day something
So I’ve been terribly negligent about writing my daily happiness blog in my beloved tumblr, but I swear I’ve been keeping up with it in my moleskine. But I’m much too lazy to transcribe that over to the online world. Heh.
What’s made me happy on the grand scheme of things is that I’m finally getting the hang of things and I’m becoming confident about the future. My mother told me something the other day that rather surprised me. She told me that I’m set. When I asked her what that meant, she said I’ve reached a level of maturity and I guess know-how so that I can succeed in life. Whether I decide to go to law school or business school or even culinary school in Europe, she seems to think that I’m ready for anything that comes my way. It’s an excited and nerve-wracking thought.
Who knew maturity and responsibility would be coming so soon? I for one didn’t. Rather than lament the end of youth, which I refuse to believe or acknowledge, I’m going to look forward to the promise of the future (as corny as that sounds).
On a lighter note, I’ve been reading quite a few books recently. Down time at work is absolutely lovely.
- Fountainhead by Ayn Rand
- Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
- The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
- Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs
- Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith
- Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides
Currently reading The Last Dickens by Matthew Pearl and so far I like it better than Dante Club. I think after finishing this I’ll have the willpower to finally attack Atlas Shrugged. Wish me luck! (:
