Down Time...What?

My life always seems to be in a constant rush, and even more so, I'm constantly surrounded by other people. That's why when I get a chance to have time alone, I jump on it. However, lately I'm finding myself not knowing what to do when I actually am alone. You can only clean the house so many times, surf all the tv channels, and you have to wait at least an hour between laundry cycles. It's almost as if I'm so not used to having this down time that I actually forget what to do. So this evening, alone, I asked myself, "What did I do before?" I scrap booked, but I haven't had time to print pictures. I read, but I can't start a book yet before the school semester is over because I won't have anytime to read until then, and if I start I won't stop. I wrote, I drew, I played a lot of solitaire =-), I baked, and I was caught up on good TV. I seriously feel that this is the first semester that I have been completely immersed in school and theatre that I haven't had time to actually participate in the little things I used to enjoy a lot. So, do I need to change this? And more so, how do I change this? Maybe this is something I really need to analyze over Christmas break. There's a goal. Take this next break for some me time...some very overdue me time. I haven't been the healthiest this semester, nor relaxed, nor stress free, and this might be my saving grace. The search for enjoying me.

Let's Do This

So...here goes another attempt to blog. Not sure how faithful I'll remain to this page, but I always seem a little bit more put together when I take the time to write out my thoughts, however mindless they seem sometimes, and God only knows I could use a bit more stability to my life. I have no idea who will read this, nor do I care. So, I guess here's to the start of a new blog.
