    Yes, I'm still alive.

    Posted in Me

    Hello! I’ll bet you never expected to see this RSS feed light up again, did you?

    It appears as though I haven’t posted anything since “Corbin in the Closet”, which was several months ago.

    So, what’s new in my life since my last post? I’d better fill you in.

    My life has been extremely busy lately. I’ve been working as a Page at the Library since last August. It is a wonderful job, but it has become much busier since April, when my boss died and two of the four Pages left for various reasons. We replaced my boss and one of the Pages, but not the second Page. I’m going to be working five days a week until the school year starts up again and we hire a fourth Page.

    In May I finally took my driving test and passed it on the first try, despite the fact it was raining and the streets were flash flooding. I’m able to drive all by myself or with licensed drivers over 21 until August 6th, after which I can drive with anyone. (Yeah, it stinks. However, Indiana’s graduated driving requirements are rated among the highest in the nation. Better safe than sorry!)

    Last week, I was accepted at a local community college to take a couple of classes this fall. I took the placement test two days ago, and I aced through everything except for Math. I’m anticipating taking a Chemistry class at the very least, and most likely a computer-related class.

    On a note that is more minor to everyone except about three people, I bought myself another iBook. I had an old PowerBook that I used for school, but it died around the end of spring. The iBook has a broken CD drive, but I’ve ordered a replacement. At this rate, I’ll probably stick with used computers until I’m officially in college.

    I also bought myself a Nikon D40 DSLR camera in April. (For you non-geeky people, it’s basically a professional-grade camera.) I have used it quite a bit since then. I am now my church’s resident photographer, and I’ve also done a little bit of shooting at a few Library events as well. I’m hoping to get around to posting some of my better pictures sometime in the near future.

    Well, I don’t want to bore you anymore, so I’ll sign off! I hope that I can try to become more organized and breath some more life back into this blog. However, if I’m going to try to do that, I’d like to see more comments. It gets really discouraging when you write posts and have no clue whether or not anyone even cares to read them, so please, leave feedback!
