Lincoln
I just started watching a 3-hour documentary on the History Channel about the life of Lincoln, because...
1.) I've been fascinated by his problems with depression since reading David Herbert Donald's biography.
2.) I want to know if Gore Vidal is going to broach the gay issue.
3.) I love to learn.
4.) I'm avoiding finishing my physics homework.
5.) I'm avoiding finishing my organic chemistry homework.
Okay. So I guess I can't really claim that #3 is true.
Physics is actually interesting (we're studying electricity). But that doesn't help. I just can't get myself to do it.
Classes started last week and I just can't get myself to do anything. I've even started running again just to avoid work. I'd rather run 5 miles than do 45 minutes of organic chemistry. I think part of the problem is that so much is going to happen this semester (because I have to start my med school applications) that I feel intimidated.
But I want to be an active person -- not a passive person.
I want to be someone who can get stuff done -- not someone who sits around watching reruns of The Tyra Banks Show on TiVO. (That episode where she officially ended her modeling career was E-M-B-A-R-R-A-S-S-I-N-G. She actually had a pair of Victoria's Secret angel wings hoisted into the air, signifying her "hanging up her wings." Oy.).
Okay so I just have to do it. I just have to do it. I'm gonna go do it now.
UPDATE: An hour later now. I still haven't done anything. But now I'm getting to work. Right now.
