Laundry

Written by admin on 21 April 2010 — Leave a Comment

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.

Alas! Spring has sprung. It is my spring break, and I’m currently writing from Brussels, Belgium. We arrived in the evening and are out tomorrow night to Bruges.  Waffles are delicious, and we’re getting fries tomorrow. We saw Manneken Pis, which was a little disappointing, but cute nonetheless.

Should anyone be interested, here is our travel itinerary.

  • 25 March: London to Brussels
  • 26 March: Brussels, Belgium
  • 27 March: Bruges, Belgium
  • 28 March: Amsterdam, Netherlands
  • 29 March: Zurich, Switzerland
  • 30 March: Geneva, Switzerland
  • 31 March-3 April: Nice, France
  • 3 April: Venice
  • 4 April-7 April: Rome
  • 7 April: Athens
  • 10? April: Prague
  • 11 April: Back to London

So those are the locations, major plans go with, but that will be updated as we go along, I hope.  Here’s to every thing going well and a wonderful time!

Emotional

Written by admin on 21 March 2010 — Leave a Comment

The past week plus, about, I have been in the worst mood. I want to blame Aunt Flo, but after yesterday, I know it’s not just her work.  She gets me moody, but not like this.  I have noticed (even Kelsey has told me), but every couple of months, I get just horribly depressed, down, mad at the world and pissy.  I can’t explain why, and I can’t predict when, I just know that it happens and I feel awful.  These are the days that lead me to suspect something wrong, something that’s much deeper.

I talked to my mom yesterday.  She told me that a friend is in the hospital. Blood poisoning, coma. They don’t know really what to expect at this point, but we’re all just praying for the best.  That really added to my day. That just broke me- I started crying unbelievably, and everything just felt awful.  I couldn’t study (which I really need to) but how could I focus in that state of mind?

I did for a brief moment chat with Dave, and even though it wasn’t anything special at all- probably the lamest chat, just having him there made me feel better. I’m gonna be super miserable should that end tragically.  But ok. I’m a wreck. We’ve established that.  I avoided my friends here. I want alone time, without the need to worry about exams. I’m curling up after the exam if I’m still feeling this way.

Anyway. I really want to get back into blogging here. I know it’s a rough chance, but it’s worth a shot. I renewed, right? Next 2 weeks, after exams and papers, I’ll be on spring break. 10-11 cities in 14 days. I should have my computer on me (to upload all my pictures so my memory card doesn’t get full), so maybe there will be time for something. Maybe.

I’ve been having a lot of trouble lately in general, actually. In the middle of the night, I wake up, and then I feel myself start to burn up. I start sweating and it’s a terrible feeling. Food has also not been my friend. Well, it has never agreed with me, really- but lately, I can’t seem to control myself. If it’s there, I’ll eat it. I don’t get the “full” feeling, and my mouth just needs to chew. I crave texture, it is not my stomach that wants anything. Gum is ok, but not satisfactory. Rahhh.

Ok. Laney just stopped by, and I should probably get back studying. STUDY STUDY…ew, who am I now, Dave?
