I always have a lot of ideas  April 28th

However, I don’t always act on them, and they don’t always come to fruition how I planned. I have thoughts and plans but sometimes I can’t get them out of my head and into real life. Do you ever feel that way? I feel like I have all of these good things to offer and smart plans that I never act on. I don’t know what’s holding me back. Maybe it’s a lack of motivation? Or is the distraction of Facebook and F My Life just an easier way to pass the time?

Now that the semester is winding down, I will have a lot of free time on my hands. I want to do all of the things I say I will. I don’t plan on working this summer (not because I’m a bum… or maybe I am), so I definitely want to be productive in other ways. Aside from my decorating projects for next year’s living situation, there are so many other things I could do with my time. For one thing, this place definitely needs a new theme. How long have these clouds been up? It’s not even really… me, in terms of color, that is. The cloud idea is nice and dreamy, I suppose, but blue and white is getting old and boring.

What else can I do? Well, there are a ton of books I’ve been meaning to read, and I really want to get back on the writing end of things. I remember when I used to write poetry constantly. Not only did I have something to produce and share, but I was more productive overall. I did a lot of work and I performed really well at everything I needed to do. I think it was a way to release in a positive way, as opposed to the things I do now that just make me lazier: Facebook Facebook Facebook. It’s strangely addicting, even if I still hate the new layout.

What are your plans to do this summer… whenever it gets here for you?
