I'm very thankful for this break. It was just what I needed. I only wish it was longer. But I'm glad I got to spend quality time with my family, eat lots of yummy food, including a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with Christian's family, visit my grandma, have breakfast with Pauline, get coffee with Faith, see Scott with Christian, get some sleep, do my laundry, and even work on my apps. I want more time at home!! Walnut Creek is nice :) Can't wait for winter break!!

I don't want to go back to Berkeley tomorrow...back to real life. Blecch.

Oh, note to self: watch Pushing Daisies.

Another one down...yay!...but 10 more to go. Le sigh. Looking forward to winter break. I don't want to be a hermit anymore.

02 November 2007

I'm tired of treading on thin ice, tiptoeing quietly in the night. Trying not to offend, then losing my temper. Hiding tears and suffocation; I can't please everyone. I shouldn't second guess myself any longer, but I don't want to be selfish either. I think too much about what I want, what I want to be, what I want to do. And maybe I don't even know what I want anymore, maybe I don't know who me is. I think I try to listen to too many voices, until I lose my own voice among the chaos. And the thing is, I can't just listen to myself. I don't know anything. Where is God.

Maybe I should just be happy with myself, with everything I have, with everything I've been given. I can't be everything. "Just embrace who you are." Oh, jealousy. Wanting to be perfect all-around. But sometimes you can't have all the personality types rolled into one. Focus.

I feel like I'm always struggling with the same thing. Which makes me wonder if I've even grown at all.
