365 days. Let's do it.

I'm pretty lazy on updating this thing. I write when I feel like it, and preoccupy myself with other things when I don't. So see, this blog has some heavy competition concerning my precious time: books, video games, CDs, work, the internet.

There's just never enough time in the day. *sigh*

But really though, school is starting this week and I feel extra-lazy. I picked up Haruki Murakami's "What I Talk about When I Talk about Running" and I feel even lazier, to the point of uselessness. Here's a novelist who's a marathon runner, and he runs everyday! And the only thing I do daily is check my facebook. Oh, Rante. There's this girl from my high school that has this project where she takes a picture every single day! Can you believe it? Something to photograph, before you sleep every night.

I know there are a lot of things I need to work on. I need to run more. I find myself getting tired at times when before I wouldn't; I used to run a pretty decent mile, and now I can hardly jog! I need to work on my social skills. I'm getting better, but I'm hardly debonair. I need to work on my cooking, my study skills, my focus, my writing, my... life. GAH.

I'm going to try to concentrate on one thing at a time, and hope that everything else follows behind it. First I'm going to concentrate on writing better. So that's where this comes in. I'm going to write a post every single day. Some days I might write about what I had for dinner, or something cool I saw that day. Or other days I might just copy-paste stories or something I had to write for a class. Or even finish the posts I had been working on but still can't find the need to finish. I might just post any old blurb without the usually meticulous editing I've been trying to force myself to go through. But I'm going to write, and that's all that matters. It's training. Small, insignificant steps to make that one giant leap.

And like this post, a lot of it will be an attempt to sort through my mental baggage. Whoopee, let's go.
