A boring post

I hate doing these "newsy" updating posts. I feel like they are so boring so I will try to keep it brief. There is a new boyfriend. I probably won't write about him much because I feel like he probably doesn't want his life to be broadcast on internet and since my life now intersects with his and my life is sometimes posted here, that aspect will mostly be left out. I'm excited about this new prospect, as most people are when they start dating someone new. I never started a blog before because I was dating a guy that was very a private person and I didn't want to run the risk of posting something that he wouldn't want to rest of the world to know since our lives were so interconnected. I am worried about that a little bit now so as I said, I am probably going to avoid that subject all together whenever possible. I met my neighbors across the hall. They are two boys from the conservatory. So far, I really like them a lot! They are tons of fun. I get along with and feel comfortable with both of them and all of their friends, so far. They remind me of the people I was friends with throughout middle school and high school. I enjoy them. I went to their apartment to watch the big football game on Saturday night. I met a lot of really fun people from the Con. I felt very comfortable there, as though I'm not socially awkward. Then last night they invited the roommate and I over to watch a very interesting movie. I worked on a poster project while watching the movie so I didn't get the full effect of it, but I still really enjoyed it. It was one of those movies that makes you take a step back and take a good, hard look at life and the process of growing up. I am so sheltered. As much as I'd like to think I'm not, I truly am. The characters in the movie did and saw things that I have never in my 21 years even thought about. It was scary to think how true to life this movie could be for some kids. By the way the title of the movie is Kids I recommend seeing it, but not when you've been drinking because it will definitely put you in a depressed mood that is tough to get out of due to the intoxication. That reminds me. Last night was my big F-You to AlcoholEDU...something I had to complete for my sorority. I drank while putting together a poster presentation that was due the next morning. I got an A on it so I was satisfied. It's not the kind of thing I'll do again. I just wanted to "stick it to the man" in my own little way. If this had been a serious project that I was worried about, I would have never drank while doing it. That was my brush with alcoholism...drinking on a Monday night while doing homework. At least I wasn't drinking alone. Anyway, enough on that subject. I had dinner with a great friend tonight. I'm glad that I know her. She offers such great perspective on any thing I have going on in my life. She is incredibly sweet and caring. I hope after she graduates this year we can remain in contact. I promised to keep this short so I will end this now.
