Time is both flying by and crawling by. I've been in my new apartment
for less than a month but it feels like it's been much longer. Work is
good, even if it's slow at times. I don't really feel like I'm
learning a ton, but just being employed is good experience. Also, I
got my first paycheck yesterday which is super cool.

I haven't been feeling very motivated lately. Most of my time is spent
on mundane stuff, like planning grocery trips and walking around. I
feel okay about it, though. On the one hand, I feel much less
energetic and enthusiastic about things. On the other hand, it's kind
of nice to live simply and be satisfied with what I have. It's a new
mode of life for me. Sometimes it bothers me that I don't have a giant
goal to obsess over, but mostly it's just quiet.

Also, June seems to be the month of birthdays. My birthday, my dad's
birthday, roommates and friends and family... I've been baking (and eating)
lots of birthday cake lately. It's fun to celebrate when I can.
