So I met with 3 girls last night that I have had VERY minimal contact since junior high, but we were all the best of friends in junior high.  It was a lot of fun actually.  I semi-expected it to be really akward and scary since we don't really know each other very well anymore, but it was interesting to see that we are still the same people, just a little less amplified than when we were 14.  One of them is getting married, one is graduating from University this year, one is going into med school, and than there's me.... the slacker?  I don't know.  I felt a little less successful than most of them, but I am ok with myself, I know my goals and my experience, so it's fine.  I know what I want to do, and if anything, it's motivating to see people succeed and know I can do the same. 

I am bored at work today, it is a slow day for me, for some reason.  Yesterday I was busy most of the day, it makes the day go a lot faster. I am not feeling myself today, and I know why. 

I have begun reading "Bram Soker's 'Dracula'" and am thoroughly enjoying it so far.  It's very creepy!  I like the old school horror of it, because it doesn't just use violence and gore to scare you, it's main choice of scare tactic is through description, which terrifies on a completely different level.  To have the sensation of "trapped uncertainty" presented in such a way is delightfully horrifying to the imagination.  Although, you'd think by age 21, that I would be able to read a scary book and not dream about vampires, but no such luck.  Ah well, it is worth it.  Yay for the classics!
