Yesterday is history, Tomorrow's a mystery, and Today's a gift, that's why they call it the present: The search to find what to do and how great I can get at what I love

Always with the Negativity
I'm watching Kelly's Heroes with my dad and a familiar thought comes into my mind. You have to be determined and think outside the box to find the valuable things. Sometimes you have to bring in the big guns, litterally and metaphorically in this case, and sometimes ya need some help from sopposed foes. Now I've only ever seen the ending 30 minutes but that's what I've gathered. My favorite character would have to be Oddball because he is the, you guessed it, odd sort of man. He's not like the other soldiers, he talks down negativity and doesn't care if somethings not the best there is (title), he talks in a funny way, and provides just the right amount of comedic relief. In the end, he did his job and helped everybody out but he got his tank, his reward. Keep in mind I haven't seen all of it but it's my dad's favorite movie so anything for some time together, plus the ending song rocks. One day I have to get around to seeing all of the classics
"Easy enought but I need an idea"
While going on what is sure to be my 95th hour of TV in the last 10 or 11 days, I find myself becoming more sluggish and exhausted. I sleep nearly 10 hours each night just to trudge down 13 stairs and plopping down on the couch only to remain there like a potato. I need a project. The owl side in me is slowly settling down but I'm getting bored easily. I need a project to occupy my time and feel accomplished for the rest of the summer. While Top Gun, "Great Balls of Fire," and Project Runway don't get old, I need an idea. What to do

Smiling like an Idiot
As days continue, I find myself thinking more and more about what great people I've met this summer in New York and all of the amazing things I've learned that I'll carry with me as I travel throughout my career and many explorations. I often see myself smiling like an idiot looking back on all of our memories, silly jokes, and sticky notes on the dorm room wall. I wouldn't be headed anywhere with out those people and it's unbelievable how much I believe in myself and how positive those 10 short days made me feel. I will thank each and every one of them in my future acceptance speeches. Confident not cocky
Lost in the World
I'm a very indecisive person so I'm having trouble deciding what to write about. I could take the Julie - Julia route and set a goal to cook my way through a year. I could take the "Zuck on it" path like Mark Zuckerberg and write angrily as I hack web pages. I could stay on one topic or jump all over the place. I want to write about something I'm passionate about and something that I could ramble on and on for hours about. However, I don't have the faintest idea what to say or how to feel about this blank compose box. There's so much I haven't experienced and haven't seen. I'm bored fairly easily and need to bust out and get going.
When somebody once asked me on a scale of one to ten how smart I thought I was, I said 7. I now know that I'm at 1 and I have so much farther to go and I'm, under no condition, going to stop until I'm happy and I know who I am and I can't wait to start learning and living. It sounds, as it often does, very cliche and sappy but it just might be the truth.
I still don't have a clue what to write about and this is my third post, though the other two have been deleted. Perhaps I'll find a topic later on while exploring
