How about that?


Still Talkin.


Ninety-One


Saturday Night Football??

Rested. Learning. Working. Challenged. Drug-Free.

I have been quiet for a few weeks, focusing on my priorities. The break has been helpful to catch up with school and live a few steps back from the brink of exhaustion.

This stretch, the next three months carry me through the holidays and into the New Year. I have been thinking daily about what decision to make about drinking. I have not had a sip of alcohol since August 6th. The question before me has been "How do I find balance?". I will make my final decision on Tuesday. To drink in moderation, or not?

I have been lonely today. I did homework all morning and afternoon. Tonight I watched the University of Southern California football game (I grew up in Los Angeles). To fight loneliness and boredom, I took some pictures to share with you.

The day after Thanksgiving, I will be attending my 10 year high school reunion in Los Angeles. I am looking forward to it. I am looking forward to being me. I am proud of who I am. I am proud of the decision I made on July 25th. I am proud of my acheivements, especially in the past three months.

People are still using crystal meth tonight. Someone will contract HIV tonight. Someone will kill himself tonight. Someone will cry himself to sleep tonight.

That person is not me.
