It's scary when you have to schedule a time to sleep.
It seems like I can't find time to do anything fun anymore. When I do have free time, I always use it to sleep, which seems like such a waste. I'm at a point right now where I've been going going going without a substantial break from it all. In fact, I think I'm so used to this high pace, school work steven schoolworksteven that when school is finally out of the picture it'll seem like I have more time. I know that all of my pre-work hobbies have pretty much dissolved over time (like piano and drawing and such), but I think I'm going to really dedicate myself to finding those things again once I graduate. Maybe I'll look into piano lessons again. Randomly, I'll sit down at the piano and try to play something. It's not a total mess, but the total lack of playing has certainly made an impact on my abilities. I would love to be able to retrain myself, and since I have the basic tools to do that, it seems like it might work out. I really want to have that back in my life. It seems like being so absorbed in school and work has made me forget about things that used to make me really happy, like playing music, or creating something. Not that I don't enjoy reading and writing...I feel like I've learned a lot in college--things that I think may or may not contribute to a high-paying career, but will definitely shape my character and help me grow as a person. One of my teachers at Highline (an old guy who looked like the stereotypical "scholar"), said that as college students, we should try to take as many literature and english classes as we could, and introductory classes of everything else. He was into the whole "self-teaching" philosophy of learning... Digression! Anyway, yeah, that's going to be one of my main goals in the coming year: regaining my piano/music hobbies.
