Why is Break So Short?


It really isn't that short when you think about it, 3 weeks is a long time. However, I'm still working on reading only my third book, out of so many that I still want to read! I haven't watched all of the movies on my list of movies to watch, and I haven't gotten to see everyone that I want to see. So clearly, 3 weeks is a little too short. Especially when it comes right after the roughest quarter I've had at UCLA academically. I'm just not ready to jump into battle again in just one week. I haven't missed having an alarm clock wake me up early, the dining hall food that pretty much tastes the same to me now, or the insane amounts of exams with their very confusing curves. Why does time fly by so fast, when I need more of it?

Looking Through Old Photographs at 2:36 AM

I think I am naturally nocturnal and am only forced into "normal" sleep patterns by society. I mean why else is it so easy for me to stay up until 3 am, and why do I do my best work in the middle of the night? Sometimes I can't write at all unless I do it at nighttime. And, why else is it so difficult for me to get up in the mornings? Even when I go to sleep early, I still have trouble getting up for those 8 am classes (which I've learned to try to avoid from now on).
Anyway, in my sleepless daze I was looking through some of my old photography, and this shot really caught my eye. It was taken through a moving car window, which made it blur. I think I was just randomly snapping photos to pass the time in the car, and somehow got this shot which has a non-random quality to it. Simply put, I like it.
