That's really what I've been doing for a while, nothing. I just got back from the gym (yes, at 3:30 in the morning) where I must have no ability to work the showers there because it was freezing! I just sucked it up and cleaned up anyway because I didn't want to wake up my mom if I showered at home. I took my iPad to the gym too so I could watch some music videos while doing the elliptical. I watched Mika's We Are Golden video over and over again and it really inspired me (not that me being inspired is uncommon, it happens fairly often and it's not really a big deal). Just watching that video made me realize that I haven't gotten all that excited about anything lately (I guess I should link it right? I don't know how to do that in this application...).
I got really excited about a month ago when I decided that I wanted to work in any field related to space. I don't know what to do to get into that field and I don't know anybody who is already working in that so I've been pretty much floundering since I made the decision.
I then made the mistake of joining Pintrest and I got sucked into that hell hole. I have spent so much time on that stupid website instead of really getting stuff done. I have though accomplished some things thanks to Pintrest. My bed frame now looks nicely refinished and my head lights are super shiny. Two things that are completely useless to me. I still don't have a job or any idea how I'm going to get into the career field that I want.
I thought about getting a job as a technical writer but then you need experience to get into doing that and of course I don't have any of the experience that they want. Does it count that I have written both my website and my grandfather's website, and this blog, and a published article, and everything on my Etsy, and years of creative writing on top of years of school papers? I don't know, if anyone out there is looking for a technical writer, let me know if that counts and maybe give me a job too.
I got inspiration from this shitty email about writing that I get like three times a day about entering a writing contest (I told you that it isn't uncommon). So now I'm trying to polish up one of my short stories so I could enter it in a contest that will cost me fifteen bucks or so and I won't win anything. I think that might have been part of the reason for writing this blog tonight, I've been thinking about how I haven't been writing.
I actually haven't been writing or reading or drawing or painting lately. All of those things are really an escape for me and there hasn't been anything to escape from recently. My life is super cushy and I love it but I need a bit more stress to really make myself feel inspired.
I guess I could post some writing on here if I can't think of anything else. I certainly have enough of that on my computer to make a few posts out of.
Alright, I think I need to go to sleep now that I've gotten something down on here. I feel really good tonight. I'm blaming Mika for that. Thank you for that, sir.
