things don't seem so great lately and i'm thinking that things have got to improve. i've never been one for new year's resolutions or set goals and write them down to read X months from now. but now i'm thinking that maybe these are good things. or maybe it'll be at least a little interesting. maybe i'll start drafting out what i want to achieve and possible avenues to get there and work on that. while at the same time have this other set of things i'd like to do by a certain date, write it up, and seal it read after said date. i've heard that some people do this. if i had done this when i was in elementary school and high school, it would be interesting to read now and see what i have done, what i have not done yet, and what i am no longer interested in doing. then there are the people who feel pressured about turning 30. maybe i should make a list of things i would like to do before turning 30. the bottom line is that i should just get busy doing something so that i'm too busy to think these sort of things.
