Yes, I’m well aware that we’re over a week into the new year, but I still wish you the very best. How many of you have kept your resolutions so far? I haven’t, but then again I was too lazy to make any resolutions this year.
I do apologize for my absence, but I’m not about to promise it won’t happen again. I’d like to think it won’t, but we’ll see how I behave WordPress-wise.
Since I last posted, I’ve continued work and school. I love some of the things I’m studying, some are tedious, and my job has its good points and bad points. I’d go into more details, but I can’t. That’s the biggest reason why this blog fell apart. I usually post when I have a lot on my mind, when I have stresses or joys that I want to share with you. When I can’t do that without risking my job, I get writer’s block. Not that I haven’t been writing, I just haven’t been writing here or anywhere about work.
I also haven’t read for fun as much as I would like, but recently I’ve been reading a book by Dr. Sax called “Girls on the Edge.” It’s about the struggles modern girls face due to cyber-bullying, environmental toxins, and society’s push for girls to develop a sexual identity earlier in life. His insights explained some of the things I went through in high school, particularly why high school girls lash out at each other in more passive-aggressive ways than boys do. It’s a great read, and regardless of your politcal sway, you’ll find it fascinating.
The bits about toxins in sodas and processed foods scared me. Makes me want to give up on my buddy Diet Dr. Pepper. Hmm…
What say you? How have you been?
