This weekend was my last before school. In a mere twelve hours, I will be in Physics lecture, awesome! Anyhoo, I took this work-free opportunity to attack my to do list, and it really has been highly satisfying. I conquered many a task, such as vanquishing bad Dirt Devil assembly instructions, planted plants, started my journey to wealth, kept in touch with old friends, plotted for the future, and went out and had fun. Now, I have a clean house, a clean conscience, and some fresh homemade muffins to show for it, and let me tell you, it is satisfying. I have spent so much time searching for leisure time this summer, but I had forgotten how much I love productive time. I think I started blocking it out, because I get too excited about everything.

Like too excited to sleep. After this weekend, I can’t wait to start a bunch of volunteer projects, keep learning about renewable energy, hit the punching bag at the gym, and about 500 other things. I keep having to tell myself to calm down because there is so much that I want to learn about and do, but I have to focus on school. Funny how the intent of my weekend was to get things done so I could simplify, but now find myself in the mood to conquer everything. Sigh. It is definitely better than having a zest for nothing though, so you can call me lemon. Or orange. Or lime if you are really feeling festive. Aye!

Afterthought:  I am spending all this time compiling tips and tricks for life, as well as embarking on a personal finance journey of investing my IRA, and generally discover cool stuff all the time.  So, I will begin to share these savory and sweet tidbits with you, the glorious reader.  My first tip:  Rocky road ice cream.  I suppose it is more of a recommendation, but Dreyer’s Reduced Fat version is a fluffy, marshmallowy delight.
