Well, day 7531 just finished. It was less exciting than you might think for such a monumental milestone, but at least I didn't have to mow the lawn. The point of all this is that there really is no point. Seriously.
In other news, I finally can return to school in about two weeks. This has some definite pros and cons. First, there are a few reasons I prefer living there. Believe it or not, having food selection available to me makes me much happier, instead of eating salad as a side dish every single day here at home. Not to mention that my school actually has good food. In addition, I'll no longer have to deal with a constant influx of spiders, ants, earwigs, and other assorted arthropods. Granted, there are some curious bugs in my particular dorm, but they don't happen to bother me, and I might see one once a month. Furthermore, this house creeps me out for whatever reason. I hope that's to be expected given it was constructed in 1910 or something.
Now for whatever negatives there may be. Well, first, the shower head is a bit shorter than it should be, but that's relatively minor. More pressing is the fact that I'll have to attend class again. Distressing as that may be, it'll continue to be pointless and almost pathetically easy. Finally, I'll have to use my headphones more. For whatever reason, I'm not exactly comfortable with people in real life hearing all of my music collection. Perhaps it's the sizable collection of Britney Spears. Nonetheless, I'll find a way around this problem, as I have the past two years. I suppose there's another problem in that people might annoy me and knock on my door. Luckily, I think my ignore the incessant knocking skills haven't regressed, so I don't anticipate a problem. If all goes well, there won't be many phone calls, either, which should keep me from going insane listening to a ringing phone. Yes, I refuse to answer the phone unless it's planned. If it's really important, the person can leave a damned message.
Finally, I will have Tuesday off, but as a consequence will have a fairly long (read: 7 hours) Wednesday. No matter, as the last 3 hours consist of a pointless lab.
I think that's about it.
