Too short.

I finally finished reading Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist today! I started on it months ago, but I never got around to finishing it. I really enjoyed it. Sure, some of it was a bit too...much, but I still found it a captivating read. And when I say it was a bit too much, I mean that in the way that I meant it when I watched Juno for the first time: I loved the movie, but when Olivia Thirlby's character said, "Honest to blog?!" I seriously wanted to hurl. But I thought Nick and Norah was an amusing, light-hearted (well, for teens that take themselves so very seriously) escapist read, so yes, I do recommend it!

It's funny that I'm so proud of myself for finishing a book, something I used to have no problem doing many times a year. Now, I keep myself so busy "trying science" that I feel that I never have time to focus on any other areas, like reading, writing, learning about history and psychology, etc. I feel like my old talents in those areas may be slipping away from me in pursuit of medical school, and I don't like it. Maybe I'll find some way to achieve more balance.

However, at the moment, I need to get ready for work so I can be an awesome sandwich cashier and save up money to pay my bills, pay off my debt, and finally buy an acoustic guitar and some saffron.
