(no subject)
I'm in the mood to learn lately. I want to learn and do something new, or just continue to learn more about things i'm "okay" at. Well, preferably both. Lately I've made paper, which was fun. I also made soap. Well, I took pre-existing chunks of plain and clear soap and made them into different shapes, colors and patterns. I have frog and turtle soap as well as color shapes.
I've ordered quite a bit of yarn and I'm going to try out some more complicated crochet or knit patterns in the near future. I've basically done simple stuff til now because I was always afraid to commit to something difficult because I didn't know if my schedule would allow for regular knitting/crocheting time. Therefore I was afraid I'd start something really complex and have to put it down and not remember where I was or how to do it when I came back (yes I know this is silly, but still). NO MORE. I will do something beyond normal patterns.
I also have been wanting to start playing pool more and with other people (as well as those i already play with). Not that i don't enjoy playing with everyone now, but i want to see if playing against other people will help me improve too. Once you've played against a certain person for years, it's not a matter of how good either of you are at it anymore. It becomes "i know you, i know what you can hit and what you can't, and i don't have to think about it too much." So yes, new opponents.
I also want to learn something completely new, that I've never done before. But I don't know what that something is yet. I'm just in a very eager mood to do things.
part of that is probably because I'm not in school right now and still haven't finished. I feel so completely UNPRODUCTIVE and lame. and yes, i know i work in my field and have experience and all that, but i feel incomplete. i'm making more money this summer and catching up on some bills but i still don't know when/how much i can afford for school. i'm just a bit anxious about the whole thing. and yes i know about financial aid... i'm just not eligible for some of it... and i have some school bills i have to pay first.
oh boy, the determined icon looks like it's going to pounce!
