Homework is no fun when it consists of reading 27 pages of an article with small font. I suppose that isn't even too much for a college course, but I'd much rather spend my time sleeping (so I have energy for class tomorrow?). Haha, just kidding.. I have the worst student mentality.
On a completely irrelevant note, I spent a large portion of my evening looking through my Myspace-- listening to my old playlists, looking through my pictures, and reading old emails. After not being Myspace active for over 2 years or so, it was weird because I legitimately did not remember half of the things I found.
How strange.
For the most part, I realized how easily friendships come and go, how nonchalant my dilemmas back then were, and how awful my hair looked then (I mean really, no one can pull of cow licks and mullets). It also made me realize how insignificant day to day life is. I mean, sure life is a gift, and we're blessed in so many ways.. but really, how often do you actually remember what happens daily? Heaven only knows I can't even remember what happened two days ago, so I suppose my goal to myself is to start writing in my diary again. Either that, or make everyday so fucking amazing that I will never ever forget what I did that day. That seems like a hassle though, so maybe the diary idea is better. Continuing forth, Myspace was highly amusing tonight.
5 things I know now that I didn't know then:
1.) When stranger boys strike up conversation with you, consistently over nothing, do not be flattered when they ask how your day went. Better yet, do not ACTUALLY tell them how your day went. They are stalkers, goobers, and creepy.
2.) When you say I love you to someone, (especially for the first time), acronyms are worth so much less than "I l-o-v-e y-o-u". Is it really that difficult to type out the whole 8 letters? No, it isn't. And if it is, then you don't love the person.
3.) Posting pictures of yourself and saying things like, "I look fat" or "My hair looks awful", is absolutely atrocious. If you really looked fat or your hair looked awful, you wouldn't have chosen that picture to post.. unless it were of sentimental value. In that case, it wouldn't matter if you really looked fat or had awful hair.
4.) Changing your myspace layout everyday is such a waste of time. Time that could have been well spent, like studying for SAT's so that you could go to a prestigious university as opposed to a local one. In the long run, it'll be worth it-- to be able to get out of your comfort zone, and live on your own.
5.) Making play lists, however, is the best investment in time ever. Waste as much time as you want making play lists, because music never gets old. When you forget about a song, and you hear it years later in a play list, it brings you back to all these different memories. The feeling you get of being reminded of older memories, is pretty fucking spectacular. It makes you miss the old you, but makes you happy realizing that you lived and survived through the stupidity of adolescence.
I will attempt to do homework now.
In my dreams.
