What a lovely mood I'm in.....

How the hell does my brother's getting into the social work program lead to me getting lectured on studying properly?

I'm happy for him, but ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Leave me alone! I get it! I suck at studying and life!!!!! I don't need people to keep pointing it out!

(P.S. Sorry for all the exclamation marks.)

Current Obsessions

Currently I'm obsessed with:

• Sushi Cat---a web game too addictive for it's own good http://www.freewebarcade.com/game/sushi-cat/
• California---because I can't wait to go on vacation :)

I need to stop being obsessed with both and actually do some studying.

California

The end of April can't come fast enough. I'm so looking forward to this trip. :D

I've noticed that when I'm really stressed out, or when I feel like my life is falling to pieces, I get a strong urge to drop everything and travel. It's more about getting away than really wanting to see a place, and I'm pretty sure that this counts as running away rather than wanting to deal with my problems. It's how I've always been.

When I began to study journalism, I think that's what I wanted out of it; to be able to travel while reporting on what was happening. And now, having a boyfriend and slowly gaining stability in my life has been a good thing (though you would never guess it from my previous post). I still have the urge to travel and get away, but it's nice to know that when i return home, there are people here who love me.

I suppose that much of the idealism I had going into journalism has been replaced with cynicism. Journalism, like everything else, is far from perfect.

This post makes absolutely no sense, and I apologize.
