got real hot today, but i did not notice due to the long shift at my new job at the tri-city country club as a buser.
***goal achieved!!!
-i officially am employed & working between 25 & 40 hours a week, just enough for me, & hopefully enough to get at least 3/5ths the way to my trip to London next summer!
***goal achieved!!!!
- I learned how to sew on the machine! I have made two v-neck shirts, three pillows & also discovered the wonderful craft of embroidery & how cute it can make clothes look!
***goal achieved!!!
- Bought two new books- The Brothers Karamazov & The Idiot, both by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. I started The Brothers Karamazov last week, & although it is slow at first I see great things to come (i hope)! I'm also reading Walden by Henry David Thoreau & absolutely adore it. It has changed & challenged some of my viewpoints about materialism & that is a great characteristic for a book to have. As well, I've started reading The Stranger by Albert Camus, it is a quick read & I'm not sure if I like it yet but I enjoy the protagonist's thought process, very unique.
***goal achieved!!!
-Deepening relationships for sure. Especially with my sister Kate, old friend Annie, & old friend Jeromy. Also I rekindled some old friendships who never thought i was going to see them again! very nice :]
***goal achieved!!!
-expanding my musical horizons! Got music from Bat for Lashes, Yeasayer, Atlas Sound, Frightened Rabbits, Last Shadow Puppets, Casiotone for the Painfully Lonely, as well as numerous other bands. Those are just the highlights, ones that stuck.
***goal achieved!!!
-writing to my friends with my typewriter a lot! already have four friends i am currently writing to. It is very fun & wonderful. Writing helps with my confidence in deepening relationships & asking questions that need to be asked...
& with that I leave you these quotes:
"I consider it a good rule for letter-writing to leave unmentioned what the recipient already knows, & instead tell him something new." Sigmund Freud
