Ryan Version 7.0

It's not long until I'm at law school. I'm excited and scared and I don't know what to expect at all. Will I sink or will I float?

I think this is a good time to change myself. I think I need to do something different and stop wasting time feeling sorry for myself and changing things. I feel like I'm becoming a new person. From what I can deduce I have had six previous incarnations:

1. Birth to 5th Grade (10 Years)
2. 5th and 6th Grade (2 Years)
3. Junior High and all its hellishness (2 Years)
4. High School (4 Years)
5. College (4 Years)
6. Post-College & Work (4 Years)

Each period has been defined by certain normal events but more importantly they are characterized by attitudes and actions. Also in each period I have had very different friendships and only a couple people have transcended more than one. I think this is a new phase in my life and hopefully it will be a phase of enlightenment and self-esteem. I hope that my friends pass through onto this phase but inevitably some will be left behind. I can already feel them fading away from me, and it's not because of anyone's fault, but because of a natural progression of life.

So, here I am. Becoming who I am. Emerging from a cocoon. Ryan Version 7.0.
