So, in my performance review (gold star) my grand-supe said a) that she thinks she gets me (particularly with reference to Seattle) and b) that she thinks I’m bored.
Gold star for her.
The triathlon is in no small part about challenging myself. The spanish course I was taking (until thursday. I ought to sign up for the next installment, but they’re expensive and eat up one evening per week. They also don’t have the social element I was hoping for.) was about challenging myself. Volunteering in various capacities is about engaging myself more thoroughly in life. The worst times are when I’m doing nothing, but it’s still hard to motivate myself to do things I see as utterly pointless.
Maybe I should be responsible for creating more of my own challenges…
*nod* this seems to be my case as well. It’s the projects I take on my own initiative that challenge me the best (in the good way) and give me the greatest sense of fufillment.
I want to take a language course. I should look into that now.
