perhaps it really hasn’t struck me yet that i’m supposed to be a responsible person entering university. i don’t have to be, but it would be more beneficial.

it’s hard to be just that at times, responsible. especially when you’ve had years of practice for being a complete couch potato. if i were to divide my school years up into degrees of my own hard work, the pyramid would look something like this:

—- GRADE 12 —-
———- GRADE 11 ———-
—————- GRADE 10 —————-
———————- GRADE 09 ———————-
—————————- GRADE 08 —————————-


it seems funny to me that i’d slack off the most just when i needed the extra sprint of motivation. next year, i’m hoping, will be different. i realize it’s much too early to be making new years-esque resolutions, but i honestly wish to become more motivated for first year university. i know some people who are presently enrolled in post-secondary, be it UBC, UCLA, or yale, will think i’m wishing on a nonexistent star. i know it’s hard to be inspired to work on something that you’re not even sure will be your choice for a career. it’s hard. it’s tough. but i stand by my resolution.

now keeping to it will be a feat all on its own.
