Today.

I'm sorry.  This is for you.  You don't have to talk to me now, I'll understand.  When you're ready.

Today has been...interesting. So glad it's half over.

Saturdays...

If you were to ask me what my least favorite day of the week is, I would most likely tell you Saturday.  Maybe Sunday, but probably Saturday.  That sounds crazy, right?  Well you have met me, right?  For the most part, I answer this way because Saturday is usually a homework day.  Yesterday, I managed to leave my dorm once, to get breakfast, and that was it.  Sounds like a fun filled day, huh?  Not really.  I sit around all day contemplating doing my homework, thinking that if I stare at it long enough, it will miraculously just get done by itself.  Wishful thinking, I know.  My roommate said I should have a fun weekend, go hang out with friends, go see a movie, whatever.  Well to be honest, I don't have that many friends here in which to hang out with.  I don't feel like driving 20 minutes in a freezing cold car to a movie theatre, or walking 10 minutes in the freezing cold across campus to the performing arts building. 

 Ok, so call me lazy, it's true, I am.  I am also one of the best procrastinators I know.  What's my technique?  Sleeping.  When I get bored or frustrated or whatever, I'll take a nap.  At home it used to be watching tv, but here at school,  you can often find me taking a nap when I should be doing homework that's usually due the next day.

Someone should do an experiment.  Ask me a question during the week day and write down my answer.  Then ask me the same question during the weekend, and I can almost guarantee you that my weekend answer will be way more depressing and pessimistic.  Haha, someone should really conduct that experiment, but then again, they'd probably have me committed....

flip flops...?

So as I'm sitting here defrosting, I thought I might as well use my time wisely.  Why am I defrosting?  Well I had made plans to study with a fellow student for an upcoming Psychology test at the library.  We said we'd meet at 11 on Sunday morning, sounds perfect, right?  Wrong.  The library opens at 12 on Sundays, a little piece of information that had slipped my mind.  So as I stood there outside the library for about 20 minutes, debating with my mom via cell phone whether or not I should wait or leave, I got a tad bit chilly.  The view from my dorm room window had been lying.  It made me believe that the temperature today was as inviting at the 55* of yesterday.  It's actually not that warm today, so my feet got kinda raw standing outside in flip flops for that length of time.

By now I'm pretty much defrosted, and getting ready to trudge over to the library yet again.  Probably gonna wear shoes and socks this time...

home sweet home

there's no place like home for the holidays. ok, so that's cheesy, and i guess i kinda stole it from a song. anyway... i'm finally home, and i couldn't be any happier.  granted i'm gonna miss all my college friends, and yes, even chem labs, but i'm still really glad to be home.  after a 5+ hour drive home, it feels good to have my own room, and be back in my own house.  

biology, chemistry

biology....is a pain...wow...chemistry...is by far my favorite subject [no thanks to my high school teacher].

it's snowing.

oh yeah, it's snowing.  we got about 2" last night, pretty sweet, huh?  i know, you're all jealous.  i'm pretty excited, not gonna lie.  today would be awesome, if i didn't kinda tick off one of my very good friends last night.  so even if that person isn't going to read this, i'm sorry.  i'm very sorry.

it's raining...

It's raining; gross.  It's raining, but it's not quite warm and it's not quite cold.  It's right in the middle.  Which is annoying.  this is western NY, after Halloween, it's supposed to be snowing non-stop.  Whatever.  Wet pant legs are by far my biggest pet peeve [yup, they even top the list before my brother.]  

Since I've mentioned pet peeves, let's dive into some of my other quirks.  

I don't like being in a classroom alone, especially the lecture hall.

Boats scare me.  I think I'm going to fall off and drown, even if I'm wearing a life jacket.

Waffle and chocolate ice cream sandwiches are the best desserts you can make in a dining hall.

...more to come later.
