I've gotta wake up. I've gotta start doing something with my life. If school is the only thing that will keep me focused, what the hell am I gonna do when I graduate?
First things first - I need to establish a schedule, a routine, a set of guidelines for my daily activities and things I need to do.
Things I need to do:
*. Fix car.
1. Figure out rooming cancelation at App.
2. Finish BiLo job application/get more applications.
3. Finish yardwork.
4. Do more yardwork.
5. Clean up my room/organize.
6. Read/write/do something artistic.
7. Make money - "get money, get paid."
8. Enjoy my summer.
9. Pool parties/hang with friends/go to Wilmington.
With the way I am, lists like this one tend to work backwards. Procrastinate one thing by doing another. Tomorrow, I'll be hanging out with Cody. Today, I hung out with tennis friends. As soon as the pool is fixed, pool parties will ensue. When the time comes, I'll be in Wilmington. I'll make money regardless of what I have to do. In an effort to avoid job applications and cleaning, I'll write and draw. Then I'll clean, and as I clean, I'll end up finding old junk and memories associated with such junk, and waste even more time.
I wonder... what if I behave the way I do because, deep down in my subconscious, I don't have any idea what I would if it was all accomplished?
Something else is behind all of this. Just before summer started, I told myself that my plans were to learn a foreign language, learn to play the piano, and get a job. So far, I've merely acquired a Russian textbook, and barely filled out one job application.
Oy.
