I think I friended you back when you first moved here. You posted something to the Tucson group and then I saw in your journal you were complaining about living here :P I guess I figured I could help, or at least defend my beloved city. ;)

You don't have to apologize, I was just pointing out that you are shooting yourself in the foot. You said you didn't respond because you didn't know me...weeeeell you won't make friends of strangers if you don't talk to them. ;) Assuming you are using that philosophy in real life as well.

I work full time and I'm taking 15 credits (I wrangled 18 last semester) and I still find time to volunteer, be active in clubs and cultivate friendships and a relationship. But these things are worth the time and energy...because they are the things that make life enjoyable. It seems odd that doing more could make you feel more energized. But if don't do them because work and school are draining you, you just feel more drained, because all you do is work and go to school.

Tucson is a much better town for the 21 and over crowd, but there are still some good things for younger folks. Art openings are a blast and they rarely check ID >.>
