Hobby

Hobbies are good. I think I need to find one and thrive in it. I mean I have lots of passions, but I am not devoted to anything that helps me destress too much. I love to write and take photographs, art. I love to study geography and learn, work. I love to help others and lead, challenge.

There are things in my life I have to do:
-go to college
-pay for college
-eat
-sleep
-drink
-have friends
-go to school

There are things in life I feel obligated to do:
-martial arts
-be a good family member
-follow society's codes
-class president
-go to Jewish school
-clean my room, do my chores

There are things I want to do:
-be more spiritual
-love and be loved
-create art
-party
-learn about everything
-Tikkun Olam, real help to the world
-sleep
-exercise enjoyably

I always lament about wanting to be okay. I think I may be okay. I guess I am not that bad of a guy. Maybe I aim to high with the people I seek. Well its time to move on. I have so much I want to do in my life. The happier I am with myself the more stuff I want to do. I am more organized now, more motivated, more excited, more balanced.

I just watched an interview with Rachel Flatt, the US Figure Skating gold medalist. She lives a ridiculously busy schedule like me, but on an international scale and still goes to high school. She's going through so many similar things to me: college apps, senior year, dreams, challenges. She wants to be a biomechanics major!? Not much of a fluff girl, if you ask me. There is inspiration in life. As long as we don't take the inspiration as something we must be and accept reality enough that we are grounded, then we won't even realize we are flying.

Life isn't easy. People aren't always the most understanding and kind creatures. Yet this world is fantastic beyond any measure. Life is fantastic beyond any measure. I can't even believe there are only three weeks until winter break!
