Hey Neil,
I start class in eighteen days. I almost forget what it is like to be in class. I feel rather directionless without a set schedule for my mornings. Summer life is a life without perspective. Summer life is a life of eating for the heck of doing something with my hands. Ugh, that is so terrible. I am bored again. This boredom makes me feel like I am suspended in a swimming pool of jello. I can move forward to the fall semester soon enough, the calendar is in charge of how quickly I progress towards the rest of my life.
I should be enjoying my summer. But I do not want a summer of suspended jello swimming. Or maybe my boredom is making me lose perspective, or maybe I am really really bored. Ugh, this is painful. I do not know what to do with my day; my plans depend on whether other people already have checked out the DVD I want for the week. I have not opened a book in days; I have not read more than a chapter of a book in two weeks! Why am I so lethargic? And it is not that I do not want to make an effort to read a book; I do not think I can read if I want to.
The jello is stopping my brain from getting up and doing… doing anything. Maybe class on the eighteenth will melt the jello, or eat up the jello. I really doubt I will be able to maintain my kick ass academics with jello in my brain. Maybe all the television shows on DVD put the jello in my brain. But you know the upside of borrowing things from the library every day? Exercise. DVDs from the library are a great reason for me to take a walk everyday. If I walk fast enough I can get there in five minutes. I know that ten minutes of elevated heartbeat a day is not enough, but it is better than nothing. Plus I get aerobics at work. That’s another thing.
I think my work schedule is helping the jello. Dinner time is an inconvenient time to work for social purposes; all my friends work during the day. So I am alone all day and jello is making me fat and my brain lazy. And my boredom is making me complain. Maybe I should take more walks.
Don’t Forget to be Awesome,
Love Pam
I’m glad you’re looking forward to your acedemia. It’s good to have a goal. My goal is to do as much freelance work as I can, but Hershey takes away over 38 hours a week from me. So what time is there?
Today Mandy is at Hersheypark with her brother Jason. They’ve been there since 10 and I’m about to go join them after finally getting freelance work done.
I drew about 5 images for Gottalottaheart (thats a ton for that) and I drew a kick ass dove for the tattoo company. I need to squeeze in three more this week hopefully. PLUS Blenderman this week will be important, three things of Cats VS, my work schedule is screwed up AND we’re going camping Thur-Sat!. JEEZ.
I’ll squeeze world of warcraft in there. You know it.
I’m glad you’re walking. Helps keep headaches away from slothing too much. I’m happy class will give you purpose.
And I agree about going 50/50 on class books.
I gotta go. Stormrunner calls my name.
DFTBA

I just saved more than one hundred dollars by buying a two texts books at Half.com. One of them is probably in crappy condition, but as long as I can read the math problems from it…right?

Oh, and Dad is paying for the other two books.
