on vacation

I've been on vacation, enjoying the holidays with family and friends for the past couple weeks (I've been off work since Dec. 24th) and until now that's meant I've also been on vacation from blogging. Granted, my blogging activity ain't what it used to be. Life can be overwhelming and recently I've let it get the best of me. I was so busy towards the end of the school quarter that I didn't have much time for anything besides school and work. This upsets me. This isn't what I want my life to be. This isn't the kind of balance I want. I love living "normal" life when I'm not at school or work and that's become very apparently during my time off. Even the boring, routine, simple things like grocery shopping, walking outside, or running to the post office are enjoyable. Maybe I have a whacked sense of what's fun but even doing errands I still like being out and about in the environment called the world.
