origami, and distraction
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams.
So I've been folding a lot of origami recently, and I would like to get better. But it's one of those things that takes a lot of effort, or at least practice, to improve upon. I don't know if I want to become like an origami freak, but it may already be too late. This week I've done two spiral sea shells, two icosahedrons (20 triangles in a Platonic solid), and some rotating tetrahedrons that I can't figure out how to rotate. =P oh well. Pictures of them are on facebook.
Apparently a certain person feels like I'm going on too many trips out this term (lloyd ski trip two weeks from now, ccf retreat now, ooc retreat two weeks hence, and yosemite ski trip (maybe) with bbc four weeks from now) and are generally worried about me. I wonder who it could be - I have theories, but I won't expound on them. I tend to agree that I'm still too busy, and I'm not even taking care of all of my responsibilities (there is that lab I'm technically committed to. hmmmmm. *sigh*). However, I think that most of the things I'm doing daily are worthwhile. It's always a hard balance, trying to stay on top of everything. It doesn't hurt that my schedule is lighter this term. It also doesn't hurt that I don't care about getting perfects on every homework.
It does hurt that I get distracted about silly things. Like Smash. And girls. And Smash. And girls. And writing in these silly blogs.
