hobbies

i feel like i need more hobbies in my life. so, i'm going to brainstorm some hobbies, sleep on the list, and make a choice.

i could...

use this blog to write film reviews so i could be like this guy some day:



and at the same time i could actually be writing things that i might have to revise before posting. how weird would that be??

i already do quite a bit of reading, but maybe i could read this religiously:



and find some cool books not in the 19C. and then i could tell you about it on this blog and corrupt young gradstudent minds like octavia dreamed the other night.


i could ride this:


and then do triathalons, because i have always wanted to. except for that i need a bike first, but whatever. details.


i could... (i'm not posting more pics, but you get the idea)

*find recipes and prepare cool food
*get a calligraphy for dummies book and give it a try (always wanted to do this one, too)
*take up welsh again. (ok, this one needs a pic)
*i could learn to quilt (something else i've always wanted to do. i LOVE quilts)
*i could learn to draw (ditto)
*i could explore all the parks in south carolina

out of creative juices. and i need to go read.

will sleep on it (eventually) and let you know.

a new all-time low

ok, probably not really. i think i've been lower than this before. but still. i need to go work out. but i really have no motivation to do so. or to do anything, apparently, for that matter. i almost don't have enough motivation to post this post. but i am going to do it.

and somehow, i'm going to boost my motivation. i'm tired of living in the nothing. get me out of here. so, i think in order to break through the nothing i'm going to have to start doing daring things. so watch out.
