Time is going by so quickly (no matter what you say, Unchained Melody!) and I feel like I have to do something big. Something that will make a difference. I graduate from COLLEGE in two years. Two. That's nothing. I love normalcy, whatever that is, but I don't want to sink into that everyday humdrum everybody seems to be so horrified about. I'm all for being a productive member of society, seriously I am, but I want to do something...more. Dunno what that is, but I want to make people happy. Happy to be alive.
I've been watching the news every day, nearly all day, since I've been home. There's a big world out there...sometimes it's so easy to forget contained in the walls of HoodWorld! First, I need to finish up my work, here. I need to get a job. I need to be more than what I am. It's not philosophical bullshitting either, I really want to do it. SO! Where to start... That's step one. I don't like steps. Sounds so much like AA. Stupid, played-out metaphors. Can we PLEASE make some new metaphors and similes, people? Put them on Taco Bell packets or something. The back of Starbucks cups.
In other news, the American Idol finale is tonight. I figure Adam's going to win. In keeping with my only-vote-when-there's-two-people-left tradition, I text-voted him a lot last night. Whoot!
So...I know in order to get big, you have to start small. So says the laws of nature. And those dinosaur-shaped sponges in capsules. Now...what's the best way to get out of my capsule?
Last year I looked at how to start up my own nonprofit business. Don't know, however, if I should. Is that the right thing to do? I think it would be. I'll just have to decide what the goal of it is. I was thinking ending world hunger would be pretty awesome. Geesh. I don't know. It's a big decision. As are most things in life. I'll think about it. Tralala.
