Settling into School

So I'm back at DePaul, and while I'm a little stressed from my classes, I am doing so much better!

It feels amazing to be reunited with my friends, and the freedom is beyond perfect. I'm done with classes for the week (Although I have hella homework to do over my long weekend) so tomorrow I'm going to spend the day as productively as possible. I'm going to go to the gym FOR THE FIRST TIME, clean up my room some (actually a lot), work on my mountain of homework, and so on. Tomorrow night I'm gonna see The Hateful Eight in 70mm so I'm excited! 

Today was really hectic, but overall it's been good and productive. I had my English class first thing in the morning, then had to run across town to this casting agency where I interviewed for an internship. The interview went really well, and I liked the people there and the setting a lot. I really hope I get the internship! 

When I got back to campus after what was basically FOREVER, I realized I had left my student ID in my room and had to go on a wild goose chase to find somebody in my building who could help me get it. Ordinarily, that would cost all kinds of money so I really lucked out here.

I have a date tonight as well, but to be honest I'm not really sure how I feel about it. Like the guy is really nice and funny and all that stuff, but I don't really feel emotionally ready for dating again. Last quarter was hellish in that manner. I just want to focus on myself, and frankly I'm WAY too busy right now what with writing, classes, possibly an internship, and trying to get my own film shit together to add a guy into the equation. Plus, I don't wanna miss time with my friends who ACTUALLY give a shit about me and are always going to be here for me. I'm not gonna blow this guy off or skip the date or anything, I think I'm just gonna tell him that I've got way too much going on to deal with any dating stuff right now and save him some of the trouble.

I'm in a good place, and even though it's a little hectic, it's okay by me.
