Hey Everybody,
It's May! Guess what that means, one month until my birthday, four days until my friend's birthday, 17 days until my sister's and 12 days until I go home. It finally feels like spring/summer. It is weird because my roommate left today. It is finally starting to hit me that I am going home. I have wanted to go home for some time now, but in a few days i will actually be there. That makes me really happy.
What is interesting to me is how quickly time slips through my fingers. In a month, I will be two decades old. How did that happen so quickly? I have enjoyed my life, but how did it happen so quickly. What is funny about time in general is how much time I waste on things that aren't important. If I harnessed the power of every moment and did something productive with it, I could be an intense scholar or a great musician. I don't understand why i have such strong lazy tendencies. All the time I have these great plans to do great things with my life, but I just never reach those goals.
Anyway, enough about my bad habits, I think I should go do something productive.

that music thing is pretty awesome too and im stealing it for my site. i have been looking for a place i could get free music for my site for a while!
hehe. I'm already two decades old, but it didn't feel strange when it happened. Maybe that's because most of my friends here are turning 23 or 24...
As far as making something out of my life, I feel you. I have all these great goals and great intentions and they're not becoming a reality, which makes me feel really guilty. I think that's probably typical of people our age. I hope by the end of my life I will have actually accomplished the things I wanted to.
I have been thinking a lot about lazy tendencies, too. Mostly because when it comes right down to it, it probably wasn't that I didn't find my classes interesting enough last semester, it was because I was lazy. Why was I lazy when I used to be able to work really hard? I think it comes down to expectations. In college--especially when you have no major or are not very far in your major--there's no one there holding you to high expectations, especially if you are living away from your family. And when you only have yourself to answer to (I mean me, I'm talking in general, too, I guess), you let things slide.
But, perhaps that's just one other theory in my long list of theories as to why I bombed my classes last semester....
Man, what a long post. I need to get a blog of my own.
