Boredom. Its an epidemic that is all across the nation. And today I've been having a bad case of it.
Waking up at a decent time this morning, I actually went downstairs and had breakfast. I'm amazed. I completely forgot what breakfast was. Lets face it, the average student doesn't want to wake up on a school day and sleeps in as much as possible without being late. But I of course seem to go past the late point sometimes =/ Afterward, I had no idea what to do. No games for me. I don't really watch TV that much anymore. Didn't feel like reading or doing homework.
So I ended up cleaning. Being stuck at home means one thing for me. I end up doing everything around the house. That's why I love being out of the house. This is the first time in a while where I didn't have anything to do on a Saturday, hence the cleaning day.
After cleaning up somewhat (I still my room as too daunting a task to start), I ended up here. On this old trusty computer.
Halfway through the day, and nothing much done. Heck, I might even do my homework.

Ok, on second thought....
I think I actually will post something. Bleh, I'll probably get in trouble for staying on the computer longer than I'm supposed to but oh well.
Just some thoughts on today. Today went by pretty quickly for me actually, I ended up spending most of my day reading a book and I managed to finish. I love to finish books but I hate when they end. I like for stories to continue so I learn more of what happens to characters. What exactly does happen after the "happily ever after?" Only thing that actually felt like time passed by normally was in algebra 2 where we had a test. I was stuck on one problem the whole time, and I finally give up and show my work to Mr. Aseron and he tells me my answer was already there. *Facepalm*
Anyways, I learned while returning my book to the library, that the librarian is actually quite talkative. Practically kept me there for half an hour and I had to keep talking to be polite. Meh. Oh well, I managed to get another book.
Why I can get absorbed in books, I donno. They provide an escape from reality I guess. Let my mind wander and imagine what happens in the story. A good book can keep my attention and is something I'd hate to put down and I would often read late into the night just to find out what happens next. Books reports would seem easy for a guy like me who likes to read, but not really...I'll finish the book in 1 or 2 sit ins, making a reading log almost impossible, and then I don't wanna do work anymore. Just read. -_- I've been stuck in a reading mood lately.
That's it for now, I wanna get back to reading then its lights out!

Under Construction
As I've been playing around with my layout settings I've completely neglected to actually post something. If anything, just enjoy the new stuff I added and lemme know what else I should fix =)

Fresh out of the oven!
When you smell the aroma of a freshly baked batch of cookies, it seems they call out to you to eat them. That kinda describes why I started this blog. I just suddenly had an urge to write. Get my thoughts out there. Let people intake the thoughts as just maybe a refreshing break, just like when you get a wiff of those cookies.
I seem to be emphasizing cookies a lot. First reason is probably because, for lack of a better name, I named the blog Monztor's Cookie. Two, I do love the smell of cookies. Three, I really don't know what else to talk about right now.
Hmm, now that I think about it, I might as well talk about Lent. Being the second official day of Lent, I'm already starting to miss the things I've given up. Sometimes they become so hard to try not to do, but its like that fresh batch of cookies. Delicious. Tempting. Such simple things as not cracking my knuckles I find to be almost impossible. I often crack at least one thing before I catch my self. The other one for me is me giving up video games.
Now if you don't know me, I spend quite a lot of time playing games. More than what is good for me sometimes. My teacher once told me I am compulsive. I have to agree. When I pick something I want to work on, I can zone out and ignore everything else just so I can. A couple friends of mine are witnesses to my zoning out antics if I'm playing games or reading a book or sometimes even doing work. That's why sometimes its hard for me to multitask at times. The problem is though, that I have a weird priority list. Games, books, then homework. So not good. That's random fact Number 1 about me.
Anyways, back to Lent. Lent for me has a new meaning other than just sacrificing things that I love to fast. Passion Play is coming up at the end of Lent, so this Lent I will be busy going to rehearsals, memorizing lines, and the actual performances themselves. Passion Play is a ton of work, but the overall experience of the event is still pretty fun. I've met many people through Passion Play and we all get to work together toward getting the message of the Passion of Christ to the audience. The second one is, this year I managed to get a pretty major role. In fact, I got the role of Jesus this year. So, in order to get into character more, I'm trying to fast to get try to even get closer to the Passion by fasting for 40 Days. I want to try to "Rend my heart, not my clothes." That is my goal for these forty days. To be able to fast, feel true hunger(if even minor), but I still want to appear to not be suffering.
Hmm...now that I think about it. Dough goes into the oven, and goes through intense heat and comes out as a good tasting cookie. Most of the time...if its not burnt...Anyway, the point is, Lent is a time for we go through pain, as a way of cleansing ourselves and afterward we are to emerge as better people. Hopefully more flavorful.
Anyways. I think I'll stop here for now. Bear with me for a bit, I'm still kinda new to this stuff. But expect more in the very near future~!
