there's been a lot of talk on happiness.
i had a very drawn out conversation the other night until about 4 am on topics such as happiness. I was giving advice to a friend and realized i always seem to be trying to help someone instead of myself.
i mentioned alot about pursuing things you want and achieving attainable goals instead of wallowing in self pity and being lazy. its funny because i consider myself a pretty happy person all the time, very easy going. but i think i allow myself to get stuck in a rut of work and school and sometimes let everything else like friends and relationships go by the way side.
and after lighting a fire under this friend's ass, i realized i need to follow what i'm giving others. i mean i know almost exactly what i want out of life, and i need to really get on how to realize those ambitions. i've been leaving too much to chance rather than being proactive.
it seems to be a long running theme in my life, being idle and neutral, but dammit i turn 23 in less than a week, and i don't want to waste any more time, i know i'm young, but you know there are some things i want to handle in the mean time, and the sooner the better. all the adult bullshit like family and career i think are ok to not have done now, but finishing school and travelling are some things i want to do more of. thank god for europe in 2 months, i can't fucking wait.
and for once i find myself infatuated, definitely going to work hard for this one, i know what i want so lets see if can get it.
