all my years have been amazing in some ways and completely dismal in others. i think this year has been the best so far. i have wonderful friends, a kickass support network, i'm graduating, and i don't really have a solid plan for my future but it's not bothering me as much as it should. shit maybe it's just the good weather that makes me feel happy.
Yeah, Holly will be living with me during the summer and then heading back to college at the end of August. I live in the Rainier Beach area. Yeah, not the nicest neighborhood, but it's easy access to a bus (stops in front of my neighbor's house), walking distance from the store and the japanese garden. First Hill is a good place to live if you have medical problems. Heart attack? You'll have a good dozen paramedics in front of your place in a matter of seconds. Of course, you're surrounded by hospital after hospital. AND it's next to Capitol Hill, largest GLBT community in the area. Not to mention fun. Fremont is amazing! Gonna take Holly to the Sunday Market and the Troll. I just wish they'd stop putting in all those new condos and shit. IT's going from Hippie to Yuppie. Depressing.
