The mind unhinged from the constraints of logic and realism believes that anything is possible. After a certain hour in the early AMs, my sense of realism gets diminished and I begin to think of nonsensical ideas. Sometimes this occurs after long hours of concentrated work/studying. To my unfortunate friends who have witnessed me at those moments, they can testify to the oddness of my ramblings and ideas.
Today, as my woozy brain and tired eyes try to maintain awakeness , I contemplate the idea of a secondary, side career. As to what career, I don’t know. Anything that allows me to be a full-time student with flexibility would be great. But honestly, I think I’ll just settle for anything that pays me…legally of course. My lighted laptop screen in the middle of a dark room is not very inspiration. Among the few ideas that flinted across so far have been 1. Setting up shop on esty.com, though I honestly have no idea what handmade items I would sell. 2. Collect recyclables. Problem with that is the monetary yields are way low for the amount of time and effort it takes. I’m a student first. Recycler second. 3. Learn calligraphy and freelance. The trouble with this one is I’m lacking in skills AND tools. It’s a major investment to start it. That’s all that I’ve come up with so far. Is there nothing else I can do but study for the next few years??? I’m seriously thinking, if others have enough time to get drunk at clubs every few Friday nights (or even more often than that), then I should have enough (small) time to do something a little more productive than inebriate myself.
Then again, there is always sleep. I can always nap those potential hours away. Heavens knows I can use more sleep.
Now that’s an idea. Sleep.
Goodnight.
