Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

So I've decided that while I'm just sitting around applying to jobs and waiting for people to call me in for interviews I may as well get back to my originally intended career of writing. I found myself a writing contest on here to get the juices flowing again, and a couple days later I found myself dreaming up stories and essays left and right. It feels so good to be writing again!

It's rather like exercising. I really enjoy it after I've made myself get off the couch, or rather away from the computer screen, but it's so easy to forget that in the face of extreme laziness or obsession over some website/game/task (like finding a job). Once you get into the habit though, you wonder why you ever stopped. That is until you break the habit a few times too many and fall right back into the same cycle of course.

Still, for now I'm happy to be back at it again. Hopefully I can stay in the habit for awhile now. I don't dare hope for it to become a permanent change of course. Not given my track record. But I am moving closer to that ideal hopefully.
