I was sitting down to start on a rough draft of my english paper but couldn't concentrate because of the noise outside - so I put in some ear plugs. Immediate refuge. It was so calming to just listen to myself breath for a few seconds, something you don't often have the chance to hear inside your own head. It sort of reminds me of how I felt before ( Read more... )

Is it bad that calculus homework makes me cry 9 out of 10 times I try to do it?

Was I wrong to not have taken Mr. Smith's class? How could that have been a good idea?

I just got back from a 4-H "cookout" at Brent Clark's house. Yeah right. Those sneaks (on a plane)just wanted to get me in the car so they could tell me I'd been executively voted in as a replacement social committee co-chair because Shay McNeil graciously resigned. The good thing is that Ross is the other co-chair; the bad thing is that I have to ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning at 8:40. I initially felt productive. From downstairs I brought a bowl of oatmeal, some green tea and my monster of a summer reading assignment (of which i have a very manageable 60 pages left).

All of a sudden I feel much older. Like when you go from telling on your siblings to conspiring against your parents with them. I've transitioned again, it seems.
