laundry list

Truck has been sold, moving stuff is coming together, and the house is still a mess, but not nearly as bad as it could be. (reminds me of me and Sheri convincing ourselves that our disc golf throws were not "nearly as bad as it could have been" when in all reality they were some pretty bad shots). I feel like I should record these memories (which I am right now) but at the same time it just feels like one little thing after another I have to get done and not some big momentous cheesy moment like the romantic comedies I watch. I'm moving to Boston where I know no one. I don't even know if I'll be going to school this fall. That's kind of a big deal I think. I feel like I should be preparing in some way, but I don't really know what for. Maybe I should practice more at making friends and being super stoked on everything people say to me so that way they'll like me. 

So far everything else has been falling into place, I wonder if God plans on seeing this last major aspect through for me or not, we'll see. Either way something is happening. As much as I love my cat, I'll be happy to be passing him off. Today he was being extra annoying, which once every week-week and a half he has a tendency of being. Constant meowing, refusing to leave me alone, etc. Study habits are difficult. Part of me just feels like taking the B and half assing the rest of my studying, and part of me genuinely wants to know and understand this material (regarding my political science class mostly). Each semester I tell myself I'll improve my habits. which I have in baby steps, but not enough to make huge differences. For instance, this semester I have started studying sometimes three or four days before a final/midterm as opposed to the night before or the day of. I think I enjoy the pressure of cramming a little to much is the problem. 

This has been a string of random thoughts, or a "laundry list" of things I needed to get off my mind. 

one more thing, the lack of an updated Ipod has caused me to listen to things I don't normally listen to or are generally not so inclined to listen to. For instnace, my entire discography of Coletrane is on right now. I think having an unupdated Ipod is going to force me to listen to things I don't listen to on a normal basis, and if they are all as enjoyable as this, it won't be so bad.

  1. If you're going to be listening to an un-updated iPod, my advice to you is to go easy on the New Testament. I heard parts of it are a downer ;)
