Need Some Motivation...


So I'm here in my dorm room being absolutely and totally unproductive. There are many things I could be doing right now... writing one of my two essays, studying for my philosophy test, reading my massively annoying (or annoyingly massive) anthropology assignment. Argh, but no... I am putting that aside to update this very important blog. 

All the while, I'm wandering about this thing called school and college. This thing that is supposed to expand one's mind, but sometimes just feels like a never ending cycle of papers and reading assignments. Yeah I've learned nice pieces of knowledge over the past summer, and over senior year, and over last summer when I was taking classes at ACC. It's all nice, sometimes fascinating, and of course always interesting. 

But this nonstop academic activity has really made me sick of school and not motivated in the least. I feel like a slow turtle, drudging and dragging on with my assignments. And time... time is like the annoying hare that races past me, reminding me that I'd better not fall behind. 

Don't worry, I don't fall behind. No, I pull those lovely all-nighters of course, and begin the morning with some form of caffeine. Everything always works out though...

And everything will work out. I just wish I could motivate myself to finish these last few weeks. And I wish I could feel just a tad bit more excited about the fall semester. A part of me is, it really is; probably my spirit. It can sense the changes and new atmospheres that are to come. 

Oh, but my mind (well maybe more so my brain) is not looking forward to the fall. More lectures, tests, the works. It needs to be renewed... it'll always need to be renewed. 
(That's a good word right there; thank you Holy Spirit :) 

Renewed daily, moment by moment... 

Well, as far as my body goes, I think it just needs some sleep and it'll be good to go for tomorrow and for the fall semester. Well... that's my cue to conclude. 


Thanks for reading and listening... It's been fun... Ima go to bed >) Ciao!
