Consumerism
I bought a 75-pack of Zyrtec from Costco today.
It’s funny how this brand of allergy medicine gives me a sense of reassurance, as if everything’s going to be okay now that I have a 3-month supply of it.

I miss using my Lomo camera. Too bad film costs $5 per roll and $15 to develop. Photography is an expensive hobby.

It’s a Lady Gaga dress!
Rushing
College is finite, but work isn’t.
Sometimes I wonder why I’m in such a big hurry to work so hard, when I’m going to graduate and no matter what, I’ll be working. Whether it’s at a great or a not-so-great company, the lifestyle will be something of the same - no more tests, no more school, no more living in an area densely populated with college students.
It’s hard to remember that, when all around me everybody is rushing, rushing, rushing to start their lives. Sometimes I get swept up in the franticness, worrying about doing an internship + club + 4 classes + social life and having no time in between. Keeping myself busy at every moment of every day.
Ever since I stopped pledging I’ve realized more and more that somewhere along the way of trying to do everything, I started to accomplish nothing. I was making decisions without really thinking them through, and instead getting caught up in the mindless thinking of a sheep who thinks they’re going in the right direction because they’re part of a moving flock.
I’m not saying that the direction I was moving in was a bad one; I’m still going in that direction, but at a slower pace now. I always figured that I would work myself to death for the 3 years until senior year, and then take senior year easy. I’ve come to realize that my ambitions and major requirements are too much for me to really be able to take it easy though.
At the end of the day, I’m starting to download tutorials again, and do things for myself again, so that’s a nice change. Throwback to the summer of 08.
This is the highest tumblarity I’ve ever had in my history of Tumblring. I can see how it can become a cycle for some people, with the fear of that number going down motivating them to keep posting. I’m going to try and avoid that by posting whenever I feel like it. Que sera sera.
Anyway, I think I’ll celebrate by taking a nice hot shower. Cheers!
Sad
I always feel really sad when you have a really good professor lecturing to a class of students who don’t care.
