take two

My second attempt at keeping a blog. I have attempted many times to put my thoughts down in writing, but to no avail. My mom has mentioned multiple times how she wishes that she would have written things down when she was my age because it would be interesting to look back and see what her thoughts and feelings were when going through some of the daily struggles that a typical college student goes through, and therefore encourages me to write as often and about as much as possible. And so, alas, I am going to give it another shot. We'll see what happens.

I have made a recent discovery that I am afraid will soon empty out my wallet. I am really into books - romance, art, the classics. I've gone to Borders a couple of times recently, and have found that, with no clock to keep me accountable, I can spend hours at a time, scanning the numerous titles, often times feeling overwhelmed at the many choices I have to make. In the end, I leave the store with too many books, knowing it will be months before I will have time to read them, and often feeling guilty about the amount of money that was spent. I am, however, quite proud of some of the selections I have made recently, and cannot wait to be able to sit down give them each the time they deserve.

So... if anyone has read a good book that you can recommend for my growing library, let me know!
