I just wrote an 8 page paper for Foreign Policy and now I'm a bit
buzzed. Don't quite know what to do, it's a strange predicament-- I can
sleep for an hour and ten minutes, knowing I wont wake up in time to
take a shower but at least getting some sleep, or I can stay up and
make sure I shower and get ready on time, eat cake and ice cream for
breakfast in hope of some sort of sugar high, and maybe get tomorrow's
Foreign Policy homework done. I think Option 2 is looking pretty
attractive right now.
I turned 18 on Friday, had an awesome party with my closest friends,
minus a few whom I promise I will plan another party for soon because I
love you all. And then on Saturday, I saw The Interpreter with a bunch
of friends, and made what I think is an important life decision which
could possibly complicate my entire life but I don't care-- I've always
been obsessed with the UN, and I think I might consider at least
studying diplomacy/international relations in college, possibly trying
to work for the UN, even if it's an insignifcant job like an
interpreter or something, just to be working for the UN would be the
awesomest, most fulfilling kind of job I can think of. What better way
to change the world than to work for the UN and work for peace? I know
it's stupid and will never happen but I like exploring all my options.
And now I'm going to draft a resolution for Wednesday's simulation--
I'm actually excited! I might actually speak! And submit my resolution
to the SC! Even if I get shot down horribly I want to try.
