Today is one of those bone-chilling fall days where all I seek is a cup of stew and the warmth of a wood burning fire.

Lately, I've been trying to build some form of structure in my life. The main struggle is that it's hard to be alone when you live with other people except in the early morning. I'm going to try getting up extra early (0430) and accomplishing things that I have been forgetting to do (meditation, exercise, breakfast, cold showers, studying). If nothing comes out of my 4-week experiment and I am still unhappy, then I'll probably drop out and travel the world. Consistency should be key.

Sometimes I really do envy you for having a calm and peaceful place to be alone, it would make things much easier.
