Currently Listening to: Graveyard - Feist

I'm a little worried that things don't phase me much anymore - specifically events that require attention and a healthy amount of worrying. I've gotten to a point where pretty much nothing affects me and just rolls off my back. Excuse the lack of literary quality, but I feel like writing colloquially today...But back to what I was saying - things that can be disarming to most don't matter much to me. The way I see it, things happen. Moreover, they happen beyond our control almost always. Life takes its course and we are mere bystanders watching it pass. I am not saying we don't have any control, but I am saying that we don't have as much as we should, seeing as, well...this is our life. Things happen, we deal and move along.


A very disillusioned and slightly passive,

Lack of Commitment

Currently listening to: Hoppin' John - Cannonball Adderley

I don't exactly understand why I forget to maintain any sort of diary or journal. It seems to just...happen? I really do enjoy writing, I swear! And it serves as an outlet for me to talk about inconsequential things on a public forum, one of my favorite activities. Well, I'm back. And we'll see how long this lasts. In my life right now: college, an obscene amount of Gen Bio to learn, a few idiotic mishaps and many, many great weekends. My friends back home would make fun of me that when I got to college, people should be aware that I had little to nothing of a life before. So, the amount of freedom that comes with being away from home may get to my head. And it has to say the least. Although I think I've found my niche, I have already done many a ridiculous thing here since my arrival. And isn't that what it's all about? The idiotic college years - to mess up and have fun? Yes, I realize my purpose here is to get an education and become an enlightened, well-rounded individual but I am allowed to mess up in between. The idiocy will always prevail, I think; that's just how I see it happening for the rest of my life and I'm quite content with it!


I promise to try and commit to this diary, but no promises on whether or not that will actually work.



'Til next time,
Lisa
