I fail, and am regressing back to childhood

I fail at blogging. I mean, I created my list of "new year's resolutions" and I haven't successfully blogged since. Yup. I have a whole list of excuses I could use, but I won't bother you with them. I don't really have much else to say. Or rather I do, just no time or inclination to say them. Oh, whatever. Here's a few of them:

I feel like I'm being a little kid again, even amidst my packing for college. I bought a Litebright the other day, and spent an hour earlier playing with it. Yesterday, I bought some coloring books and spent an hour coloring. And I'm currently listening to an audiobook of a book I read and listened to scores of times when I was a kid. I'm not kidding. I can hear the audio when I'm reading the book, I've listened to it so many times. It's actually kind of ridiculous.

New Year's Resolutions

So I, like many who have come before me in this blogosphere, have struggled with actually blogging since I created this last fall. Yup, this is the first post in many a month. But, hopefully, it won't be the only one for months and months. That's right, I'm making a resolution (and it's not even New Years) to blog at least once a week. Well, I suppose it is a new year of sorts. In twenty days I'll be attending my first college classes, after moving into the dorm and away from the home and family and town I've known for eighteen years. It's a new school year, and those always illicit resolutions just as much as the changing of the calender year does. So because it is a new beginning, I might as well make some more resolutions.


1) Blog (at least) once a week

2) Write letters to friends every week

3) Keep up in my journal writing (something I've been neglecting this summer. I blame my letter writing)


Wow, I'm going to be well documenting my first year of college, if all goes to plan. Of course I have more plans and resolutions:


4) DON'T PROCRASTINATE!!!!

5) Make a budget and stick to it.

6) Schedule out my week ahead of time and stick to the plan.

7) Do homework on time and talk to professors.

8) Crafts!!!!!


That's about everything I can think of right now. I'm sure that I'll have several more by the time classes start in three weeks. And I'm also sure that these will be tweaked, changed, and just plain forgotten about, until they, or some reincarnation, appear toward the end of December/beginning of January. Because that's what happens, and many resolutions are made to be broken.
