Chapter 3: Still Nothing New

So I have a new job, a new apartment, and a new major, yet everything still seems the same. It's almost pathetic how little I've done lately. My greatest accomplishment is probably the amount of movies that I've watched in the past few weeks. It really is astonishing. I changed my major (yet again) this semester, and it's set me back a bit. It also allowed me to drop the most miserable of my classes this semester, which I thought would be more enjoyable than it actually has been. Turns out I always have to have SOMETHING to do, otherwise I do nothing-- hence the movie watching. I'm ready for next semester to start. What I want from 2010... a new beginning. Hopefully this time it sticks.

I've been watching/listening to an uncanny amount of Glee these past few weeks as well. Sometimes I wish I had a pushy stage mom that forced me into the limelight. Although my subpar vocals probably wouldn't have taken me far in the world of competitive world of show choir. The dream is still alive though. Really, I just wish I would have stuck to some extracurricular I did growing up. Turns out I am an amateur at a LOT of things. How late is too late to start something new? I just recently started watching The Middle (and Modern Family, too. Both great shows). The daughter (Sue) is awful at pretty much everything that she tries to do... but still continues to try. Despite the fact that she is in braces, I almost envy her. My cynicism gets the best of me. I'm not good at not being good at things, and it only gets worse with age. Another fault of mine that has been showing its dark side lately is my lack of patience. I'm losing real patience, and gaining the ability to fake patience. That's really all that matters, right?

It seems that I'm willing to do almost anything to procrastinate studying for finals. I actually took to making a real breakfast this morning (crepes--which actually weren't bad. My cooking method is to be proud when it looks like what it's supposed to), cleaning the apartment, and now writing a blog. Turns out the class that I did stay in for my old major (genetics) is going to be the death of me. I'm almost positive my professor has it out for college students. There is no way a person is this vindictive.

I've procrastinated enough...
