'08

I guess it is fitting enough to write some of my ambitions, hopes, and fears for the upcoming year. Right now my highest ambition is to raise my GPA a little bit. I've got a little over a 3.2 but I really need to get a 3.5 or higher. I'm planning on working really hard to do better in the classes that I have this semester. I hope to have a little bit better social life this semester than I did last semester. I really have to make time to do more of the things that keep me cool. I have a tendency to put myself in situations where I just don't spend enough time with people. It's curious to me how many people I meet and willingly greet me in the street but I have to make a serious effort to be sure that when somethings going on I get a call. I wonder how forgettable I really am when out of sight. Whoever said that no man is an island was never an overweight college transfer. But I guess he meant that no man survives adrift, which I agree with. It's just harder sometimes to be part of something than to simply not be at all. I would hate for all of you adoring readers of mine are terribly concerned for my personal health but I promise there's nothing to concern yourself over. I am simply making observations. Is it possible to be a depressed Optimist?
