I'm doing 31 things
I went to an English tutoring community center site. The lady was really weird and I didn’t like they way they ran their program. So today, I went to The Whitebird Clinic, a site that helps a lot of the down and outs. I don’t know what I’ll do there, I left a message for the volunteer coordinator. I’m also looking for a job at the moment, so my availability might be changing depending on the hours I’m required to work. I feel good for planting the seed though.

How I did it
It made me
Hell Yea! 
How I did it: I just tried to act confident, like I knew what the hell I was doing, when in reality, I don't. I'm a hard worker, and I know I'm a hard worker, I just had to convince the owner of the restaurant of that. She's giving me a shot cooking in her restaurant even though I don't have much cooking experience, which I really appreciate. So I'm working hard at making a good impression. I need to memorize the menu as quickly… Read how I did it…

I check my e-mail way too much. It’s depressing because I rarely even get e-mail from anyone important. Boo. Hoo.
I’ve made it known that I am writing a book, and making a documentary. I already wrote the freakin’ book. But I need to beef it up by roughly 40 pages. So I guess that means I didn’t write the book? Although it has all the chapters, the story reaches the end point, it’s over 100 pages single spaced.
I filmed the documentary, but I can’t start editing it until I get a computer screen. Just dropped 3Gs on a Mac Pro, the ferrari of all computers. Need to borrow someone’s cosco card so I can get a decent, cheap monitor for another 300 bones.
But I’ve been working on the book since last fall. 1 year, exactly. I sit down to work on it and I invariably end up on the internet, piddling around, checking my e-mail every thirty seconds.
In certain respects, I guess I’m not lazy, but I feel like someone who wasn’t lazy deep down in their core, at the center of their being, like I am, would have accomplished what I set out to accomplish in half the time.
Thankyou for listening. Good luck not being lazy, friends.
