Certainty that I have chosen the right career.

Heck, I even enjoy doing the generally boring bits too. There is such a wide variety of things to do that I am almost never bored with it either. Variety is one of its finer qualities, I would even say. And there is always so much thinking to be done, too. The options are endless and cool!

Getting back into the swing of things.

School is a wonderful, challenging, fun place in ways that are basically not found in other areas of life. I am now coming down to the last five or so months of my current plans for college and I do believe I will miss the experience quite a bit once I am done. Sure, work in my chosen career will be a whole new set of wonderful, fun challenges but work is work, and school is something else. I am a blessed fellow, I must admit!

Motivated by awkwardness.

I attended the family ward, as a member of it, for the first time in quite a while... basically since 1998 or 1997. Not that the length of the time away from the ward has somehow made the experience strange to me, more that I have returned to it without feeling like there is a place for me there. The people were all quite nice to me, very welcoming in fact, but I think I need to have some sort of attitude adjustment in order for me to feel at home there. I am not sure how that will come about.

Anyway, in an unexpected way, it makes me want to actually go on dates and try harder to find a wife. I am sure this is a good side effect of my discomfort there. It isn't what I thought even could happen as it feels somewhat unrelated... but I really do want to go on dates with more invested energy than I can recall feeling motivated to do so in quite some time. Weird! It could also be that a certain single someone(who I am still attracted to, also somewhat unexpectedly) is now back in town and, even though I don't have the feelings for her that I once had, she is still very attractive to me. I suppose I need to at least make a good effort to get shot down. A little crash and burn is often good for the system. Ha.

Work change considerations.

I have to say, the possibility of changing my work situation by becoming a supervisor has been a very challenging decision to make. It seems like a no-brainer at a quick glance but there are really a good deal of future implications I am taking into consideration on this. What does it do for my future career in film/video production? That is my primary goal so all of the seemingly obvious benefits that would come right now might have undesirable effects further down the line. It's a tough one for sure!

Sleeping in the car.

It might be surprising how restful the sleep can be sometimes... though, last night was not exactly one of those times. I think I mostly dreamt about my job(which is pretty rare for me otherwise) and I can't say that was the kind of thing I wanted to be doing in my dreams last night. Meh. Either way I am really looking forward to my bed tonight. It is a wondrous place!

Another day 1.

I've seen a bunch of new years in my time.... 36 to be exact(I doubt I really remember much of the first few or so.) I was a bit against new years resolutions for a number of years, mostly because I felt it was silly to use the beginning of a new year as an excuse to make changes in your life(as if I was making life changes on some sort of regular basis in the first place.) Anyway, I'm down with it now. Maybe just realize how lazy I can be sometimes and any help to make life changes is good in my book.

So I hope my next day 2 goes well... even better than the last ones and I'd be happy. I know work will be earlier but I doubt that will make much of a difference. Ha.

Bringing in a couple new/old resolutions.

I have a semi-relevant resolution that I feel like describing a little bit here. That would be the resolution to be more focused on the quality of my writing here on this blog. I've noticed the need for more humorous sorts of elements but I think there are many other ways I can improve what I do here. A big part of that will simply be dedicating some more time to it than I usually do. Time is always a premium to the quality of anything.

And so it begins... again. I have more resolutions(not many to be honest) that I could address here but now doesn't seem appropriate for that. It is well enough that this is a basic commitment to do what I am setting out to do. I hope all goes well for me and for you!(see what I did there?.. got me a little rhyming action goin' on. boom!)
