[Lea appears on the network, leaning on the balcony railing of his apartment and thoughtfully eating an ice cream bar.]
You know, it occurs to me that as of today, I've been here for a whole year. Man, time flies.
Weird as it is, this place kinda helped me grow up. I had to get a job, learn to pay rent, generally act like some semblance of a responsible adult for the first time in my life. And in the process had more than a few of those mildly disturbing moments where you realize that all the adults you looked up to as a kid, who seemed to have it all together and know what was going on, were probably just as out of their depth as you are now about a lot of things, and were basically making it up as they went along.
And I've made some really good friends here. Most of them seem to be women too, which I never would have predicted; I mean, before here, I hadn't really had much reason or opportunity to really talk to women my age, so it's just surprising, I guess how many lady friends I've got. Not like romantic type lady friends, but just friends who are ladies, so there's no confusion.
So yeah... all in all, not a bad year, all things considered.

So here's to another one, or however long I'm here after this. Stay crazy, Genessia.
