Things I've Been Doing



I've been doing yoga by this lady, Shiva Rea which is really intense and actually a huge work out. I highly recommend it if you don't feel too silly listening to her. It's actually really relaxing. I learned how to do some handstands today! It was crazy. But it was filmed in white sands national park in Nevada which is really awesome.

I also made some Asian dough nuts with my mom. They are quite delicious.

I am also burning new music well new music to me, but they include The Replacements - Hootenanny, She & Him - Volume one, and other stuff that I used to have.

HEY O!

I've decided that I want to work on making my personal blog cooler or more cool. Whatever. SO new layout and shizz! Fixed profile pic! New perspective. I have failed at my diet, but I'll just start in June! Yes. Because everything starts in June. I'd also like to ideally like to add more things to this blog like pictures, music, videos. So we'll see...
My current topic of discussion and conundrum.

As I start on my summer reading list, I often ponder whether to "waste" the time to reread a book I enjoy or to read another new book. I mean the list that I have is huge and there is always another book that I could be reading to expand my perspective/ point of view, but I can also attain my knowledge/ a different perspective by reading a book again. So I'm kind of conflicted on what I should do with my time. I mean I could be reading a book in general instead of wasting time pondering which book I should read, but do you know what I mean? What do I do? Well nonetheless I have started to read The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. It is quite lovely and it frustrates the hell out of me that I am unable to compose such beautiful sentences! Why am I unable to write?!

Things and Priorities

Ok when I feel like things are getting out of control in my life, I get this urge to rid of things. Ex. Stop smoking. If I can't control anything else then at least I'll have this one thing to have control over. So I was reflecting upon things and I made a list of things I want to stop doing or get rid in my life. I feel like I don't really need them in my life or I should probably refrain from doing them.
