Oh.
Oh, hi.
I really hate to have left off and disappeared after that last blog. If I hadn't been all over every other social networking site (ugh), it'd have been safe assume my brain had exploded and I died.
But alas, here I am.
I've been thinking about something lately. I would like to share this piece of information with you. Would you like to be indulged?
Great!
I find that I cannot concentrate on one thing anymore. There's always something else (or a few things) going on in my brain at the same time. I think this has been the cause of much of my stress-- aside from the fact that things *are* stressful lately. Yes, I have 14 papers to write in the next 6 weeks, but I've found a sort of balance. I think I'll be okay on the school front.
But my lack of concentration extends to, well, everything. Even if I'm watching a movie, I'm thinking about other things. For example, I just watched Fight Club because it came in from Netflix. I had just read the book last month and was eager to watch the film again. I could barely focus on it. I fast forwarded the last 45 minutes.
The same goes for really happy moments in my life. i.e. visiting Cade in Florida. I want to do so many things there (we make so many fun plans) but by the time I get there, there's so much in my head that I get tired and we don't do very much at all. I ruin things that way. We enjoy our time together, but we don't do so much.
Just a couple of examples.
Long story short, I struggle to live in the moment. I'm always waiting to finish my next thing. Before I know it, I'll be graduated from college (DECEMBER '10 BABY!!!!), and then LIFE starts. You know, the rest of my life. The FuTuRe. What then?

Interesting blog post! That's actually kinda funny that you fast forwarded through the end :P You read the book so that's all that really matters right? haha Now that I think about it, you are right about when you come visit.. haha But we definitely still enjoy our time together :) And at least we have traditions! i.e. movies! :D hehe I love you lots. It was so great to talk to you a lot today! <3 -Cade
