So. Much. To. Do...

Where do you find time to accomplish everything you need to in such a short amount of time! I feel like I'd have to be awake for the full 24 hours a day in order to finish everything I need to.

College Applications, essays, homework, studying, volunteering, actually being at school, babysitting, band performances and pep band, and HAVING A SOCIAL LIFE.

When I have so much to do, I become paralyzed and do NOTHING and get NOTHING done. It's a weird train of thought:

I have so much to do. I am so stressed. I am already tired before I have begun. I need a break. *watches tv* FREAKS OUT. WHY AM I WATCHING TV? I NEED TO WORK. But....I have so much to do. I am so stressed I am already tired....

Cycle. It is a cycle. Cyclic. cdk (AP Biology anyone?)

P.S. Not that anyone is really interested, but I haven't been posting mainly because of College Applications. Are they as much of a pain in other countries as they are in the US? I've been working like crazy on supplements (essays, creative pieces, video applications). Dang, son.

Lemon.

Kindle.

This is all I want for Christmas!

I'm Thankful For...

I'm thankful for still being a kid, being able to live under my parents' roof, the ability to never be hungry or cold. I'm thankful for having three pairs of plush socks in the winter, friends that will drive through the Seattle version of a blizzard to help me on my apps, a dog that barks with glee every time I come home.

Most of all, I'm thankful that there is a day to give thanks, because it gives everyone an excuse to be sappy and sentimental and together.

Here is a haiku:

What a graceful bird,

In my stomach he will go,

Gobble, gobble. Yum.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Snow in Seattle...

Snow in Seattle already? Okay sure, it's like an inch of snow. But that is enough to close school for the day. Here's hoping I get an extra day to work on college apps tomorrow!
