(no subject)
I did some thinking today, and I came to a conclusion. During the entirety of this month of December, 2004, I am NOT going to be negative about myself. That doesn't mean no discipline or anything, because that falls under the category of constructive criticism of myself, I mean no self-bashing or self-pity, thinking about how my life sucks. I'm going to stay positive, and focus on only good things! I will start right now, with a positive entry about my day. I woke up this morning, and my mom said it was cold. Well, I went outside, and it really was cold! I wore a sweatshirt and a scarf today! It feels like winter, and I love it!!! That made a very good start to the day. English was fine, a little tedious, but nothing too dramatic. More RC discussion, and some writing for our future essays. Then came French. Again, a bit boring, but nothing out of the ordinary. Lunch was BPC, then art. We started a paper mache project kind of thing, where we have to make an animal out of newspaper and tape, then use paper mache to finish it. I decided to do a zebra, which ended up looking oddly like a frog by the end of the period. No worries, though, it WILL look like a zebra in the end. Mom took me home, and I decided when I got home that today was going to be a productive day. No lounging around the house, switching between TV and computer. No, today was going to have a positive impact and make a dent in the rather large list of things-to-do-before-Christmas list I have for myself. Well, when I put my mind to it, I can actually get stuff done. I sat down on the couch, and promptly started reading the first half of our RC reading assignment, to get ahead (which I usually don't do). Then I actually read the notes for Bio (which I never do), and did all the questions for World History. It was only 3:30, and my homework was already done! So I put on some nice Christmas music (as soon as it feels like Christmas, I take full advantage of it!), and did the dishes. It was an hour job, but I did it! I then started on the holiday soldier letter for BPC, and made myself dinner. An actual, real dinner, with full and complete courses (NOT just chips and applesauce or something like that, whcih I usually do). At 5:00 I took a break from my work to watch my allotted 1 hour of TV (Gilmore Girls, obviously), while eating dinner. Then I turned off the TV (a large feat for me), and finished the soldier letter. My mom came home, and I successfully sold her 3 tickets to hypnogig for BPC. I also started homework for tomorrow (which is a first), attempted to tidy up my room, and folded all the clothes which have been sitting there for the past half-week in a crumpled pile on the window sill in my parent's room since I did wash this weekend. A very, very productive day, if I do say so myself. And look at the time! It's only 8:41 right now, and I'm already done with everything! Well, I'm off to do my piano practicing, to be even more productive before I go to bed! There, I successfully finished a positive entry!!!!
