I worry about him. I wish he would get better. I wish he could get better. I wish he WANTED to get better. I wish it was okay with him to ask for help.

He is in the place I was in a year and a half ago.

I wish I knew what to do. I feel so powerless to help him. Should I even be trying?

Resolutions… down the drain?

filed under ladyamedeus, personal, to do

Remember my 2006 New Year’s resolutions? Here’s an update.

overall
get out of debt (excepting college loans)… WORKING on it
work on 43 things (actually 17 things)….. WORKING on it
sign-up for and take the GRE………………. YES
apply to grad schools………………………….. NEXT semester

monthly
pay bills on time………………………………… YES, so far
apply for two scholarships………………….. HAH, yeah right

weekly
go to the gym twice or take two walks….. HAH, yeah right
do one creative writing prompt…………….. HAH, yeah right
write one poem………………………………….. HAH, yeah right

daily
check email only twice………………………… OFF and on
brush teeth and wash face……………………. OFF and on

So, I’m ditching the weekly resolutions and sticking to the overall and daily ones… plus the one about paying my bills.

The Letter Survey

This is how it works: Comment on this entry and I will give you a letter. Write ten words beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation what the word means to you and why, and then pass out letters to those who want to play along.

I got B from [info]mousapelli.

1. Bennett: the boyfriend.

2. Bunny: the sister, also known as [info]the_weirfox_gii.

3. Bobby: one of the best friends, also known as [info]zekor.

4. Bad girl: what I feel I am, especially when I look around at all the <.< …equipment… >.> in my room.

5. Beauty & the Beast: my favorite fairytale.

6. Waterbrothers: those people with whom I am most close, of which I have only four: Bunny, John, Nathan, and Bobby. See Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlin for an explanation of what a waterbrother is. [yes, I know that's sort of cheating. deal with it.]

7. Bishoujo: pretty girls in anime, often wearing skimpy clothing and providing fanservice every ten seconds.

8. Betterment of society: what I try to do everyday, even in small ways. I want to and like to help people.

9. BicĀ® pens: the key to every poor writer’s future.

10. Breakfast: which is whatever meal I eat after waking up, even if I wake up at 3 PM.

Anime Club was tonight. We watched Ghost in the Shell. I was happy.

Our yearbook photo was taken. Kim went home last weekend and was not in the picture.

Kim was not there. I was sad. I went back to my room lonely.
