epipha...y

who says epiphamy? someone i know does... and i'm pretty sure it's not a five year old...

anyway, i had an epiphany today:

there is not enough time to do everything you want to do when you have nothing to do.

this is how i feel these days. i have absolutely no obligations, and yet a kazillion things i want to do, and at the same time, no time to do any of it. but i dont know why - i dont have anything i must do.

this morning, i spent over an hour cleaning the pantry - it had to be done. then i went to class, had to rush through my homework beforehand (which day will i actually spend the 3 hours studying like i want??), was busy even during the break, then i went to a yoga studio with granola girl to get a yoga mat (only 20 euro - why did granola girl pay 130 for hers in canada?? she's REALLY in to yoga). ran back upstairs to listen to a lecture about museumsinsel. a lecture of which i only understood... 15-20%. that might even be pushing it. then i met luisa, my italian friend, for dinner. i told her i would take her out since she was just awarded some award like "best librarian in europe" or something like that. we had asian noodles. then we went across the street to starbucks with big, comfy chairs, and hung out for an hour. she offered to let me stay at her place in roma - maybe i'll take her up on the offer! came home, did laundry, and have been busy answering emails, writing, while listening to deutsch on my fancy eyetv, etc since. i have not had a chance to take care of many things i need to do, yet now it is 12:45am and i need to go to bed so i can get up and do it all again. and for what?? riddle me this.
