Just taking a two minute break before I go back for more learning. I was talking to bern about being finished with finals soon. And then.

And then i remembered the blog entry that Christian wrote about "the end". It's no longer online, otherwise i would link it, but the gist of it was that most everyone lives life working towards the little speed bumps. Cruising and then slowing down and getting past an obstacle and cruising again. "When i finish my finals, i can start doing the fun stuff again. When i finally get that raise, i can go and do X, Y, and Z. As soon as I pay off the car, i can work on doing T, U, and V."

I try not to live that way. I try to make sure that i'm not living in the waiting room, wishing i was somewhere else or waiting for my turn. Once in a while, or perhaps most of the time, school makes that difficult to do. I try to make adventures out of my weekends, and yet I haven't learned to really let go of my Freshman self.

I'm trying to take more risks. How funny. Studying less = taking risks. uy-vey.
