I've slept in three different places in the last cluster of hours, and the fused periods of waking and rest have distorted my flow of time, and I am a little lost as to when I am. I feel as if days upon days have passed, some of which I recall actual events from the short periods in which I was awake, moving from one spot to another and the other tasks entailed, and then the false days that took place in my dream world, ties of events that could likely have happened but most likely never came to be. Now, here I am, finally grasping a sense of it all, and I was mounted with concerns about what I had missed. Days of work? Classes? Chances to see friends? Interestingly, missing my daily blogging is what stuck out to me the most. I think I've missed it twice for far, but I would like to think that Saturday didn't count because I was only 17 or so minutes late. My little brother has been sick and asleep in my room, and I used that as excuse to not come in and do things that I needed to do on the computer, though I could very well have set up one of the laptops in the other room, which some difficulty. I eventually did this at a friend's request, but in any event I should not have let something stand in my way. Returned I have and a short synopsis of the previous day is what I bear.
Monday marked my return to college from the winter break, which I felt was both too long and too short. I feel that I have too little to show for the amount of time that passed, but on the up side I did see friends and family that I hadn't seen in quite some time, and that does always have a nice appeal. The time for that is now passed, though, and I plan to make some serious moves in fields that I have neglected for far too long. My day flowed smoothly and I feel that I will enjoy all of my classes well. Saldy, all of the familiar faces are packed into a single class, which will hopefully open opportunities to meet new people in the others, but I doubt it. Friends are a lot easier to make when you are stretching your fingers across your existing social network as opposed to forging all new attractions from nothing. Still, that's no reason not to try.
I don't think I cooked nor really ate much of anything yesterday, which is both bad for my general happiness and well being. I didn't really care at the time, but in retrospect, I regret it. I spent most of the evening playing an old Playstation 2 game, Okami, which I expected to beat. The game sort of tricks you, though, and right when you kill the monster that you feel would be boss of the game, it laughs and tells you that you're only getting started. I guess that's a good thing, though, as people tend to want longer games these days. I just wanted a good story and enjoyable gameplay. Maybe I do have a desire for things to end fairly quickly, now that I think about it. I tend to think I'm close to the end of games when I'm about half way through them, and I wonder if that's intention on the game maker's part, or a flaw in my personality that doesn't want to do the same thing for far too long. I suppose the solution there is to swap in up, in which case I have many other things to do. I need to get back to work, for instance, and make something of the remainder of this day, once I make sense of when and where I am, stammering through the neather.
