Cold
A ripple for every moment

Frigid sky scattered here and there. Shadows watch mountains who are not easily scared. Snowflakes fall as time stands still, while sun's warmth trembles under the treacherous chill. Depths run thin as the ice grows, and blue meets white in the blue shallow. Everything covered perfectly in a blanket, one that is cold and doesn't need to fake it.

Learning

Wave 727

Sunday

The 13th of November, 2005 at 09:37 PM

It seems as if I'm always in a constant state of learning. This weekend I learned how to play 500 (the card game). I may have learned it, but it doesn't mean I'm good at it.

I did not spend as much time learning my pathology notes. I'm almost done now, with 7 pages left to go over. However, I'm nowhere near done studying. So, I can't do anything tomorrow.... anything.

10:30 is when my brain shuts off, close enough. I'm too tired to do anything anymore.

I went shoe shopping. My previous pair of basketball shoes have a hole in the sole. The new ones felt good the one time I tried them. We'll see tuesday night how it goes. I'm starting to get my game back. I have more speed than anyone else there, I'm learning that I need to use that to my advantage. I can blow right by people. It's all about that quick first step, the rest is cake.

New Shoes

Today's message was on coveting, in other words, desire. I struggle more with desire than I will admit to, especially when it comes to relationships. Almost all of my good friends are in a strong relationship with someone. Hanging out is difficult. Large groups are worse, when everyone has someone... and I don't. Most of the times I don't let it bother me, but sometimes... it gets to me you know? Not only do I desire these things, but I like to be important too. I like being with people and meaning something to someone. I don't like sitting alone at nights, I don't like sitting by myself (although I've been known to do it). I'm just glad I had someone to sit next to me this morning, because hearing the word today would have been difficult by myself.

Up to 50 push-ups and 50 sit-ups a night. Going to make a pointless goal of 100 for the end of the year. If I didn't have goals, I would just sit in my basement and listen to music at night. We can't have that, so we are going to do something productive.

I have a long day tomorrow and more sleep to catch up on. I have a Medical Imaging rotation tomorrow, I'm excited about that. Until next time; if you have a poor hand, bid all you got. Better to go out the back door than not do anything at all!

Thanks Stef. :) They were on sale but weren’t that cheap. Hopefully they will last me awhile. I almost rolled my ankle in them today though. I am notorious for buying shoes that don’t support my ankles, but it will be fine. I’m happy.
