Scheduling the Unscheduled

My calender is filled with more stuff from the past two weeks of school that it was for the entire summer. Is that not ridiculous? Not that I mind too much; I like being busy, but my goodness. I thought I led a very active life this summer but by the calender, I suppose not. But, thinking about it, I suppose my summer activities weren't the planned sort. My summer adventures weren't the sort that you could write on a calender and say "On this Thursday, July 12th, Olivia and I are going to get a lime-aid and drink it by the river while discussing the finer points of life."

I don't even know if July 12th was a Thursday.

But I'm sure ya'll catch my drift. There is something to be appreciated in events with a schedule. I guess that is what summer is for. It would be a little harder, in campus society, to plan groups and organizations without consistency. And class attendance would be a nightmare. But not everything about campus has to be planned. I realized tonight that I've gotten myself on an interesting schedule when it comes to things that should be unscheduled. As I paid for my dinner it hit me. I eat at the same exact times everyday. Breakfast is the only thing that varies. Lunch is at 11:30am and dinner is at five pm, every day, including most weekends.

I don't like that too much.

Also, I realized that the only reason it happens is because that's when my closer friends eat. I think I'm going to start variatizing the eating times. I can meet new people that way and I won't feel so scheduled because honestly, who schedules unscheduled events. Not me any more.

College advice: don't get so scheduled that everything you do relies on a schedule. It'll make you boring and bored with yourself.

Have a great one.
