Don't fret, my blog, I haven't forgotten about you.
I'm still figuring out how my time is to be best managed for this fall and spring semester. In addition, I'm working out the purpose of this blog and the goal I have for it. As of now It's merely serving as a blabber space...

Constant Flux
As with any semester, one must dedicate nearly all available time to organize, prioritize, schedule and reschedule their thoughts, classes, ideas and goals for the semester. I'm hoping that the chance to write this short thought indicates that this preliminary component to the semester is coming to a close.
The next few months will be trying in many senses of the word. As with my general tendencies there is no lack of projects, goals and aspirations to keep me busy for the semester. I feel that enough mental padding has provided me the essential preparation for exorbitant amounts of mental hard-labor over the next two semesters.
This coming week marks the "official" beginning to a new project through the form of an two semester internship and a capstone course based off of the project. Although for some it may seem like a minor moment, I felt a slight sensation of enlightenment when I came to the realization that a quality notebook would be a vital asset for the project. Having this realization served to further solidify the personal importance of the project and the potential growth that will inevitably come from the experiences that lie within. I spent some time carousing a small stationary store in Port Jefferson the other day and came upon a handmade Italian notebook made from recycled paper... Not to mention, the store was closing, not on account of an ill financial situation, but rather because the owner was pursuing nursing school, and so the store was having a "Going out of business" sale! Now prepped with notebook in hand, the internship is ready to begin.
I'll hopefully find the time to continue with more updates on broader topics than the "first week of school" in the coming weeks.
