This is Sparta!

The new 300 movie has motivated me to start working out again. Not as easy I thought it would be to go back to something I used to do so regularly. But I'm trying. Doesn't help to have mom bring home apple cakes and donuts from her work. Wish she'd stop. Guess I'll tell her.

School starts back up today. Am I behind already? Oh yeah! Great stuff. Thought I would use the break more wisely than that, but it was spent playing in the World of Warcraft. I really wish I could move beyond that game and focus on the real world. It's such an escape. Don't have any obligations except to quest and explore. It's fun. Perhaps too much fun.

in the jingle jangle morning

The countdown to midterms is more than a reality. I've spent a week getting back into the World of Warcraft and ignoring real life. Warcraft is an escape, but I should be spending more time in the real world. I need to find a different job. I need to start building my career.

Am I going to run back to the country I just escaped from? Do I have a real plan? No, and that's what concerns me. I'm tired of floating, freewheeling. I need to pony up and take the day by force. Stop being such a waif, blown by the winds of chance and time. It's no good. Won't lead no where. Won't help me later on. I'll only regret it.

One or the Other

I'm getting sick of both work and school. I wish I could do one and not the other. I hate balancing the two worlds as well as trying to have a social life. It's hard to relax when you always have a time constraint and a million things to do. Midterms are coming up in a few weeks and I don't feel prepared to start studying at all. I'm still playing catch up and only once I've done all the reading for this week will I even consider starting to study for the upcoming tests.

Playing hooky

Is skipping out on work to look for a different job such a bad thing? I just looked at my bike this morning and said "No."

Running Again

After my girlfriend's visit I noticed I'd put on some weight. I'm running again after a month hiatus and it feels good. Still a bit chilly outside but not so bad. I played some video games this morning after getting back from work. I stopped after a bit and did some school work. I hate it. I curse it. Still, it must be done. Going back to school after a break is so friggin' hard.

Can't Sleep

Because I have to go to work at 330am on Sundays, my rhythm is thrown out of whack. It's 1:05am and I can't sleep. I just had a crazy French/Polish dream about reapplying to go back to France mixed in with scenes from the movie Charade. Sucks. What do I do? Go to sleep or stay awake? I've only got two hours.

Shitty Shitty

I created this thing as an outlet. I used to have a blog but got rid of it after I stopped travelling. Too many people knew about it and I couldn't really write what I wanted anymore.

Life is shitty right now. Didn't make it to the next round of an interview, got a lot of work to catch up on, getting sick of my current work schedule. It sucks to think about all the crap I've got to do tomorrow. Wonder if I can do it. Hopefully.
