So much to say, so I'll get right down to it as it was.

Each day I'm steadily getting better. My step-fathers birthday is approaching which will, no doubt, be a hard day for me.

I've endured a lot this year; Death of three family members, my dog, and my guinea pig, I've been going to school nonstop with little times for breaks, trudging through said classes one day at a time... In just 4 months times, it'll have been a year. And despite my suffering and intense states of depression, of sleepless nights and frustrated mornings...

I've endured. I still have issues: Mostly, I'm horribly lonely but I'm hoping to make some friends nearby I can meetup with. My nursing class has been a wonderful addition to that; We're already planning monthly gatherings with my close-close friends. I still would like to know some furs in SoCal (I haven't gone out a lot to any meets or whatever; Frankly, I'm a bit intimidated as I can be fairly boring; No drinking or smoking for me.) Yet, I've been getting better.

But. There's a bright light at the end of the tunnel.

I graduate next week. Yup. Good times. Yay. Does it mean the end of school? Definitely not. but. I'm at least done with this long, arduous leg of my journey. A new chapter begins then, really.

I'll be attending RF with  icansee next month and look forward to seeing many people I know. I hope it's a great trip.

My mom and I are planning on going on a trip somewhere. We really next to get out.

And... I'm going to be getting my falconry license. I've been working on my own, using leather and material to practice making gear I'll need. I'm excited and this is something I've wanted for a long time. My dad and I were actually going to become apprentices together but... Well... He passed away. Since, I've been... Adamant about doing this. He told me after I graduated we'd go do it all together.

I'm attempting to keep a confident attitude on things and try and avoid things that tend to prey on my depression and make it worse.

I feel like I had much more to say before writing this, but I think.. I forgot. Oops.

Anyway. Take care, please don't be afraid to talk to me. I know I don't respond all the time, but I try to.

Wark.
