Six Feet Under, Soapmaking and Etcetera
I'm watching Six Feet Under for the second time. I'm falling in love with it all over again. I think I understand it so much better now too. :) Nate is still amazing. Claire is annoying. Dave is conflicted, lost. Brenda is messed up. Ruth is.. extremely strange.
Ooo.. today I suddenly got super interested in soap making! I dunno why. I already told Dhivya and her cousin, Chucha (haha no, this isn't her real name) that we are gonna make some together soon. I'm so excited, I can't wait. We are probably gonna do it on November 1 or 2, because all of us will be busy before that. Since this is a Catholic country, both days are holidays (November 1 - All Saints' Day, November 2 - All Souls' Day -- or maybe it's the other way around, dunno). The 1st is a Sunday though so it doesn't count. Anyway I'm looking at recipes online and ahh, I wanna make all kinds! Oatmeal and brown sugar soap, tea tree oil soap, lavender soap, rose soap,.. sandalwood soap, cinnamon soap.. haha the list goes on and on! I wanna have a different soap to use every time I take a shower! I find showers really boring these days so maybe this'll perk them up a bit for me. :) Ohh but I'm gonna do it the easy way. I'm buying a melt and pour soap base (pre-made soap) so all I'll have to do is melt it and add stuff. I don't want to deal with lye or whatever. Haha, so I'm cheating! Big deal.
I value my education but really.. ugh.. it can be so boring and unmotivating.. going to (some) of my classes is okay, but coming home and having to do so much for them--not that I do all or even most of it--is disgusting. I like having a lot of time to myself. I am aware that this makes me a less productive person and I used to hate this part of me, but it's just the way I am. Anyway, I don't think I should appreciate / value myself based on how productive I am.. (although there's a limit to how lazy and UNproductive I should be).
Okay I should go sleep now. Have class later -- Introductory Microeconomics, Introduction to Art (it isn't really what it sounds like) and Personal Effectiveness 2.. <-- extremely useless class.
61 more days till I leave for Malaysia! :-O!
