Life is good..NASCAR has started up again and March Madness will start up in a couple weeks. Granted that means that basketball will be over for the year but it's such a fun time:) Hopefully I'll do better with the bracket this year than last. God that was bad lol...but yeah, Daytona is today so I'll be watching that. Lots of homework due Wednesday; have I started it? A little bit but I so have to get started, but I don't know where to start. I actually had all these ideas going through my head while I was dosing off in bed but now don't remember them. What can you do I suppose..well I'm going to eat something and putter around. Talk to you all later.

Content..discontent?
Should it be hard to know if you're content or not? For the past couple days, I've been sort of half and half...I really don't know what I am. Yes, the decision to stay at school was made and that means recontracting for housing has to happen this week but for some reason, I feel like something is missing. No, I can't tell you what it is, but it's there....maybe it's just the time of year...I mean, usually something happens to make me antsy around now. This shouldn't be anything shocking to me, but it always surprises me. I want to be content with where I am and what I'm doing...is that too much to ask? Do you ever feel like you aren't doing enough? That you should be trying to do something that actually has importance or helps someone else? I can't lie, missionary or volunteer work still tugs at me every now and then and now is one of those times. I want to do something meaningful...I think that's part of the reason that Criminal Justice or Sociology appealed to me but when it comes down to it, I have no idea what I would do with either of those things. Americorp or Habitat for Humanity would be fun and so rewarding...a lot of work, but so rewarding. I know....school is important you're telling me...yes it is important, I agree. But isn't there more to life than just working, paying bills and making money? Shouldn't we try and make our lives meaningful? When I think about working for the rest of my life, it sounds so horrifying. Now that coul be because I don't know what I want to do lol but yeah:) Maybe I'll run away and join the circus..I am short afterall;)
