Hullo!

Apparently I haven't dropped by since 2006, which is a really long time. Not much has happened since, save that a month ago I broke up with Mr M (as I seem to have named him; going through my old posts was very strange, it brought back a lot of memories). The breakup was mutual at first, but a week later he was ready to try again, and I was not. Many comings and goings later, we are not together because of me (meaning I rejected his entreaties for continuance, to put it archly).
However much I could talk about this subject, I feel like starting over, or at least attempting to. I'm returning to my old addictive habits (mainly on the computer, lots and lots and LOTS of solitaire), and I want to at least do something, create something. So here I am again. Practically everything that is going on in my mind has to do with him, and me, and why everything turned out this way. But I'll try to steer away from the subject, or at the very least approach tangentially, so that in case anyone is reading, they/you are not bored to their/your death.

Other things have begun to develop as well; if I'm not mistaken I started this blog on my second college year, and now I'm slowly approaching the end of the fourth. Midterms and exams have not yet consumed me entirely (and there's only one year to go before I can put studying on a hiatus while exploring the joys (?) of a nine-to-five job), and only a week ago I began teaching, my very first shot at both teaching and working.

I plan on beginning tango lessons in a couple of weeks, and that should be interesting to report (especially due to the 80% probability of embarrasing falls provoked by the 7 cm heels I'll be forced to wear!).

And right now, that's all I can think of. Sounds terribly sad to have spent two years and return with only that to show for it, but I think I'm being melancholic. I'm sure I'll remember the nicer, non-Mr M-related stuff with time.

Meanwhile, I leave you with a very funny if bittersweet tune for me (He sent me the link), and with the promise to return (tonight, for example) with a more upbeat perspective and some sort of talking point.
