Random Ranting

Parentheses, Pretending and Paucity

Something random changed and I'm not sure if this is going to look right, but oh well. That's what the edit button is for.

So anyway, look! Updating! I was going to update a long time ago but I realized I had nothing to say. Well, that hasn't really changed, but I at least have something that vaguely resembles a topic now. I'll call it "My Feelings" Nah, that's too cliché. How about, "My Current Mood" ? Or, "Proof that My Emotional Range is Much Larger than a Teaspoon"? Hehe.

First though, I have the hiccups. Very irritating. It hurts! And I already had a headache.

Anyhow, to get to the point (it's not in Disney World anymore) I do want to talk about the way I'm feeling right now, because I'm confused. (What else is new? (That's a really weird saying, if you think about it. Because it isn't new. It's like saying same difference. (But I'm a bit of a hypocrite as I use both of those expressions.))) See, I'm feeling a little...down, I guess. Not especially perky, probably due to lack of sleep and I didn't eat much today. But rather than acting sort of melancholy, I smile and act like I normally do, since there's no real reason for me to feel that way. I'm wondering if that's correct. I don't want to be fake and pretend nothing is wrong, yet at the same time, my emotions are not really a good gauge of how I'm feeling (particularly during this time of the month, if you know what I mean). Hmm. That's all I have to say about that (just call me Forrest). How unusual. I didn't really rant. I'm not sure if that's good or bad.

On a less confusing note, I made myself a list of goals for the summer. It's passing at a weird rate. It seems like it's going fast, but looking at the calendar, it really hasn't. *shrug*

Well, these are my goals. Some of them are a bit ambitious. (With special parenthetical commentary based on hindsight.)

1) Get a job (Er...still working on that one)
2) Write Purpose Statement (Heh, that makes sense to no one but me)
3) Start an Oasis Newspaper (Oh, yeah. Forgot about that one)
4) Join and be faithful to Helps ministry (Oh, yeah. Forgot about that one)
5) Redecorate room and keep it clean (Well, I got the clean part)
6) Read at least five new books (Eregon, A Wrinkle in Time, The Wedding, Pride and Prejudice, and one other (suggestions welcome))
7) Write at least one new story and finish one old one (And the award for most likely goal to be achieved goes to...)
8) Learn to play bass, drum set (I need people to leave me alone so I can practice)
9) Memorize Philippians (Actually, this one is more likely to get finished, as I have chapter one and most of chapter two already done :))
10) Make a short film (HA! Oh, sorry...)
11) Restart Blog and keep it (Yay!)

I don't know if I'll actually complete this list. I probably won't. #1 and 2 really need to be done, 6, 7, and 9 will probably happen. 11 is happening, or you wouldn't be reading this. Although, this will probably be the last time I update before I go on vacation next week. I might post something tomorrow, but I can't talk about tomorrow yet, because it would be just my luck if…well, I'll tell you tomorrow. *g*

Well, that about wraps up this rant, as it's late and I need to get up early for Tomorrow *g*.

Until next time,

P.S. I was at the bookstore with Natalie the other day, and she was looking at PSAT or PSAE or PNAA (Please Not Another Acronym) test books, and I found out my vocabulary is not as good as I thought it was. So I'm trying new words. Paucity means scarcity, since I scarcely post.

P.P.S. The thing at the bottom there is the comments thing. I have no clue how it works. If anyone figures it out, let me know. Otherwise, just ignore it. I'm trying to make it work.
