1. I need to write more journal entries, but I feel so uninspired. I've been trying to get back into writing like I used to, but I don't seem to be able to. I think I blame it on the fact most of my courses are heavily math influenced, and we don't get around to much creative writing in English.
2. I have some of the best friends on the planet, and I need to let them know how much I appreciate them. But it kind of sucks, since I've been going through a rough patch (think cactus forest rough) and it's hard for me to positive and let them know how I feel. So this is my indirect thank you to everyone who's been helping me.
3. I love piano. I really wish I had more time to play, and now that I'm starting to work, I'll have even less time. None the less, every time I do practice, I just feel myself getting more and more into it, and I could easily play for hours a day.
4. This isn't really a revelation, but I'm starting work tomorrow. This is my first job, and while most other parents are forcing their kids to concentrate on school this year, mine have decided that getting a job is more important then scholarships. This is going to make the coming months really hard, but hopefully I won't screw anything up.
5. This goes along with #1. I'm writing an essay right now, due Friday, and normally I have some idea of how to make it better, what to fix, how to reword it, but this time I'm totally in the dark. Any English genius who reads this is WELCOME to take a look at it and tell me where I'm going wrong (especially if you've read One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich). I doubt I'll get any takers, but I might as well try.
