Hmm..Conundrum

I, yet again, find that when a girl likes me I end up not liking her. Then, once I realize that I do like her I have pushed her too far away and have screwed myself over.

This one though, I'm just going to be an adult about her and just say, "Oh well," and be a good friend and ask for nothing more. There are a lot more girls out there.

Sorry about being an ass to you after that party.

I feel as though I have been ignoring you.

Perhaps that is because I have been cheating on you; I have been writing in my journal I keep with me.
I've started it now that I'm going to college. A simple way to just write each day, almost every day and not worry about it.

It's better that way.
I'll attempt, no-I will write more often on here as well.
University tomorrow, dorm, pack...move..pain...agony...haha...sarcasm...facetious..
Salam Alaykum,
Jared

Today is a New Day

February 1st. My application to U of Iowa is supposed to be completed today..... Will it be?

I hope so. HAHA!

Otherwise I had a wonderful night with Tori last night? a few hours ago. We have decided to be exclusive. I'm doing something I normally don't, but I want to give it a chance and I like her. She's different. She's smart, funny, weird sometimes, goofy, sexy, attractive, fit, and just all around fun. I love that she works out. I don't know why, but I do.

Movies movies movies

I recently watched Taken, Gran Torino, and Slumdog Millionaire. All three of them are amazingly good. Spectacular in fact. Also, I watched Defiance and Valkyrie. While these aren't as good as the former three, if they had come out at another time I would be saying the same thing.

I next need to watch the Curious Case of Benjamin Button and The Wrestler. However, I have yet to do that.

I just figured I would let who ever reads this know. That those are five movies they shoudl DEFINITELY watch.

Cheers.

A Deck of Cards and a Year's Worth of Goals

So, in an effort to actually change myself for the better. Rather then make some unrealistic goal that I won't ever actually do, I decided to write as many goals or things I want to aspire to on a deck of cards. Anything and everything I could think of went down. Here are those goals.

These are my goals for the the year...my lifestyle ones aren't one I expect myself to just suddenly do, but ones that I will work towards the whole year.

I said

That I would post my goals up today, but I have to wait till later tonight.

For some reason I just felt like writing right now.

I'm kind of swamped with school, but I don't even notice it; I probably will put it off until the last minute.

I have to work on my research paper. This is the most important. The other things I can wait till tomorrow or days after or in school to work on them. However, my research paper and my applications are what I must do before I do ANYTHING else.

So, here's to working out and then coming home and doing school work.

Just a Little Update

I finally finished the Walking Drum by Louis L'Amour. I don't know why it took me so long, I loved the book and couldn't put it down, but it took forever to finish.

Definitely a must read.

I wrote out 54 goals for myself for this year.
On a deck of cards.
As I complete one I will burn it and hopefully it has become a part of my life and not just something I did once.

A lot of the goals aren't ones that I can burn off until the next year. Such as lifestyle, habitual goals.

I'll post them all up tomorrow or as soon as possible.

2009 is so Fine

2008 was great, but 2009 will be fine!

So, for the first time in a LOOONG time I got drunk last night. It wasn't the belligerent drunk. Just the damn I feel good drunk. Over at that one place

Now on to the HATT Scavenger Hunt and I'm kind of nervous slash excited for it.
