Dear Diary,
I've noticed that when I check my e-mail, I just write all of the important stuff on sticky notes and delete the rest. It's not really accomplishing anything, just moving information around. I used to have too many e-mails now I have too many sticky notes. is this what being a grownup is like?
The library environment can be incredibly under-stimulating. I guess that's what it takes-- absolutely nothing interesting going on whatsoever-- for me to study. But often, I drag myself all the way down there, sit down, get out my books, and just end up drawing families of animals in the margins of my notebooks and leafing through the pictures in whatever library book was left on my table. I have mastered the science of "playing quietly" about 15 years too late.
You know what is great about finally being 20? I can use the phrase "Why, it's been 20 years since I've ... been breast fed, learned to hold up my own head, eaten mashed carrots. as time goes on, I will have more to add to this category.
Love,
Diana
