I feel like it is necessary at this point to catch people up
in the world of Erica Kriner. There have been a few major developments since I
last posted and I think it’s time to dust off this old blog and continue on
with my story on the sole narcissistic belief that someone out there actually
cares. So let’s go through the basics:
- My love life has changed a little bit since we last spoke. Previous Boyfriend who I wrote about and I broke up – it was a pretty uneventful thing. We’re still on good terms. Now, I’m with Current Love Interest who will probably be my boyfriend here soon, and who is wildly different from the former, but it’s really exciting and amazing and he makes me very happy.
- I am in Arkansas for the time being, and will not be back in Philly until spring semester. I’m a bit bored, but that has recently been made a little easier to bear with the aforementioned, as well as…
- My new writing endeavors! Not only did I start my own website where I do reviews and talk about social issues and politics (http://culturalettes.com), but I also was selected to become an actual contributor to an actual magazine! So if you ever want to read writing that I put a lot more time and effort into than my personal blog, check out one of my articles of The Odyssey Online, which I will begin posting here when they are published!
In other news, I turn 20 years old in a little over two
days. This is a big deal for me, as I will officially be entering my third
decade of life! So much happened in my second decade – I wonder if I can outdo
myself this time around. I’ll need to write another novel – that’s for sure. I’ll
need to accomplish some stuff on my bucket list. It’s so daunting! How
different will my life be when I’m about to turn 30?
Tatiana seems to think turning 20 is a boring age, but to
me, this is a huge development. I feel like 20 is the first year I will be
taken seriously as an adult, which is super exciting. (I guess I should stop
crying at Disney movies and maybe stop building pillow forts in my free time.
Oops.)
Also, as one of my first Adult Goals on turning 20, I plan
on being much more active in all my blogging spheres. That means more personal
blogs, more writing on The Culturalettes, and of course – keeping up with The
Odyssey.
Basically, my life is going pretty okay as of right now, and
despite a lot of problems that I’ve faced this past year or so, a lot of good
things have happened, too.
