Soul Searching

Hey everyone! You may be wondering about my strange absence these last couple of days and I promise I have a good reason. Some big stuff happened in my life these last few days and I've been forced to do a little soul searching (by a little, I mean a lot). I've been debating the priorities in my life, what I care about and ultimately what matters the most to me. Not good that this week happens to be the week of my Japanese oral final :P. Oh well.

Cool story, today we had 4 hours late start (every wednesday we have late start and then we had 2 hours late start due to snow tacked on to that) so i wasn't even planning on going. However, a friend of mine wanted to hang out so I ended up walking 2 hours in the snow to get from my house to school. This was not a flat 2 hour walk either, it's pretty hilly around here. So anyway, as I walked, I realized how utterly peaceful it was. I didn't have a care in the world and it was spectacular. I felt so completely free from everything and I loved it. However, when asked why I even came to school, i honestly didn't have an answer. Why did I leave the comfort of my home and go on some epic trek just to be with a friend for a couple of hours? I'm not sure and honestly, i still don't have an answer as I write this... All I know is that school took a sudden dive in my priorities for my life. The people I care about have always been number 1 on my mental list but now they are even higher up than before. Before, when I hung around the people I cared about, it was because I needed support from my depression and while they didn't know it, they were acting as my solid pillar to keep me standing. But now, the roles have changed and it makes me a happier person overall. I actually wasn't planning on talking about this in my blog but it just kind of came out so thanks for reading (if you did :P).

Well, my video blog will be up today, i just have to wait for my camcorder to charge up (it can't even last long enough to import my final message to the comp :P). I still am gonna try and get it into 3 parts but i'm not sure if it's gonna work or not since I've only been able to get about 8 minutes of actual blog into each part so far (because I don't want to cut off in the middle of a game). Whatever, we'll see how things go. Peace everyone!
