APES Project

Stupid APES Energy Efficient House Project took Buck and me forever to finish! We literally worked on our house for 3 days straight at Buck's house. -_- And we spent so much money on it... Ours is the best though. ^0^ We measured so precisely and we ACTUALLY made furniture out of wood and painted them. I am actually pretty amazed at Buck's craft skills, since he made almost all of the furniture by himself when I went home. He also did all of the cutting and sawing... haha poor guy. He did all of the hard work.

Making that house was really enjoyable and frustrating at the same time though. I got really annoyed at it sometimes and cussed so much. XD My mom even said I cussed in my sleep. Hahaha! But we laughed a lot while we worked too. It's actually fun working with Buck, because we have a similar kind of humor and we're always making fun of each other. He takes jokes well, so I don't have to worry about offending him.

Anyway, even though we worked so hard on the house, it was still only 2 points of extra credit for the quarter... = = And I ended up failing my calculus test because I spent the whole time working on the house. But I don't regret doing it, since it's the best project that I ever made, so I feel that it was worth it.

Oh, Miraculous Life.

How incredible.

Suddenly something I had believed for a lifetime - however short - is false.

It feels unreal.

A dream.

And yet, I feel happier for it.

The love I had did not disappear.

Instead, it swelled, and I can begin to understand better.

Yes, I'm beginning to understand.

Thank you. So much. Words can't describe my gratefulness.

All I can say is...

Wow.

I love you.

New Year's Resolutions

Looks like time for another batch of New Year's Resolutions to forget about later. No, I really want to fulfill them this year. Maybe this is going to be the year.

1. Good time management
2. Waste less time (like right now)
3. Stick to my sleeping schedule
4. Work hard
5. Prioritize
6. Start work once I get home/Do not procrastinate

Short list, but really hard to do. But since this year I'll soon be an "official" adult, I better start acting like one. Last night I was thinking about how much time I've wasted in my life. I always think that I have all the time in the world to loiter and do nothing. Of course, such is not the case. I waste precious time by just posting on this blog that I don't let anybody read. So why do I do it?
