I officially deleted my gmail account, actually a while ago. I just thought I’d share, considering all the drama that has gone into it (see gmail). I wasn’t using it enough, and the congestion it created in my inbox was overwhelming … despite its claim of “you’ll never want to use folders again!” … well, in my case, it was kinda like … “gmail, think again … i like my folders.”
You know, sometimes I wonder what it would be like to have no inhibitions, tie-downs, etc., but I’m sure everyone wishes that. What would it be like if I didn’t really have to do work and could just play everyday? What would it be like if I can say whatever I want to whomever I want whenever I want? Then wouldn’t everything be awsome? Or chaos? Oh well, I guess we still should keep our inhibitions, motivations, self-discipline … and they’re necessary to get anywhere in this world.
I’m debating whether or not to start a path into residence life again … HROL was a pretty tramatic experience. As much as I liked the Lawn, I would much rather have lived there as a simple resident, and I think those who lived on the Lawn 2003-2004 would have benefited from a better Head Resident … so why would I ever consider going back into residence life? I don’t know … maybe because I hate myself? I’m currently considering filling out the application to be an RA in an undergrad dorm … which the RA equivalents here are all graduate students. And I wouldn’t even have to feel guilty for not enforcing policy because policy wouldn’t really be quite my job. Anyway … I don’t want to apply unless I’m sure I wouldn’t mind, or I’m sure I wouldn’t tire of, of taking on the responsibility … and I’m not sure I’m ready to say that yet. However, I don’t really have much time left seeing as how the application is due on January 28, AND I need 2 references … so I better get my act together if I still want to be a decently strong candidate.
