year-to-date
I know the calendar year is something we as humans made up. There is no December, March or July in nature, only seasons. But every year I look forward to Jan 1 so I can start over.
I think this has been one of the most stressful years I've had in a long time, mostly b/c I've been so busy. But also because:
I turned 30. (the days leading up to it were actually worse than the day itself)
I've been intolerant and unforgiving with various people. (whose relationships with me vary from close to distant)
I still haven't completely made up my mind about grad school. (every day I think up a different reason to go or not go)
I've been slow to defend myself in certain situations, leading to self-pity. (I try to be nice, to get people to like me, and many just walk all over me.)
I've been scatter-brained and forgetful (this gets worse as I get older, doesn't it?)
Next year will be different! I won't make the same mistakes. I'll be more assertive. I will make decisions with clarity and forethought. I'll take better care of myself and figure out how to cook all those nutritious veggies I don't like. I'll also roller-skate more, make things for people, and slow the fuck down.
