I’ve developed a very definite obsession with 90210 (the old one.) I have Season 2 on DVD, but I constantly find myself searching for episodes on Youtube. I need to buy the rest of the seasons and have a marathon…some day, after the semester has ended.

It has come to my attention more and more that I have a serious problem in not being able to slow down. It’s true – my mind is CONSTANTLY spinning and thinking about a million things at once. I realize that many people face this challenge. However, I really and truly believe that my ‘condition’ or whatever you want to call it is worse in that it really inhibits me from focusing and concentrating on one thing. I HATE it. I feel like it really makes my work in school harder to do well because I’m constantly thinking about what I have to do for my other classes, how much I still need to learn in CS4, how frustrated it gets me, the fact that the semester is almost over, etc. GAH!

I really wish there was a magic potion or something to get me to block everything else out and just focus on what needs to get done right now. After all, the other stuff isn’t going anywhere and it will be there when I finish my current task at hand.

I bought boots yesterday, and for some reason that makes me feel like an adult:

I think I’ve just about passed the time in my life when I want to wear sneakers to everything. I really don’t anymore. I find myself rolling my eyes if I choose an outfit and I don’t have anything to wear with it except for sneakers.  I’m 27 years old –  I need to start looking like an adult! Plus, I feel better about myself when I put more time, thought and planning into my outfits. I think it’s mostly a matter of getting into the habit of not throwing together whatever happens to be easiest and most accessible at the time in the morning when I’m getting ready. How you feel about how you’re looking has such a tremendous impact on how your day goes, in my opinion.
