| maybe now that facebook sucks, people will return to xanga en mass.... | | |
| what do you do when you're highly disorganized, but life demands your full attention? see, the problem i have is that when i try to juggle lots of information, i end up prioritizing it and i forget the things that are less important than the things that have to be done right now. when i try to write things down, i lose whatever i wrote it on and start from square one again. this is bad because it applies to every aspect of my now confused life. day planners..i lose them. if i ask my mom, it's because i don't take my juice plus. if i ask my dad, it's because i don't have a blackberry phone/tool of world domination. if you ask me, it's because i can only focus on one thing at a time. people are wired differently. i just haven't figured out how i'm wired. | | |
| gone to colorado... was being kind of dramatic about the whole thing, but things have pretty much settled down. i'm just ready to get there. taking my ski jacket just in case...hoping for the best. don't know about internet or phone, but rustic is nice. i just want to ride the horses, that's all. i'm ready for cooler weather, high altitude, rugged terrain, and of course the stars at night. Books i'm taking are the classics: raise high the roofbeam carpenters and seymour: an introduction, the movivegoer, the sound and the fury, and the perks of being a wallflower. a friend has threatened to send me my antonia, and i would love for that threat to realize itself. this purse i'm taking is approximately the weight of 1 1/2 bowling balls. pray for me...about lugging that huge purse around, but also for a safe trip, and a learning experience. whether good or bad, i figure it's about time for one of those. | | |
| It's what I watch when I want to be pointlessly entertained for an hour...or two...or ten. Summer school has been a little bit rough. I mean, it seems like time has flown by, but this is the one part of the year that I need to slow down. Maybe that's a good thing, since Colorado is fast approaching and that's what I call summer...working as a baker at Crooked Creek, nestled peacefully in the crib of the Rockies. Some people get to camp and become totally different people, and I hope that doesn't happen to me. There are lots of things that have been tugging on my heart, but I just don't want to deal with them right now because I'm so busy with school and stressed about family. Hopefully God will give me the strength to rise above my desire to take one big break in Colorado, so that I can grow while I'm there. I've been sighing a lot lately, so I know I'm stressed out. It normally doesn't occur to me that I'm stressed until I literally get physically sick. It's one of my adoreable quirks... (I know I'm not allowed to say that). Anyway, it's great to be living here in Oxford with my grandparents and it's wierd to be writing on xanga since it's been a long while. There is a good chance that this summer will be a good one. Twenty is just around the corner, I'm a nursing major (which I think I'll actually stick with), and I'll be in Colorado for a whole month. I guess life is beginning to take turns that feel more significant, and I'm glad. Content and all that. | | |
| i'm at home.
ahhhh....sweet refuge.
my dad is out riding his bike and my mom is at a juice plus "health fair". my dad is riding his bike....which means i get to drive his car! i've already taken advantage of this brief window in time. i have been sleeping off and on...went to cups...just bumming around. the weather is beautiful and i am about to play jeopardy on PS2 with emily and michael. the big question is...what do i eat for lunch? chick-fil-a...which we don't have on oxford (the union doesn't count), stan's pizza, broadstreet, swensen's, haute pig, etc..... so many food options, so little time! name your favorite jackson restaurant and i'll try to work it into the schedule. | | |
