First August Weekend

I am a bad decision-maker.  I have encountered a lot of situations wherein I made bad decisions and had second thoughts -- including in tests and deciding to go somewhere. This weekend I realized that one of the things one must do "to have a life" is to take advantage of the opportunities that's in front of him (or her).

On Saturday, I attended a picnic, where I met some of my friend again after months. It was a refreshing moment, and thankfully, it was not very hot. I went, but at first feeling terrified and regretful of the decision (I planned to go, but I only confirmed it when I woke up that day). It's a terrible feeling to have, especially if you have known these people yet you couldn't manage to make a conversation with them. But I got warmed up a little and started to have fun.

Yesterday was a little different: my dilemma was whether to go with my family to Indianapolis to pick up my sister, who was staying with an aunt who apparently she has gotten fond of. To be honest, I don't really like traveling with my family; I'd rather be alone. However I feel shy to go to places like in the mall or store, etc. But I haven't been really outside for awhile, so I guessed this weekend was the best time to have a break from home. We only visited Children's Museum and my aunt's apartment, and ate at Denny's and at a Chinese restaurant. That took the whole day, but it was worth it.

One of the great benefits of this weekend was the minimal usage of technology, which was great for me. Self-control, Josh, I would say whenever I have been online for awhile, but I couldn't control myself--something I have to improve. I also didn't feel like blogging all of these; I feel really lazy, and I don't know what to say. I still feel obligated to do so, though.

That's all for now.

Cheers and enjoy your life,
Josh
