Passion, or lack thereof

[tanuki39]

So today I saw the movie Julie&Julia with my Mom and sister Karen. It was a very enjoyable film, and, predictably enough, I now have a real (though no doubt short-lived) desire to learn how to cook. Anyway, what was truly striking about the film was the passion the two main characters had for their hobby of cooking. It made me a little sad,

It made me a little sad, because frankly, I don't know if there is anything I enjoy doing so much that I could describe myself as "passionate" about it. I suppose reading, to some extent, and writing, to a lesser. But if I was truly passionate about those, wouldn't I make more time for them, instead of allowing myself to get sucked into video games

I think you stole those words from my brain, seriously. I think about that all the time, because I here I am being an art major and I can't even get off my ass and draw one damn thing this summer. *headdesk* I mean, I had a fairly good time drawing for class, but somehow if its not for class I don't do it, and I hate that I don't do it but obviously I don't hate it enough because I still don't do it. And then I wonder, well gee, if I'm not all "ZOMG ALL ART ALL THE TIME", what am I doing majoring in it?
