Just A Minute…March 2010

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

This is the first time I’m attempting to do this; I would have liked to do this yesterday, but I was having problems with DNS and accessing my domain – but everything is fine now!

Watching…  Back-to-back episodes of Grey’s Anatomy and Gilmore Girls. Two very girly shows, but I’m really getting into them. Especially Grey’s Anatomy, which I never thought I would actually like. Currently on season two of each show.

Listening… to Sia’s “Breathe Me”, She&Him’s new album, as well as A Fine Frenzy. Also, which has been going on for awhile, the broadway recording of In the Heights.

Reading… Margaret Atwood’s A Handmaid’s Tale, after having just finished Jodi Picoult’s Nineteen Minutes, which is now one of my most favorite books of all time.

Grateful… for the fact that I’ve just handed in my last assignment for a little while, after what has been a crazy week.

Feeling... a little too dispensable.

Writing… once again. I recently went into a fanfiction craze – I’m almost done my story which has been int he making for five years – and I decided to tackle Script Frenzy again this year, after having skipped it last year. I’m going to try and adapt Nineteen Minutes. I’m really looking forward to it, and I’m glad that I got back into the flow of writing on a regular basis.

Learning… more Latin and German

Worrying… About what’s going to happen to me next year after I graduate from my junior college. My confidence about being able to get into a good university fluctuates quite a bit. I’m also wondering if I should take the SATs in June, so that way if I do very badly I could still have time to retake them in October of November to do better.

Planning… My summer and next semester, especially volunteering and extra curricular activities so that I have a better chance of getting into my universities of choice.

Thinking… About saving up money to buy a car, because I’m sick of not being allowed to go out of the house because my parents don’t want to give me a lift, and there’s no buses. It’s not normal that I only go out with my friends once every six weeks.

Eating… Yogurt. Easy, but still yummy.

Considering… Actually eventually going back into the sciences so that I can go into medicine. I watch too much doctor TV.

Straining… Myself to pay attention and concentrate in class this semester. I had so much motivation last semester, where did it all go?

Enjoying… the warm weather. It’s going to be 23 degrees tomorrow – it doesn’t usually get that warm until the end of May! Hello, summer! I’ve missed you.

Anticipating… Easter Weekend. I see lots of delicious food in my future. (:
