Event Horizon

Well, I passed my driving test (barely). I wasn't too nervous going into it, but I got a little shaken when I made a couple of early mistakes. I finished up decent enough to pass though. I don't think it'll take me too long to be pretty comfortable with driving, as long as I do it often enough. it's weird finally getting it done, when it's been one of these things hanging over my head for the longest time. Hopefully I'll be getting a car soon.

It has been getting so damn hot. I prefer the winter to the summer... but then, I've never lived in Siberia. Hopefully, I'll drop a few pounds. I wanted to start an exercise routine, but I suck at stuff like that. It's very difficult for me to maintain good habits. Hopefully I'll be able to keep up this blog. I've found that it's extremely useful and interesting to have some kind of record of what was going on one particular day. It's quite remarkable how much a person will forget about their life.

So my family has developed this odd habit of watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune every night. It's weird. I've always enjoyed watching Jeopardy (even though I don't really care for Alex Trebek) but it's strange. It's beginning to feel like living in an old folks home. I have found I'm pretty good at Jeopardy though. But I hate when theres a question that I know was covered in a class I've taken, but I can't remember it. I don't really like wheel of fortune at all, especially because the simpsons is on at the same time. Actually, I guess Wheel of Fortune is like the Bizarro Jeopardy. I actually do like Pat Sajak but I hate everything else. Pat has shat his nice guy image and is a snarky old fuck now. I love his smartass little quips. Also, his toupee is pretty damn terrible. Pat is the shows saving grace. That and seeing people land on Bankrupt.

Have you ever really stepped outside yourself to visualize what kind of person you are? I've always sort of seen myself as the quiet type, even shy. Also, a romantic type of person. A lot of the time, I think I come across that way online too. (In journals or on chat... or text in general). Though I am those things, my self in my daily life is quite different. I'm not a quiet person when I'm comfortable with the people I'm with. I suppose it all differs. I am all those things I said, just not all the time. I think it's important to know exactly who you are and what you want.
