I forgot how hard it is to be at home in Los Angeles during the summer. It's incredibly hot, with temperatures ranging from 90s-100s. It's almost impossible to do anything! For example, I decide to read a book. However, about 10 minutes into the book, I find myself really uncomfortable and having a hard time focusing. This is because it's soooo friggin' hot! My mind is always on how hot it is, and all I really want to do is crawl into bed and sleep until it gets cooler.
The only thing I can effectively focus on is playing games, since that's able to distract me until night when the temperature is much more forgiving. Unless I'm out of the house, I spend most of the day just waiting for nightfall.
Yesterday was pretty fun though. In an effort to stay cool, I dragged my friends to go with me to the Western Autry Museum. We hung out at the museum for about 3 hours, looking at old western artifacts. After that, we had some mexican food and grabbed dessert at an old-fashioned ice-cream parlor. By the time we got home, it was already cool enough to relax.
Today was boring in comparison. I stayed home all day trying not to fall asleep (which ended up happening anyway).
On another note, I did sign up for an appointment with a career counselor at my university next week. Now that I've graduated, I guess it's kinda weird not to have any plans for the future. I eventually do want to go to grad school, but I don't think it's the right time for that yet. I don't know where to focus on in my career, and seeing my career counselor will hopefully help me figure those things out.
On another another note, I've replayed all 3 Phoenix Wright games on the DS. I'm now on Apollo Justice's story, but I don't find it as intriguing as the first Ace Attorney games.
I don't really know what's going to happen in the future, so I've come to realize how ordinary days like these are a blessing. They may seem mundane, but at least my family is nearby and we still have our home. That's all I need for now. I'd like to hold onto these moments if I can.
