Time to Type

It's been a while...
It's been a long while...
It seems like yesterday...
While it seems it was eternity...
How life has changed...
How I've grown...
How I've cried...
How I am, what I am today...

...alive...

I supposed it has been a while since I've last left my imprint on the pages of this digital text, so I guess I need to account for where I have been. How long has it been? Quite a while, so I'll get down the chase, make it short, sweet, and to the point.

When this blog was started I was back in the days of depression. I had just been dumped (as some of the posting shows of the original text), for the first time ever, it was devestating. 2 years of a relationship, looking at maybe engagement, who knew...but it was great...however the key word is "was", for it no longer exist. The blog was an outlet, and things have changed since the creation of this blog. Many things, this site is over a year old now. I'm older, much I'm afraid...sitting at 22 as of two weeks ago. I've gained weight, I'm now sitting at 253 lbs. I have not grown anymore, I stand at 6'5.
I am a college graduate, I graduated from Southwest Baptist University May of this present year (2009). I ended with the two degrees I fought for:
Bachelor's of Science in Social Science Education
Bachelor's of Science in Political Science
I still run, a lot I'm afraid. I tack on at the least 10-15 miles a week. I know some cross country runner is rolling their eyes at that. I don't work out as much though, I just focus on running. It is peaceful, and relaxing.
I do not have a full time job. I work at Subway in Gower, Missouri still. I also have just put out applications for 9 school districts in the area as a substitute teacher. That ought to keep me busy for some time. It's money, the part that is lacking, probably the part that I miss the most is soccer. I've coached at a high school in the ozark area of Missouri for two years now. Both years were rough years, but I loved the action, and I loved being in the action. However, for this year, I believe it's going to have to be sat on the side. One of the schools I'm going to be subbing at though, does have a soccer team, and they could use some help, we'll see what time has for us.
That's all I've got for the moment...I'll send more later...
