Making the best of life- Lonely Lemon Grove Dance Party, Deia, Mallorca

In my last post, I forgot to mention that another goal is no whining. Inspired by all the whiners in my Ochem class, I am doing my best not to mention how hard/annoying/whatever things are. No one wants to hear that, including me. And, it has come to my attention that I am a big whiner. Delta-ing now.

Overall though, my life is undergoing a revolution. Some things good (working towards my goals and really liking it), some things bad (feeling like a flabby, trail-mix eating, sunshine deprived vampire). It was Sunday actually, when I realized that I need a Real (renegade, Ron Paul) Revolution in my life. It what when I was feeling like the aforementioned vampire, memorizing mechanisms mechanistically like a mechanical maniacal memorialist that I realized: my life is not going to get any simpler for any serious amount of time. Assuming I go to medical school and become a doctor, life won’t get more complicated, and I won’t be pleasantly surprised with a windfall of free time every day.

Thus, I have decided that I need to make time for the things that I want. The things that I always pretend that I don’t have time for include exercise, working on my to do list, making time for friends, reading more books (more than textbooks that is), volunteering, and having some time to relax. The truth is though, that I have time for all of these things. Maybe not for all of them each day, but they certainly don’t need the deprivation that they are getting. This is the crux of the post: I regret to admit that in the last few months I have watched all of seasons one and two of Sex and the City via the internets. If I stopped watching television as my break (which, although that is all I want to do after a long day of Ochem) I could do so many more satisfying things. And, those are what I will do. With that said, no more tv (except as a sleep aid, but only as a sleep aid). I am so excited just thinking of all the great things I am going to do!
