few random thoughts of laziness
Just a few random thoughts.
I hate when people don't allow people to change. It's really bothersome.
I changed my gmail profile background and it's really interesting because now the background of my email reflects the weather outside. Which is fantastic because if I really wanted to see dark grey and cloudy I'd have simply looked outside.
Yesterday I had a computer-free day. I looked at email in the morning, left my computer at home for the 10 hours I was at work and looked at it again only when I got home and before I went to bed. Part of me wonders why I even did that, its not as if things actually mattered.
It wasn't a bad day without the computer. I got some of my reading done, helped students at work and finally got so sick of one of my coworkers complaining about the paper she had to write and how difficult it was that finally after listening to these complaints and attempting to help for nearly the whole time I was at work, I sat with her computer and with only what she'd told me and a dictionary definition and within half an hour had most of her paper, including introduction, main topic sentences, examples and a partial conclusion, written. Granted it needed the class examples and other examples and definitions from reading as well as the experience from the chosen profession. But seriously half of a paper written in half an hour just by listening to her complain about it for more than 8 hours. I wish I could write my own papers so easily.
In the meantime, it was a productive day, I got some reading done. Almost finished the book that I should have had done for monday's class. I got some research done for my next paper. I finished an argument and became frustrated again. Spent some time chatting with friends and with mom. It was good times all the way around. Refreshing to have an anti electronic (as I also ignored my phone most of the time as well) day. Maybe I'll do it again thursday.
I feel like chocolate cake. Maybe I'll do that after class. Nice cheap thing to do considering i have 1/4 tank of gas an $5 in my bank account. Unfortunately I also have very little motivation. This is exactly where I've been for the last 2 weeks, looking at the clock realizing that I have 15 minutes to be out the door for class or work and realizing I haven't showered or prepared at all because I'm lazy and bored, completely burnt out with life in general. I am in desperate need of spring or summer. Definitely sunshine. I feel like it would be nice to wake up and feel motivated in the morning and get up and get ready and have enough time that my hair isn't thrown into a ponytail so it's out of my face but have time to get up and do my hair, curl it if I want and feel pretty for the day. Do make up in the bathroom instead of at stoplights in the car. I'm tired of the rain and cold and dreariness of winter...
