Almost There

I have taken one lab practical and written two papers. I have one paper left and one exam. I have less than two weeks left here on this island, and I’m not sure how I feel about it. London is an exciting city, and I’m sure it is even better once school is not involved. There is so much I want to do yet, but I’m also ready to go home.

I’m not in the mood to write the paper, so I am here. I’m still fighting with food and losing terribly. I’m avoiding my room because I just cannot stand to be around my room mate any more.  I have to wear shoes around the room because the floor is sticky. The entire place is a mess, and it smells.  She sits there, windows shut (so hot and stuffy), blinds down, lights off…watching her shows on youtube and the like.  She didn’t leave the room yesterday either.  I’m not going to counter her habits by being an ass- although I would like to very much.

I’m just going to take it easy tonight. I didn’t get much sleep the past 2 nights, and Yahoo has a new article linking lack of sleep and super early death.

There are so many things I have planned for the near future though. I’m super excited over those.  Alex and Lenny have been getting the house situated; I’m signing the lease when I get back. I have SO many pictures to upload. I can’t do that here since the internet is barely sustainable.  I should find a job at some point too.  I AM planning my quarterly trip out to Erie once I get back. I just need permission to go (considering I will have just gotten home.)  There was issues with that too, though.  Since my brother is now working, I don’t have a car to take out at my leisure. The job is supposed to cover that part for me :\ We’ll see.

I was in Paris this past weekend. So nice, but we also were there when they had their version of Labor Day, so everything was closed.  We were in Disneyland and that was great. Got my Indy AND STAR WARS in :D

Alright…I am going to try to get this reading done so I can try to start the paper tomorrow or so.

9 Days.

Laundry

I’m doing some laundry at the moment, so I have time to spare before I go switch the load to dry.  I have a few things on my mind as the semester is winding down. Let’s see what I can recall.

I still find myself in utter annoyance with my roomate.  We have since talked some more and related to some business, but it is her personal habits that still bug me to pieces.  The way she eats, her chewing, her talking to herself, singing to herself, clonking around in the morning with the heeled boots, the ridiculous mess she makes, the amount of toilet paper she uses, the freaking mess in the kitchen, the broken freezer door, the odor…

That’s not nice, but how I feel. I love it when I have the room to myself, and I always have this dread of her return- or the biggest let down when that door opens.  I held through, though.  I did not move out when given the opportunity- I want to be a trooper…storm trooper. Haha…I wish.

Anyway, what else is new.  I did scheduling for school, but didn’t get anything I wanted.  I started browsing craigslist for missed connections and then into personals. They were quite amusing at first, but then as I kept reading, I noted my desperation and loneliness within the ads. Oh dear. There’s the boy topic too, but that’ll be a private post just so I can get my thoughts out; I’m not ready to be judged on that one just yet.

There’s less than a month left here.  24 days, according to my phone’s countdown (also 265 days until I turn 21!).  51 for a sappy anniversary and 74 for one year. D’awwwww… Anyway. Less than a month, I have 2 papers, 1 exam, 1 lab practical. I should be free by the 11th of May :) I have a few days to myself. Roomate is leaving the 12th, so then the days after that are all my own!

I believe Harley and Jenn are coming to the airport to pick me up.  I’m super excited.  The more I am here, the more I am beginning to miss home. It’s not that I dislike London, I just could really use some good American things. Homey things…. American currency and value. WHERE A BIG MAC AT MCDONALDS DOES NOT EQUATE TO 12 DOLLARS. Thank you, Rappersweil.  I just have to push through- make the best of the time I have left, and not go completely broke. I had a goal to coming home with some money. I’m not sure how that’s looking. I can’t do much spending if I had a plan. Eeks.

Ok, time to go get laundry. I may come back to edit this or just start a new post. Maybe the private one.
