wow um okay
it's been like three years or something since i actually used gaia (i'm more of a twitter whore now). i came back the other day on a whim i guess and well it was cool cus i'd forgotten how super cute my avatar was/is. i've changed her attire and hair since i've been back, though. she was kinda like a super cool half-robot space explorer chick, and now she's more like an alien of some sort, idk. either way, playing with my avatar again after a few years was fun.
i ended up deleting a lot of people i had added as friends on this account, mostly because they either hadn't signed on in years or i didn't have a clue who they were at this point. with both of those in mind, there's really no point to keep them on my account. so now i have like eight friends or something. cool.
dustin wasn't on this account for some reason???
my profile was really gay??????
needless to say, it's been updated.
anyway, to be honest, i'm not really sure what i want to do on gaia now. i've been looming over the forums and posting occasionally to get some gold -- i had a good bit left here already, though. i was also lucky enough to get one of those random event gift basket things the other day (which got me another chunk of gold). other than posting in the forums and getting more cool stuff for my avatar though, gaia seems a bit boring. perhaps i'll try using it for the journal like my sister, but i doubt i'll actually keep up with it; i've never had a blog/journal that i didn't ditch in the end.
so how is my life currently???
pretty great. i've been living off-and-on in england nowadays, with my boyfriend. hopefully i'll get to move here soon. i much prefer it here to america, for a few reasons. it's wonderful to not be pointlessly attending college just to satisfy the adults in my life. i've learned that if you make life choices based on other people's wants and satisfaction, it only leads to misery. my family tends to have a habit of pretending my old life was super hella easy and great, though, so they don't really understand that little life lesson, at least not as far as i'm concerned. which is a shame, really.
at this point, i've come to a decision that i'd rather be happy than successful. and i don't give a s**t what anyone else thinks on that decision. this is the first time in my life that i feel like i'm actually living it and not just wasting it away on things that i hate doing and/or will mean nothing to me once i finish them. there's nothing i want from college. hell, i could never even decide on a major. and even if i did, it wouldn't be something i'd want to do the rest of my life. i'm not into the whole lifelong commitment career type thing -- i'd just get bored of it and eventually come to hate it. i much prefer the idea of a simple job that gives me a bit of money to spend, and the availability to leave whenever i feel the need to.
as of right now, though, i'm not a legal british citizen, so i can't even get that kind of job yet. still, being broke most of the time beats being miserable in school, or wherever makes you miserable!, by a long-shot.
that's enough life ranting.
it's nice to be back, gaia, at least for the time being. :- )
