Spring Break Sloven
Feels so good to be back home in my own bed with my face buried in a fluffy pillow and my cat lying in between my feet at the end of the bed. It just sucks because I know that in a day or two I’ll be so used to home that I’ll take it for granted and forget to soak it all in. The sights, the smells, the feelings, it’ll all become as commonplace as breathing until the day I have to step back into my car and make that eight hour drive once again and return to my cold, small room at school. I don’t mean physically cold, just a feeling, a vibe. It’s a school dorm. How cozy can it actually be? No matter how many posters you put up, no matter how broken in the mattress is, it’s just not home.
I’m going to try to make a conscious effort to make every day special. Not that I’m going to go out everyday and do amazing things and go to the beach and hang out with friends. No. I plan on staying here every day and writing, reading, watching movies and playing video games. I know. I’m a wild child. Frankly, I’m just not a beach goer. Sorry if I don’t enjoy looking at hard bodies of girls and knowing I can never be with them and looking at hard bodies of guys and knowing I can never be like that. Nah, I prefer to live my life in fantasy worlds of movies and games.
I just hope I can remember to appreciate each day I have because they are so few. I only have around seven days left and it seems like such an inefficient amount of time. And there’s so much I want to do.
First of all, I need to catch up on my writing. I’ve had so many ideas floating around in my head, plus certain occurrences that have transpired over the last several weeks. I just haven’t had the energy or time I’ve wanted to write something decent. Well, now I have all the time in the world so hopefully I should be writing some good stuff.
I also want to read more. I did so well in January and then I got stuck on a book in February and then started working on my film constantly so just stopped reading all together. I downloaded a bunch of books onto my Kindle and bought some physical books as well. I bought two yoga books ’cause I really want to start getting into yoga. One was yoga for men which is supposed to teach me how to get an erection without having to take a pill first and the other one was yoga for depression which is supposed to teach me how to be happy… without having to take a pill first. Since yoga is supposed to be good for the mind, body and soul, I figured it’s perfect for me as I need help in all of these areas.
I also wanna catch up on my movies. I went to the movie rental store yesterday and picked up a couple of horror flicks and two games. I can’t believe they only had one copy of Resident Evil 5 and was more flabbergasted that the one copy was available! I snatched that baby right up. I mean, it’s a pretty highly anticipated game. And it was Saturday. And there was only one copy. And yet, there it was, waiting for me! I have yet to play it but I will be very soon! I also picked up Dead Space and played it for about half and hour before the CD messed up and couldn’t be read any more. Pretty annoying. Oh well, I’m gonna be killing infected villagers soon enough. Oh yeah, and I have this super hot African agent as my partner. A hot girl with a gun standing next to me? Sounds like fun to me if I don’t get too distracted!
Ah, lazy days and their wonderful ways. Things are good at the moment.
