A Meditation on the 2011-2012 School Year

SERIOUS NOTE TO SELF: take care of your health. Quit caffeine (it makes you more prone to panic attacks). Eat healthier (less meat=good for the heart). Do cardio, as it may help to get rid of your adult asthma. Here's a thought: sleep a decent hour.  On a more inspirational note... Start giving things your all... Go to all your classes. Remember the circumstances that got you where you are in the first place. Think about your family and what they are doing for you. And think about yourself. Live to be the best you. Be thankful. Keep faith. Have a good attitude. Ppl sense when there is something wrong, so be honest. Try to keep in touch with people better. Reply to texts. And please please please stop quitting stuff when things get hard. Do not give up so easily. Know that opportunities are just around the corner if you keep at it. Be consistent.  You've been good at meeting new people and building on relationships. Keep it up. School is going well. Stay interested. This is a BIG one, write more. Blog or journal. You think better when you write. Also, you've been improving musically. Be confident. Know that you are good at a lot of things.  You know you ought to read more. Also go your professors office hours.  Heres another BIG one, stop spending too much money. Save it instead. Also, it would be nice to make some headway on a job or an internship. Seriously look in to GRE prep classes. Stop procrastinating. In fact, put more shit on your plate. It'll get you going. Stick to a schedule.  Always clean up your own mess, no matter the situation. Take imitative. Think independently of others. Be reliant on yourself. Call mom, every other day. Don't get on Facebook as often. Make more music. Go to the beach. Perfect the handshake. Try not to be so awkward. Stop machine drying clothes that you know damn well will shrink. Drink less. Dance more. Be that person who add people on Facebook. Avoid starting  text message conversations with some variation "how are you" or "how's your day". Stay principled. Go to more open mics. Take more pictures. Compliment more people. Grow your hair out. Make more movies. Swear less.
