Not Very Much of a Day

This song is amazing.

I will always support Anna Nalick! She's got an amazing voice, and my God, can the girl write songs!

*****

Because today is President's Day, my siblings and I had the day off. I would love days off if I wasn't so unproductive. For some reason, before I have a day off of school, I develop this idea that I will be able to somehow do the things I've been putting off for weeks. It's an entire day, I think. That's time to do everything I need to do.

It would be ample time if I didn't choose to lie in bed or futz around all day. The most useful thing I did was read 40-50 pages in Dead Man Walking, which took me a lot longer than I thought it would. This book would be interesting if it wasn't so boring. What I mean by that is it's got an interesting storyline--it's about a nun who becomes spiritual adviser to men on death row. It's difficult to see how someone could read this book and still support the death penalty. It's good, but the writing itself can be confusing. The author drops in so many names and facts that I get really lost in.

I tried to commit my energy today to a workday...of course that's a really nerdy thing to do, to devote my day off to reading and scholarship applications. But it's all stuff that needs to be done, and my options today were work, or do nothing. Unfortunately, I chose to do nothing, drinking an unhealthy amount of Diet Coke in the process. Now it's all gone and I really want it. It's like a drug!

I also watched Monster-In-Law. The best thing about this movie is that Jennifer Lopez is absolutely gorgeous. (It's not fair that hair in the movies can always be so perfect.) The movie itself wasn't the best, but it was interesting enough to keep me in bed till noon today.

I can't think of anything I should write about. That's a sure sign that I should leave.

Until another time, dear readers.
