2. read at least 3 novels
3. finish at least 1 rpg during the break
4. visit a mall and watch a movie at least once a week
5. finally learn to drive flawlessly
6. exercise or work out
7. learn to play an instrument
8. buy a gift and think of a song
9. get my hair cut

a lot of what i've done have only led to starts and partly's. i've decided to start a new, functioning rpg on my ps2. my dad recommended an old novel for me to read, which i already started last night. i'm trying some simple exercises at home during my tons of spare time (i hate to admit it, but pe 1 might have come in handy). and (i think) i'm making progress in this site's layout, even if just in small baby steps. not bad for a day's work.

just about the only thing i've fully accomplished is having my hair cut. despite the thousands of styling possibilities available to my overgrown moptop, i took the fallback route and just had it trimmed. long enough for vanity purposes, and short enough for it not to prick my eyes every time i nod my head. just enough to have it sprout back to before by the time classes start again. as i saw precious inches being chopped off in the barbershop, the only thought running through my mind was "so much perfectly good hair, no style to go with it." so here's to my hair. maybe by the time it grows back again, i'll have the courage and resolve to get it cut in a more daring, trendy style. or at least the common sense to use styling gel constructively.

i know i'm being overly dramatic. it happens when someone has nothing better to do.
