I should really get back into the swing of reading (if that makes sense). I haven't read for "fun" in a while, and it's kind of sad.
I never finished My Sister's Keeper nor have I even read past the preface of Godel, Escher, Bach: ..../GEB.
I kind of wish that I had finished reading all of the books I've ever had to read for school. That would be great...except I'm not a big fan of re-reading anything.
I also kind of wished that I hadn't BSed as much as I did through high school. I might actually have learned more than I actually did with the BSing.
Honestly, I love learning things, but I wish I had better memory and more motivation to complete tasks. I dislike my downfalls.
I also wished that I had never let myself get so caught up in establishing a social life...because if I hadn't, then maybe I'd feel a lot better about myself mentally and academically and even in the long run, physically.
Like I said - I dislike my downfalls.
I dislike that my weaknesses dominate my life.
I also dislike how God made a very valid point in "Evan Almighty":
"Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?"
