Life in the Minne-Apple

So, I'm a black college graduate hailing from the great state of Arkansas. I have a biology background and am gainfully employed in an industry that does not utilize any of that training. I'm currently putting together a plan to eventually utilize these talents within my corporation, so we'll see how it all works out. That was a simple overview to bring the audience up to speed, but here's what's going on in the life of our young hero in the Minne-Apple:

I currently reside in downtown Minneapolis, merely a 7 minute walk from my bedroom to my desk at my place employment. This is an interesting parallel to how I feel about being in this city, my main purpose is to work. I really enjoy my job and several of the relationships that I have forged while in this city, but I still find an emptiness. I've attempted to fill this emptiness with partying, but if you actually know me, you'd know that I absolutely hate partying. Lately, I've refused to partake in that scene and am actually looking to add people to my circle that find joy in some of the things that interest me.

I feel that moving to Minneapolis has truly made me appreciate my true friends (most of which reside at least a plane ride away). I'm currently working on a self-improvement plan (of which maintaining this blog is part). Subsequent blogs will update the reader on my day to day experience, including goals, accomplishments, & and failures. I hope that this blog will be therapeutic and/ or helpful in some fashion. Peace until next time.....

    you should try to find orgs or clubs or places where you can do the things you like outside of work. you will meet people there with common interests and maybe things will get better
