Hey Guys,
I'm a little bored as of late. Because:
- All day, every day focusing on memorizing Chinese gets boring
This is a problem because:
- I am discovering how little work I can do to get by in this program
- It's substantially less than I previously thought
- This leads to more free time, which I spend bored and stressed because
- I don't feel like I should go out for adventures/projects/etc when I have homework that I could (should?) be doing and
- I work more efficiently when I have little to no free time so the little bit of absolutely-required homework I do have takes forever and
- The remaining "free" time stresses me out because I feel like I should be doing homework, which may or may not be the case.
Meaning today, I am bored and stressed. Ugh.
Possible Solutions:
- Take the newly-offered extracurricular "Chinese music" class. Not the ideal solution because from here, it looks to be just another class I will be forced to attend and/or be bored in. I will probably force myself to go to the first one and check it out though. Ugh.
- Explore Harbin. More difficult than you would think, though with weather warming up this has potential. Also, I should be doing homework.
- Chill with awesome people. Killing two birds with one stone, plans have been made to go walking with some cool kids in the near future.
- Drink heavily. Tipsy one-on-two class is not bad at all, but afterward I just want to sleep and typically this is not an option.
- Read / Watch movies. I need to find an English bookstore on the first front, and get some recommendations on the second. Anyone? Anyone?
- Start some drama. Too bad I really like all of the CET peeps, and only as friends. Typically I resort to facebook-flirting with people I probably ought not flirt with back at home, but even this method is rapidly losing its appeal. Siiiiigh. Suggestions?
Really though, I just ought to do my homework better. Someone motivate me.
Done complaining,
China-Cat

ReplyDeleteRead "the five people you meet in heaven" by Mitch Albom. It's quite a great story and fun to ponder the questions of life and meaning of those in our lives, and those we didnt even realize were IN our lives.
