Distancing From Friends

I have a habit of distancing myself from friends that don't seem beneficial to me. If a given friend doesn't sharpen my wit, lead me into a deeper spiritual understanding somehow, or generally doesn't really make me a better person by being around them, I will usually not try to be around them. This habit, coupled with the fact that I generally don't try very hard to stay in contact with most people, means that I don't have many close friends. Very few, in fact.

Even today, I was thinking "this friend isn't really doing much to make me a better person, so maybe we should stop being friends so much..." but then I decided against it. I made this decision because I realized that I'm at a good point where I'm not going to be dragged down by anyone, which means I can pull other people up. I assume.

I've been napping after dinner for the past two days. I studied less after classes but I also listened pretty well in class. The naps have led to slightly later nights, but still feeling about the same in the morning, so I dunno. I used to be a prodigy with naps, but without the ability to control the feel of the room in terms of lighting and some decor, I dunno... The #blanketfort was so powerful...

In any case, I have one week till I take my last block exams, and two more weeks after that until I finish my first semester of medical school.

Oh, and my visa was approved today, so that's something.
