this morning started off kind of blah… dragging and couldn’t really wake up. been busy at work trying to get some drawings completed for an awards entry for the firm, which is due out next week. i was having to depend on an overdose of caffiene to keep me running up through lunch, even then it was still difficult to remain focused. have also had a lot on my mind… feeling like i’m approaching some defining turning point or change soon. just a feeling.
the afternoon was much of the same… much more difficult to stay awake. the tone changed dramatically once the end of the workday rolled around at 600p as we (the office) headed to a local outdoor bar for an evening of drinks and food as a going away event for two of the interns who are leaving to attend classes this semester. this was really something i have been needing lately… an opportunity to loosen up and actually be socialble, which if you know me doesn’t occur very often. then again, when can you not loosen up after some free drinks! this made me more aware of what i truly am missing by being such an introvert and by not living up my time here in new york during my last year as a student (well, undergrad).
maybe this is the first step in changing my attitude that has been flooding my thoughts as of late? not sure yet. i am still wading through the fog that has clouded my head, thoughts and perception for the last few months. what am i really hoping to reach in the end?

time is wierd to contemplate. it is one of these things in life we all wish we had more of but in certain ways we wish would go more quickly. as kids we couldn’t wait to “grow up” but as adults we don’t want time to progress… unless it is monday i assume. time as we think about time is nothing more than a man made notion ie clocks. we seem to be able to control time as we wish because of the acceptance or nonacceptance for daylight savings time. why is it some do it and others don’t. is it that important that we adjust our “clocks” or can it be what it is. why is it we can adjust time but that we cannot create more or less depending again if its monday or friday. interesting quotes i like em a lot.
Time is a strange concept. It seems to control our lives more than most of us would like. I believe that time is more valuable than money even though I don’t seem to have much of the latter anyway. Once the days of school and college are over, time seems to become virtually inexistent. There’s no such thing as “free time” anymore. While we’re not slaves to the office and the man paying our bills, we are also subjected to the lack of time we really have.
