EVEN FOLDING CLOTHES!

There are plenty of videos on YouTube demonstrating the Japanese folding technique, but of course I am going to post the crazy dramatic Chinese version! I am excited to do laundry tomorrow!
God forbid I ever dream again - Last night I was stuck in a old haunted mansion. Parts of the house became 2D, and I had to dump and go through doors to get to the top. At the top, I was reunited with my math team from fifth grade, and we had to solve these AWFUL equations that involved scientific calculators and square roots. I haven't even touched a real live calculator since high school, why am I dreaming about such trash. I don't think I can even translate an equation onto a graph anymore. And just like what happened in fifth grade, I failed the test, something involving fire, and then I woke up.
The night before, I had to save Dakota Fanning from dying, and I really didn't want to because she is a scary little monster.
On the plus side, I just got some shiny metal fillings! My dream of being part robot are slowing coming true.
I don't understand the whole "fear of dentists" thing, what is there to fear? Check-ups are painless, your teeth get cleaned and polished, you come out feeling like a million bucks. (Unless you find out you have cavities, but your mouth is still awesomely clean.) At least I really like knowing the status of my health. And for fillings and root canals, you're NUMB the whole time, and it's not like you can see what they're doing to your teeth. People say they are scared of the drills? Well for one, they're lame because the noise is like a distant buzz, and two, just close your eyes stupid. Or in my case, focus on the Pixar movies. ^_^ I really like my dentist, I think I see him four times a year. They know me.
What I have learned lately: If you want to change anything, make it your top priority and become obsessed with it. Only then can anything get accomplished. Case in point - I want to lose weight. I ALWAYS want to lose weight, but eh, if I have the opportunity to eat good food or have a whole day where I can veg and play video games, then I don't really care. Well now it is my BUSINESS, and since making it my top priority, I'm actually accomplishing something. Another example - I've read a few articles online where the writers were dirt poor or in a lot of debt, and got out of their mess really quickly. It's because they made it their top priority to make money, restructured their whole life to revolve around making and saving money. So this is how I plan on approaching things from now on. If I want to lose weight, I will obsess about it. If I want to learn something new, I will become obsessed with it. If I want a good job, I will obsess about my portfolio and job search. If I want to have money, I will become obsessed with making my life is as economical and frugal as possible, and hoard my money. It's the only way to get things done. I'm tired of fleeting attempts and passing thoughts. FROM NOW ON, I WILL GET THINGS DONE. And I'm going to start with weight loss, watching all the James Bond films (^_^), and learning more about cars. After going through a blistery winter in northeast Ohio, I realize how important it is to take care of my car, because it is my only way out of here. And I normally don't get that excited about spring break, but is anyone wanting to go somewhere nice and sunny with me?
