, LA, Walnut, La Habra Heights, and Riverside to visit friends and family. I'm guess I'll need about $350 for the 4-5 day excursion... I'm sure it'll be about $150 in gas expenses anyway. Well goodnight blog readers... Although, I'm pretty sure I'm just talking to myself nowadays. Chest and Tris tomorrow, pretty excited! Plus it's Tuesday, and you know what that means. CHICKEN. :| Haha. Plus I need to get that laundry done before 7pm. Alright going to bed now... Goodnight readers (me). :]
