TECHNOLOGY IS AMAZING
...ly helpful for my dating life. If you haven't heard of facebook, it's a more streamlined, easier to use, and less annoying version of myspace that was originally only for college students, but now includes anyone with a valid e-mail address.
The great thing about this site is that people who go to your school are easy to find, and almost everyone lists their relationship status.
So. I've been doing REALLY well at my new resoloution to meet more girls. I struck up conversations with around 5 girls today that I'd never met. It's amazing how if you're standing around in silence: waiting for the elevator, waiting for the librarian... even just walking in the same direction, all it takes is a "hey, aren't you in my class?" or, if even you've got nothing to go off of, "hi, I don't think we've met, I'm Composer." and immediately the girl always perks up and becomes warm and bubbly and open. I've always feared starting conversations, but seriously, that's the easy part, I think they're just glad someone broke the silence (and the ice).
So, bringing this back, it's pretty easy to, once you know someone's name, look them up, see if they're in a relationship, and boom, no more worrying about whether to ask her out. Before you say it's creepy (cause let's face it, it kinda is), ALL guys (and plenty of girls) do it, I'm just using it to my advantage now that I'm meeting more people.
A few of the girls I met were in relationships, a few weren't, now I know which ones to just be friends with and which ones to try to pursue.
Stalking is AWESOME. :)

So, really, it was a great day. I came home after my first class and took a nap. I went to choir and got a compliment from the director for being the only person in my section who can sing (though I don't think I won any friends in that group, ha!), then went to my composition lesson that I'd been fretting about all week. Turned out my teacher loved the devolopment of the piece and he really inspired me to finish it, WHOO!! Top that off with a full day of meeting ladies, and a 4 mile run (I pussed out on the 5th mile, sorry EE!), and it was great.
Tomorrow I'm meeting with the education advisor to try to start a double masters program, and he's going to consider my music for a performance by the Wind Ensemble (he's also their director). I'm also going out for halloween costumes and dinner with my friends.
Add to all that - I just got a performance of my newest (and personal favorite) piece scheduled in early december by amazing world class performers, and my ex gf/friend is coming to town on Friday....
this is the happiest I've been since K. Healthy, spending time with friends, being productive (so important to me)... I think I'm finally really turning a corner.
