Love is really nothing but a dream that keeps waking me. For all of my trying we still end up dying; how can it be?

Today's been a really reminiscent-y day. Not really a bad thing, just been looking back a lot. Sometimes these days are really hard on me. This one's so-so, but I've distracted myself anytime I've started to delve too deep. But still.

I haven't accomplished much school-wise today, but I do feel as though I'm getting more on track with the whole motivated/getting things done stuff. I'm a beast at getting stuff done if I feel the pressure. Yesterday I cranked out half of a care plan in one morning that I'd been putting off for almost three weeks. It's ridiculous when I think of it, of how long I could've had it done and how much less stress I would have had. But I think I am inherently a procrastinator and always will be; I was actually talking to one of my friends about that the other day.

Like I said, I have spent a fair amount of today looking back over my past. I have come up with some lessons that I have learned, from things that I have gone through and/or always seem to happen.

- People will always come in and out of my life. I'll not always deal with their leaving well, but I will have plenty of opportunity to practice.

- Just because people are geographically far away doesn't mean that they have to be far from me.

- Whenever I eat something with peanut butter, I will inevitably get it on my clothes. Every stinkin' time.

- Mistakes will happen, but how their repercussions affect my life depends entirely upon myself.

- Loving is hard. But it is worth it.

- I'll always have questions, but they won't always have answers. And that's okay - though it may not seem it at the time. Sometimes the point is simply in the asking.

- Food eaten with chopsticks is always more awesome than food eaten with a fork. Or a spoon. A spork is competition though.

- I'll never be who I was yesterday. But that's not a bad thing. And both sides of that lesson will always be hard to learn.

- Music, no matter how silly, cliche, or meaningful, will always hold a huge part of my life.

- I have an aversion to the idea of sleep. This isn't really a lesson, nor is it something that is really beneficial to my life, but it is something that has been a part of me since I was a small child (serious, that's verbatim from the rents). So I thought I'd include it. Especially since it's a large part of why I'm writing this now.

Okay so that's it for now. I'm obviously in a weird mood, but it's a good one. No worries. Heading home tomorrow morning to go with Stacie and Mom to pick up the wedding dress. Eek! Still freaks me out, but I'm really happy for her. Alrighty, I suppose I'll attempt this whole sleep idea. No promises.

Also, guessing game on the title. Anyone?
