Yes, I've just finished my first accelerated quarter at the Art Institute. Five and a half weeks instead of eleven, but twice as fast. Now I have three weeks off until the next quarter starts. That means more work at Starbucks. But it also means having more free time. Sadly, I've realized, it also means more time to be doing nothing.
Most of my time is being spent in front of TV watching movies and series that I'm not really interested in. Finally, these days I've been coming to my senses. TV and the programming of the many stations have been dictating my life. When will I go out to buy groceries? Usually after I’ve seen this episode of “Law and Order”, and maybe even after the next one.
When I find myself doing this day by day, that’s when I need to watch out and learn to just switch it off. I can’t lat this device, that’s now become an idol; dictate the pace of my life.
As I was telling Gina today, maybe I should go out more, like to the beach, maybe pick up surfing. Yeah, right… Surfing!
