I'm determined... Now that happiness no longer wriggles through my fingers, but rather is firmly caught in my grasph, my next aim is ambition. I applied to two places today (and remembered that I have to register for the draft...). Also, I plan on doing some work for the Daily Cow (wooh!). But, those are obvious responsibilities. Further off, I'd like to start forcing myself to learn some German (I bought some self-teaching software a long while ago), get back to work on poetry, and be creative in some other ways...
I need to get a better idea of what I want to do in college... when I should apply (it's LMC, so I feel I can be a little hesitant), where I should go after LMC, and how long I should stay at the colleges. I don't even know what's possible. But, given how life goes in crazy directions, I suppose anything's possible.
Valentine's Day... Spring Break... they're both closer than I had anticipated. I need a reply to my applications within this week, or I'll be pickin' pockets for money ><. And, even if I do get a job, I can't spend money the way I was when I was unemployed. (Even though I was conservative for the most part! Except when I was generous of course, heh)
This night. Hmm
Indescribable, yet only a precursor
I feel alive. I feel my place. I've felt...
I could actually see myself being content if 2005 lasted an eternity and I had to live day-by-day in school with no goal, only "preparation." School is worth the daily routine.
And I shall sleep.
