Year's Resolution

I know I've been gone for awhile... and I was saying that I was going to post here often as part of my New Year's Resolution.

But you know what? It seems that all my resolutions just end up being started when summer does. I mean, school's out, I'm free to do things without worrying about homework or tests... summer resolutions. That's what I do.  And now that I'm able- I'll post here more often.  And maybe post some videos.... maybe. >.>  <.<  yeah....

Anyways- what I actually wanted to post about was the HORRORS I'm facing during my family vacation.  Firstly, it's my brother, mother, father and me in the car- we didn't have enough room so we had to rent a trailer and buy a hitch for it because the car they brought didn't have one.  Plus it's very awkward for me because I want to continue my research.

I've been doing the classic college student theme of questioning my faith and I thought that since I'm going to a campus with bunches of different religions I might as well learn about all of them.  After all, the religion that will work for me should stand out to me right? It should at least make sense to me.  And I'm worried that will be a problem for my parents (my mother especially) if they see me reading up on stuff.

Currently I'm researching Wicca.  Before this I was learning about the Krishna Consciousness by reading their book the Bhagavad Gita, but it seemed to heavy to me. Plus it was a little to warlike and pro-fighting for me and there was a bit about how women, children and animals are very similar...  And because I'm dating a Jew I've been absorbing Jewish ideas and learning about that.  I went on a biking trip where everyone was Muslim except for me so I got to observe some of their ideas and I found some brochures to read up on it.  But none of them seemed to work for me.  So now I'm on to Wicca.

And I really like it.  I really do- I won't go into specifics until I try some of the exercises in "Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner" by Scott Cunningham.  But I want to READ IT! Unfortunately I don't want to read it around my parents in case I start getting the third degree.  Ugh...

However.

<.<  >.>

I have a plan.  I'm going to wake up early tomorrow and read outside.  Then I'll just be at the breakfast when it opens so I can have some alone time.  (Which believe me is precious when I'm with my brother in the back of the car.... :P )

Well, I better get to bed if I'm going to do that.  So this'll be it for this post.

See ya later! This is Pim signing out
