wordsssssssssssssss.

It's been a very long time since I've written in here. Since I've written anything personal. I started college and I got stuck in this lazy pattern of doing my work, watching tv and sleeping. I need to change. So my early New Years Resolutions are the following:
1. I need to start reading books again.
2. I need to read the news.
3. I need to sleep less.
4. I need to write more.
5. I need to get out more.
6. I need to get involved.
7. I need to practice.
8. I need to speak in german.

I never finished the last book I started, this depresses me. I started a new one, "Sixty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong". The French people are crazy. If I could read a book like this about all the countries I like, I wouldn't even have to go there to understand the way they live. It's amazing, and shocking. The french are weird. I need to finish that, and get back to my other book.

I really don't know that much of what's going on in the world. I know the big thing like the economy is a piece of shit, but I need to know some details. For my own good at least. My building has some free newspapers in the morning, I'm definitely going to take them everyday now.

It's winter, which means its cold, and I like to sleep when I'm cold. Or, being cold makes me really tired, or being tired makes me really cold. Either way, I've been crawling into my terribly warm and comfortable bed too often during the day. I'll go to bed earlier, drink some coffee and be fucking productive. Doesn't mean I can't relax.

This feels good to write even though I know you are the only one reading it. :)

I'm in fucking DC. The museums are free, I'm going to put up with the cold and spend some afternoons there.

I miss little kids. I want to like baby sit or something.

I haven't touched my viola except once. I might go try to play Christmas music on the sidewalks and try to make some money. Haha. oh boy.

It'd be really neat if I could live in Germany with Alex. Whether or not that happens, I love my roots and I really want to pick up German again, Not that I've lost it completely, but practice makes perfect, and I haven't spoken a word of German in a month. I want to speak it like I speak English.

Last but not least, I know I'm not fat, but I'm not in shape. I want to change this. I complain about having so much free time, I can keep myself occupied on the treadmill for ten minutes or something. and no more chips.

anyway, I'm listening to that silly Barack Obama song that came out during the campaign, "yes we can". It gives me the chills.
