the beginning of the new old me.

Today is the first day of the rest of my life.

I woke up this morning feeling the same I do most every morning lately… tired. I haven’t had that spark in my life… the one that makes me want to get up and experience the day. I’ve been bored out of my mind recently, and as much as I would like to blame my location and lack of friends I currently have close to me, there is no one to blame but me.

So just a few moments ago I decided enough was enough. I don’t have to have people around me in order to do things. I am resourceful and can be on my own.

It’s funny, just last year I wouldn’t have minded that I don’t really have anyone to spend time with. Oh, how the times have changed.

I want to go back to those days. The days I didn’t have to have someone else with me in order to go places or do things. That’s a big part of who I was, and I don’t want to lose all of the old me.

So, since I am bored out of my mind, and I have another few weeks until I move back to Louisville, I figured I’d take full advantage of that me time… Lord knows when I’ll get it again.

I guess I’m on a path of self-discovery. My plan is to learn new things about myself. Things I never really tried before just because I was always busy with something else.

I figure this will help the remaining part of my summer not suck as badly. Who knows though, maybe everything I try I will hate. I hope not.

The only issue is the lack of funds I have to support this adventure. So I’m going to have to come up with free things to do.

First on my list - See if I actually enjoy running. I’ve always assumed I’d hate it, but I hear it can be therapeutic. And plus, I’d be a way to get some alone time when I get back to the daily grind.

Wish me luck! xoxo
