Dog Days of Summer

Wow it feels like I've done nothing this summer, yet I find myself not having any time. How does this happen?

I work at a nonprofit agency three days a week for four hours. In fact, I'm here right now, as you can see, working very hard. I have a lot of time to blog but have not had the motivation to do it.

Right now I'm listening to Catalan music on grooveshark.com whilst my personal statement for law school is open on Microsoft Word. Except I'm not really working on my personal statement either. I had every intention of coming here and battling through it, but I'm stuck...and to add to that I forgot my notes with all my "brainstorming possibilites." Normally I would continue to write anyway but I know what I want to say in the statement and I have it all written down on my "brainstorming possibilities sheet" (yes, the paper itself is labeled that) which, unfortunately, resides on my desk in my room most likely being toasted by one of my cats asses right now (they love to sit on my desk).

Seriously, the woes of trying to write well are, well, quite trying.

Thus, I decided to resort to some bad writing and post it on my blog. But whatever, bad writing and bad art, they all still come from the heart. It's just that bad writing is less excusable. I mean, it's not your fault that when you draw bunny rabbits they turn out as demented squirrels. This should not stop you from drawing if you like it so much. You draw those demented squirrels the best way you know how (at least that's what my mom always told me)! Bad writing, on the other hand, is just disgusting. No explanation needed.

Okay well wish me luck with my stagnant personal statement and very busy summer days!

Would anyone like to join me for a coffee? I could go for this cortado right about now...

1. I feel the same way. I'm so bored and have nothing to do, and yet I have no time for anything!

2. I could go for some coffee. Wish I could teleport.
