I am in the bathtub because, as you know, I decided to move back to my parents' house. Well that's not the exact reason. The exact reason is I am avoiding doing all my moving in one day by bringing a carload home every time I come. And I guess that's not the exact reason either. The exact reason is that I felt I needed to prove myself (to myself, go figure!) and loaded my boxes up with my books (ALL of them in TWO boxes!!!) and carried them down my three flights of stairs across the lot to my car and then up the stairs to my parents house and down the stairs to my future room.
I got home and my dad offered to help me, and I told him no, he wouldn't be able to carry them (he has a bad back) and he said oh yes I can. At this point, he proceeded to pull a box out of the car. And then yelled at me "WHAT THE F*CK DO YOU HAVE IN THIS?!?" And I told him I said it was all books!! I was carrying the other (and heavier of the two) in the house. He asked me how I was going to get the box in the house and I laughed and said the same way that I got it in the car! I'm going to carry it!
Knowing that I did it myself and my dad didn't think I could made my day!!
In my process of learning to be spontaneous and not overanalyze I have developed a strong desire to be independent. And not so much that I feel like I don't need other people (I know I do!!), it's more of a I need to know I can do this, and this is every aspect of my life, on my own if I have to. In the past I NEVER would have thought of trying to move all the stuff I did yesterday on my own. (On top of the books, I moved all my movies, the movie stand, some kitchen stuff and some clothes.) I would have waited until I could get someone to help me. It's amazing how good it felt to know I could do it myself and that I wasn't dependent on someone else to help.
Back to the bathtub, I am so sore today though!! But it's a good sore; it's a sore that says "hey I accomplished something!!" Now to accomplish some homework....or maybe just relaxing....

Yay for blog postings! Mine is not nearly as deep as yours but you are inspiring me. I'm fixing some things in my life now, as you know :) and plan on taking it to the next level...Stopping procrastinating and being more of a "can-do" type.
I doubt I'll blog of my first change, but I think the can do thing may make an appearance!
Ah, stop procrastinating! That should be added to my long list of changes to make. Eh, maybe tomorrow!! =)
