Progress and Being Away From Home · 8:48pm Sep 25th, 2015
You know, in my head, things usually flow a lot better. But, I'm guessing that's the standard for like 90% of the planet. Literally a month plus days ago, I finally made the relatively short move from San Antonio to Austin once I got accepted as a transfer student to UT. First off, the campus is amazing, the city is bustling, there's so much to do, and I cannot believe I actually made it, but with all that came to hard-hitting reality that I am actually away from family. It really didn't hit me until I realized how quiet and peaceful it is nearly all the time in my new apartment. I was constantly surrounded by chaos, I basically need it to function. For the first time ever, I watched the VMAS alone without my little siblings rolling their eyes at me whenever I cheered when my favorite artist would win or commenting on the insanity of the show along with me, and there would've been a lot for the four of us to rip on and laugh at. I guess it just gets stranger and weirder with every step further into "adulthood" I make. I mean, I came into the fandom back in high school. Now, I'm a sophomore in college already drawing backup plans for other schools in case I don't make it into the nursing school here, and that in itself is a stress causer already, and thinking of future plans for whatever the hell might come after graduation. It's scary, but at the same time exciting. Guess I'm just slowly becoming a nervous wreck again now that the test cycle has begun again, and the 1 in 5 shot I found out I have at getting in. One way or another, the future is coming, and I am only slightly prepared.
Rolling along, getting everything ready for moving and getting settled into a new city and getting back into the school cycle was not a walk in the park, and my writing did suffer. TBATS's next chapter is really only two scenes away from being done, and I might post a little sneak peek once I finish the second to last scene, and have the chapter done before I head up to Arlington with my friend for The 1989 World Tour. (It's gonna be EPIIIIIC!) Ironically, this chapter's gonna involve Stardust finally moving out. Yeah, all those mentions about saving up for the move are actually gonna add up to something. Also coming along with that, Blue's party will probably be the next or second next chapter after that, and boy do I have something for that.
Welp, before I head to work, I'm gonna leave with this little bit of sibling love.
Family!
Family! (You see the running theme here)

Yeah, that's needing some work as soon as I get Blue's party done.
