I'm not into all that stuff. Not to sound elitist, but I look at how the guys my age act and it disgusts me. Women are referred to like a piece of meat. Not only that, most of the women allow it. As if it's the cool thing to do! A lot of them use drugs, drink like fish and make total fools of themselves doing so. I'm in Fairfield, we have two universities for such a small town, Fairfield U and Sacred Heart. Parties are rampant. There is a bar right by Penfield Reef. When I leave the reef, I see what quality time some of these people spend. Why bother go to college when you're killing just as many brain cells with liquor? Count me out.
I don't know. I'm pretty happy so far with this woman. She's a good woman. Who knows how far it will go. We seem to have that spark. Hard to explain. The long distance thing is hard but we have made it work for 10+ months. I figure that's a pretty good start.
That was highschool graduation. She is in college finishing up her dual major. She wants to teach the special needs kids. She only has a little more to do, then who knows what will happen. Maybe I will take some continuing education classes. Maybe take a career aptitude test to see what I'm good at. Then see where I'll go from there.
But the mainstream, normal, frat house, beer swilling scene isn't for me. I'm more of a live off campus, show up, do my work, go home, do my work and go fishing kind of guy.
