New Semester

I hadn’t realized it had been so many days since my last post…I suppose the aforementioned indolence completely took over. But either way, I’m finally writing again! (And hopefully will be able to better keep up with my posts since I’ll be on a slightly more structured school schedule). Today was largely uneventful. Yes, classes started back up, but nothing too amazing happened. I’m not sure what it is about the prospect of a new semester/school year, but it just makes me excited. I think of all the possibilities I could achieve within that given new time, and I just am always so excited. Reality will set in soon enough that it will be just another year (most likely without any kind of real magical occurrences)…yet, for the time being at least, the possibility is still open.

We all look for that ‘next chapter ’ (I apologize for the cliché) in which we will find true love, happiness, ourselves, money, our car keys…whatever we wish to find in our lives. Are  we really actively seeking these things? Who can say, but I do know that we use set time frames (like a semester) to help us to find/achieve whatever our goals may be. Motivation is driven by time crunches. However, let’s try not to wait until the very end of the semester to realize we haven’t taken the action we said we would. Today’s the day, carpe diem and all that… Let’s start this semester out on a high note As the Clock Ticks…
