James is Trying

I let myself down.  I haven’t posted to this blog in months and months and months.  A few days after I wrote my last post, I wrote another one but it ended up being very long and I didn’t know how to end it.  And that was that.  I’ve thought about this blog many times since, but I didn’t write a single word.

I promised myself that I would work towards outrageous goals and if I wasn’t successful by the time medical school started, I would simply go to school and forget about this art nonsense.

Outrageous goals fell to the wayside.  I went to work every day, came home and watched movies, listened to albums, read books, went to sleep and didn’t do much art.  I reached for no outrageous goals.  I didn’t write.  I just wasted time.  I’m disappointed.

I did come out of my shell a bit and perhaps I’ll write about it soon, but let’s see if I even finish this first.

A few days ago, I received an email from my future medical school.  They set up some google forum where all the students can write to each other and begin to get to know each other.  Pretty great.  The administrator suggested we all write little introductions for ourselves.

I’m pretty sure no one loves summing themselves up in 2-3 short paragraphs and I am no exception.  I thought, “Eh, I’ll just send them a link to jamesistrying.com,” but it would seem pretty lazy to send them to a website that I haven’t updated in 6 months.

So this one is for my future classmates and I’m going to try to get the regular posts going for my 7-or-so loyal readers.  I have certainly missed telling stories.
