Time to review time to, to be with my own energy

I have a blog? Oh yeah, I do. Well then, I guess it's about that time to reconnect with the world of blogging though, my life isn't like it was a year ago. Ya know, the whole reason for starting this blog was to document my time traveling around the country while participating in service work for 10 months with a team of 12. I figured I may as well keep going with the blog thing for now by updating the world about my post-Amerilife and present-Grad school life. My ultimate goal is to eventually lead the direction of this blog into something more than just the life of a young graduate student. I was thinking maybe relating it to the field of social work, or in community outreach, organizing, development sort of deal (since that is ultimately what I want to do in the future). Or perhaps a blog of just "rants and raves of a young aspiring social worker about everything and nothing". Suggestions? Thoughts? I'm also looking for a layout change. Anyone know of a good, easy to follow site to assist me in a blog make over?

Anyway, as I promised before, till I come up with whatever this blog will be about, here's an update on my life:

- Currently, I am sitting in the library which has become my Tuesday afternoon hangout. I'm usually here with a few textbooks, my laptop, and some kind of caffeinated beverage.

- After the infamous road trip came the infamous trip to Ocean City, Maryland. (With an old friend's wedding thrown in the middle).

- After that came graduate school orientation, purchasing $500 worth of school books related to social welfare, policy, health, the practice of social work, and research, and a parking pass.

- Then the start of classes and internship... Which basically sums up my life as of this current moment. (Three more semesters left!) (In between that consisted of a Mets game, a day spent with fellow Ameri-Long Islanders, and finding out one of my best friends from college got engaged).

Fortunately I will be jumping back on the travel bandwagon (which I have missed dearly) getting my ass out of this dreaded island that is long. This upcoming weekend is a trip to good old Towson University for a reunion and the following weekend I'll be heading to North Carolina with a friend to visit his brother. My friend says his bro lives near the mountains so there maybe hiking involved. Sweeet!

The weekend after that won't involve traveling out of the state but it'll involve heading into the city to see John Butler Trio open up for Dave Matthews Band. (You should check John Butler out, just sayin').

Now that I've ran out of updates I guess I should get back to compiling my research midterm outline...
