ben's reflective post

So after reading my brother and sister's blogs...I've noticed that I'm the only one of mother's kids that doesn't like to reflect and think too deeply about my feelings or what's going on inside my head. So I started wondering...what do I think about...and to tell the truth I really don't know. There's nothing I really sit down and think about or reflect on. I like to live my life one moment at a time and not look forward to the future or look back at the past too much. Of course there are always times when I do take a gander into these places and look at what I've done or what I want to do. But for the most part I'm usually only concerned with what's going on at that particular moment. I've also never been one to think to deeply about stuff going on around me or stuff I have noticed to find deeper meaning, such as David's "rain" post. Nor have I ever been very much of a "feeling" person, like Amanda's "A new chapter" post..I can't come up with stuff like that. It just isn't there. This is probably why I am majoring in something mathematical and why I am in technical english. My mother says her children are creative writers. I agree that the two older ones are. I never really have been much of a writer. Just like this post has taken me an hour to write...ha...

But that's enough of that. Classes are going pretty good as of this moment. I am not taking a liking to my English class, who would have thought that. Love my Calculus II and Psychology class. Psychology is something really interesting. I actually thought about switching my major to Psychology. I like learning why people do certain things and what makes them tick. Littlejohn and I got high speed cable/wireless internet to go in our room. We are splitting the cost with our neighbors across the hall. There has been nonstop online xbox and PS3 gaming since we got it.

And as for the Catalina Wine-Mixer quote, mother dearest, it's from the movie Stepbrothers.

Well I'm tired of writing and thinking...I think it's about time to get some gaming on. If you have any suggestions for my next post...feel free to tell. peace
