Well i've been in my apartment for a little over two weeks now, and i have to say it's coming together nicely. I can finally LIVE here and not have to find ways to get around what i do not have. i need more artwork to put on my walls, but that will all come with time. I got a new job offer from the chef that taught me at the cafe. He's the sous chef at this place called JoJo out in Pittsford . Well, i took the job. It's only part time, and i'll be working 3-4 nights a week. probably 8 hour shifts. i know it seems like i have a lot on my plate already, but not really. i work at the cafe for a total of 4-5 hours 5 days a week, but most of the time i can get that stuff done faster. it's a no brainer! so then i have the rest of the day to myself. granted i do have rehearsals and such, but i could not pass this opportunity up. I'll be running the back kitchen there. It is a fine dining resturaunt. i mean, the front room looks like it's straight out of a classica 50's showroom, with the velvet booths, crystal and marble everywhere. i'm talkin creme de la creme!! So working the back kitchen consists of making all the desserts and cakes and such, plus cooking oysters and grilled sandwhiches, and anything else that gets thrown my way. So we'll see how this goes. Seems like a lot to do while i'm there, but eric says it's easy stuff and i'm gonna kick ass at it, and he knows how i cook, so i'll take his word for it. It's pretty exciting.
Lately i've been trying to work on myself. How i think, how i react to others. i've found that i really don't know myself as well as i thought i did. I'm not saying it's bad, but there are just a few suprises from here to there that i have noticed. So i'm reading several books to try and help me find my way. Hopefully i can see what i need to see and be on my way to a healthier life. We'll see what happens. it always takes time! So thank you to all of my friends and family who have been here for me lately and have taken the time to understand me and be there for me. I greatly appreciate it. God bless everyone, and may everyday be lived like it where the last!

Dude, that's sweet! Congrats. Maybe I'll bring the fam out there for some food sometime.
As far as knowing yourself, I have realized that it takes years to know yourself, and the more you do, the better you can live in harmony with yourself, God, and other people. Keep working at it; I know I have to!
He is right, it takes years to know yourself well but now you are on the right path to get there and that's a good reason to start smiling. Keep reading.
Did you say you need artwork? Hmmm... I'll do something about that ;-)
Congrats babe, keep your head up and keep pluggin, I'm glad you seem a lot happier and I'll have to come check out your place soon :-)~Sara~
Congratulations man! Rob and I have been meaning to stop out there some night anyway; we'll have twice the reason to do so now. I'm glad you are doing so well.
Never stress yourself out about knowing your 'true' self; you have to enjoy the learning process & to embrace change within you.
Holla at a sista some time- i'm right around the corner from you now (Rutgers).
