my jackson pollock of thoughts.

I hope you understand the title.
It's because Jackson Pollock did splatter paint, and now I'm just going to vomit everything I've been thinking.
Sorry for that mental image.

I've feel like I've been doing these talk-about-anything posts more often.
Probably because there's no school, so naturally I haven't been thinking as much as I normally do.
And a side effect of that loss of thinking, is I'm less motivated to do anything.

Summer's been nice because I've been lazy.
Get up, eat, and then go to swim practice. Get home, eat some more and then go to bed.

I've been reading a lot.
As in sitting in my chair and not moving for a couple hours. Except to turn the pages.
But I wouldn't classify that under "movement".

I finished Room yesterday. 
It was probably the most unique book that I've ever read.
Mainly because the narrator is five years old. It's not five years old in the sense that the vocabulary is limited to words like "happy", "sad" and "poopy". But it's his innocence and his perspective that makes it a good read.
I would highly recommend it. 

I'm not sure if you care to know, but I did my laundry yesterday.
Since it's the summer and I don't go out much, I haven't been worrying about outfits and seeming put together.
Instead, I've worn virtually every piece of clothing I own. I thought that this was clever of me, because I'd always be wearing clean clothes, and I didn't have to do my laundry every week.
But on the last few days, I've been wearing my ratty oversized soccer jerseys from 5th grade and these ridiculous knee high socks since nothing else was clean.
And then I realized I had to do my laundry.
And wash everything.

I had to do five loads.
It was the most work I did this summer.

i love spring break.

Spring break is probably the best time of the year.
Besides my birthday, which is coming in a few weeks.

I have an entire week of freedom.
Which I intend on using it to the full extent by sleeping-in like a rockstar.
All day, every day, any day.

God, I'm so lazy.

3 minute brownies.

Today, there was nothing to eat in our fridge.
So I decided to make something instead.
AKA, I threw a few ingredients into a mug and microwaved it.

Here's the recipe for 3 Minute Brownies:

Ingredients: 
4 tbsp flour
4 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp cocoa (Add an extra tsp if you're using hot cocoa mix)
1 egg
3 tbsp milk
3 tbsp oil

1.) Mix the flour, sugar, and cocoa together in the mug.
2.) Spoon in the egg.
3.) Pour in the milk and oil, and mix well.
4.) Put the mug with the ingredients into the microwave for 3 minutes.
5.) Let it cool and enjoy!

It actually tasted pretty good.
      ** I got the recipe from here.

what i do when there's no school.

During school breaks, I become dangerously uncivilized.
My sleep pattern becomes almost nocturnal, or I don't sleep at all. I wear a hoodie and throw my hair up into a ponytail every day. I don't watch what I eat, and end up having that I'm eating ice cream forever attitude. I also spend obnoxious amounts on the computer, and I lose track of time.
If you saw me in the middle of a school break, I would probably look like a running-on-caffeine-caveman-who-just-ate-a-buffalo.

In this sense, I'm actually glad that there's school.
School's my anchor. School gives me a reason not to act like the lazy slob that I naturally am.
It gives me a chance to go out into public and actually go to bed when it's still dark out.

When this is taken away from me, I go into a steady pattern.
I eat. I go back to bed. I read a book. I go eat some more. I take a shower. I go on the computer. At about 4am I go back to bed and sleep for a few hours.
Then repeat.

I'm a loser. I know.
So please don't unsubscribe because of your new awareness of my true nature.
