“Write a new blog entry. Clean your refrigerator. Fix your printer. Wash your water bottle. Clean your room. Water your plants. Figure out your taxes. Return your watch.”
Thoughts that go through my head all day and never get done.
It’s one of those times where people have either a “new start, new beginning” mentality or an “alright, let’s do this all again” mentality. I’m one of those people who feels the repetition and never grasped the concept of being excited for the start of something “new” like the beginning of the year or the beginning of a semester. I was quite excited during the summer to be starting something genuinely new – coming to UBC, but honestly, this semester isn’t too different from the last and I feel like I’m just doing everything over again; it’s not something new to me and therefore is not exciting.
Which leaves me where I am now, not too motivated to do anything, yet still not content doing nothing. I’ve just been trying to keep myself occupied in any way I can and hoping that I will become “awake” enough to go on with what I should be doing. The best way I’ve found so far is to play my 360. I didn’t bring it up with me first semester, but I have it here now, so hopefully Modern Warfare 2 and the games I got for Christmas will bring out the energy in me.
