I love being exhaustedly. It makes ones life fulfilled. I think the worst thing in life is to have too much time on your hands. I find when classes are canceled I get board even though I have 50 different things to do. PS running is fun!

Top of the Morning to you
I would like to go to England and experience other cultures. I thought about getting my passport and going. Spend some dollars to get there and convert the rest into in to pounds. When I run out of money, get a job and learn the value of a pound. A week would not be enough to experience everything. I would much rather live in London for a year and see what it is like to live/work there. Be my own anthropologist and discover their hidden culture. Learn their view on the world and see how they think. Maybe broaden my out look on life and expand the view in my own little world.

The Princess Diaries 2
I just saw this movie and I have to say I was disappointed in the film. I was looking for a romance that felt real. This movie felt fake. The problem is the main character isn’t a child, but five years older and collage graduate. She should be an adult with grace, but instead I see childlike mishaps. It isn’t the mishaps that take away from the film, but the opportunities missed immediately following each one. The romance seemed to deliberate and too abrupt. It should have flowed more smoothly, like a chance meeting with Nicolas. Instead of, you shoo away my fiancé while I will go talk to cute pie (Nicolas). It is the little things I didn’t like. For example, the timing seemed off, the dialogue was missed placed and the mottos didn’t blend in well. These are things a child would not pick up on, but it doesn’t meet my tastes. I was expecting something more, better than this.
I think I need to see a real tear jerker or an adult romance.

Sorry about the absence.
I have been too busy to write. Four courses and extracurricular activities are keeping me away from the computer. Two of my classes are five credit classes; the classes are Calculus and physics and require me to be at the top of my game. It is necessary to use ingenuity and intellect to understand and do my classes. My extracurricular activities are another aspect to my life. I am the Physics Club president and the secretary of the Campus Activities Board. For the Physics club, I create the agenda and find activities for the physics club to do. CAB requires me to attend the all the meetings, record notes for the minuets and know everything that is going on. To be successful, I plan, organized and prioritize. With all I do, I find writing to be low on my list of priorities.

What, I am writing?
I despise writing! This is my final decision after I had two, two hour spurts on the same paper. I have a large enough word count to hand the paper in, but my paper says nothing. I see it go in five different directions and it dose not fallow the thesis statement.
I do not know if my thesis statement matches the rest of the paper. Oh hell, I do not know where the paper is going. All the parts are related in some way. How they relate I haven’t found it out. My writing is similar to Lewis Thomas, but my topics appear more closely related. I need to find the broader topic I am looking for. I guess in an exploratory essay, the search is the path to discovery. I will find the thing I never knew existed. My writing is an expression of that, since I do not know what I am looking for (in my thesis) and I write to find it. I can safely say, I am taking full advantage of this quest in my writing. I explore a wide range of topics from death to how I fit into the big picture. It is a mangled mess to find out my thesis and ultimately who I am.

Movies a waste, I think so
As I look around my room at all the movies I have accumulated over the years I think what a waste of time. I see all of the Underworlds, the Ever Afters and the Peter Pans and I think… How could I have wasted so much time on this? I think what is so interesting about something that ends the same way. The film on the screen is not my life, so why should I care what happens to it. If I want something to happen I have to go out and get it, not watch a move and hope it will happen. I think the things in my life are there for a reason and it is, because I worked to get them. Films do nothing for me, because they do nothing for my life.

Grandma went to the emergency room.
My grandma took an ambulance to St Mary’s tonight. She was in bed all day and when she got up for some water she collapsed. She was at the sink and she started to wobble. I rushed to steady her and ended up caching her. She seemed to be fatigued, but ok. She got up and was able to stand. I went away for a second and had to rush to her before she collapsed. This time she was out and not responding. I called for dad to get ambulance. “Call 911 Grandma collapsed twice,” I said. Dad rushed to her side. He was silent and in shock. I urged again and waited for his approval. I got it, a single nod. I rushed to the phone and punched in those dreaded numbers. I called 911.
