Takin' Control

I decided to take control.

I am meeting with a lawyer today to get the contract written up so we can get a co-signer. There is still the issue of not having any apartments still available, but I'm sure it'll work itself out.

I have enough money in my bank account for me to survive to the next paycheck, and I might even be able to pay my cellphone bill.

Now I have to get ready for the fall semester. Talking to Julie and Laura yesterday I know how to prepare. I have to go shopping. I know, it sucks, but it must be done.

And if I organize my crap in my room, send stuff home that I don't need, I'll be a happier person.

I thought of all this while I was out on Whitewater Lake yesterday. I freed myself. I had fun. I took pictures. It was great. I took off work. I didn't get back until about 11:30 and then hung out with my friends that I had left back on campus. Sometimes, it's good to be home.

But, I have decided, next summer will not be spent in Beloit. I love it, but I need to get away for a summer. I'm excited about where I might be headed, but that is a ways off.
