As AP tests are fast approaching, I find it extremely hard to push myself to study, to keep running, metaphorically speaking. The drive to do well in school is diminishing, and I'm not sure why.

Okay, I know that this isn't really the proper forum to discuss my personal problems....especially my relationship problems...so I promise, I'll try to expand on my topics so that it relates to more of human kind.

So, here's today's plan: Provide more details concerning my predicament (mostly the why), and provide commentary which others can relate to.

I have no idea how to say this, without revealing my entire personal life. So, fine, I'll just throw it out there.

I love having technology at my disposal. Email alone has made sharing information and discussion so much easier. But, as the internet has grown and prospered, we have discovered some inherent flaws in the system. Porn, ads, spaming, hackers, viruses, habit forming games, spyware...everything from the annoying to the destructive. And those are just the obvious ones.

So, because today is the last day of school before winter break, there are two questions which are buzzing around. The first is, "you, me, Formal?" but that's not really what i wanted to talk about

Really, We all turn to one another and ask, "what are you doing for winter break/christmas?"

And my classmate says, "absolutely nothing."
Confused, I asked, "Nothing? No gifts, no parties?"

So lately, I've been watching Pushing Daisies on ABC.   Or actually, I've been watching it online on the weekends because i don't have enough time otherwise, but that's not the point.
