"Quiet people are well able to look after themselves" - Irish Proverb

I am in no way, shape or form a quiet individual. I enjoy my time with people, laughing, talking, enjoying. I enjoy my time at a party, or out on the porch, or out at the bar. I enjoy my time in groups and am quite the outgoing individual. Sometimes, though, I just need that quiet weekend - that time alone to just hang out with myself. There have been times in my life that I feel uncomfortable about that, and end up spending too much time just by myself because I then make myself feel like others do not want to be with me, when that is not the case, I only feel that way.

This weekend is one of those quiet ones for me. I dont want or need to go out. I just want to exist and relax, and be on my own - maybe a little time with others...but above all I just need a break. A serious life-break. Everything is just too overwhealming now.

I'm actually quite looking forward to next semester. Not because I'm that much closer to graduation, because I'm not 100% excited about it right now (probably soley because of the seriously variability that I've got going on), but because I feel like my classes and my schedule are going to be great for me. I'm taking interesting things, applicable things, and things that I enjoy. I'm quite looking forward to being seriously creative on a regular basis next semester with my art classes. I definately need to get back to that part of my life.
