Almost Summertime, Shopping Reminder Woes
For some reason I've been in an irritable mood all day. I haven't been able to shake it no matter what I do. Even having a good cup of tea only helps me feel better for only a short while. Normally I would say that it was because of what's supposed to happen soon enough for me, but that's not the whole case. I'd just have to say that its not that good of a day for me. I haven't had a day where I've felt like this, but now I just feel like burying myself under the covers and laze about until I start to feel better. Maybe I should go and get myself a good cup of cappuccino or some chocolate to help lift my spirits, that would be one way to do things. Thankfully for me, several different party stores aren't that far away from where I live. So, if I want some chocolate I can just walk up there and get something.
I'm just glad that its been getting warmer. I can enjoy the cool weather when it comes to fall, but I'm just about done with spring now. Its getting closer to summer, which means really being able to get out and about. What I really miss the most about summer and better times in general is rollerblading and being able to swim in an outdoor pool. Actually getting a nice outdoor pool takes a hell of a lot of money so it helps more if the pool comes with the house, but unfortunately there isn't one with mine. So, we'd have to settle with a cheap, shallow pool or going to a rec center. I think I'd go with the rec center over a cheap pool because we could use that money for something else.
Aw hell, I didn't realize that it was getting dangerously close to Memorial Day. That would be why I'm getting so many emails about sales and summer specials. This time of the year means that a hell of a lot of things are going to happen in such a short amount of time. Che, one more reason to remind me that I need to go shopping for some summer clothes rather soon. With the weight I've lost recently I had to weed out my closet and dressers for the clothes that don't fit anymore. Now that I've done that, I'm in serious need of new clothes. I'm definitely going to spend some time looking for some really damn nice pajamas. I already have a brand of jeans that are really damn comfortable, and that goes with the shirts and sweaters too. I'm not quite sure where I'll go with the pajamas yet, so I'll probably experiment with a few brands before I find one that I like.
Now this is going to sound really damn odd coming from my mouth, but I'm actually going to be glad for school to start again. I'll be able to start over in a new place, and I will already have an edge when it comes to taking classes at a new school. I've already had some experience with college classes, and I've had quite a wide range of professors so I've learned that I shouldn't expect anything when it comes to teachers. From my experiences, the science and English professors tend to be the most interesting ones. I'll find out if that will be the same way next school year. Yeah, I'll have to go to school longer, but if its for a good cause. The results from that if I actually do get into where I want to be will be worth it.
Its pretty funny that I'm finally being able to even think about heading towards the dream of becoming a nurse. I wasn't going to go the Navy or Army route when it comes to this, so I had to hack and claw my way out of the large hole that my migraines had dug for me. Surprisingly I was able to focus somewhat on things while I was in between the pain of migraines and the medications I was on too. Now that I don't have to deal with that anymore, I can let my grades from my winter semester of this year tell the story of what I can really do. Almost that whole semester I was pain free, except for the first few weeks. Because of that I was able to do as good as I could, which was reflected in my grades. Another good thing for me is that when I go to Oakland's transfer open house, the incredibly positive change in my grades from the fall semester to the winter one will be looked at. That's what I'm really after too.
Mmm, the rush of caffeine into my system did do a great thing for me. i really was craving some form of caffeine, that's probably why I just decided to head back to bed when I woke up at eight this morning. At least I slept though, after a few days of insomnia it was really nice to be able to sleep as easily as I did. Adding a good chocolate brownie with the cup of tea I have was what I needed, I was just craving both caffeine and chocolate. Eh, it is about that time of the month for me so its not all that surprising. What I was surprised about was how fast it made me feel better. Pepsi didn't do much, but going from that to a hot cup of tea with milk, sugar, honey and lemon then taking a brownie with me as I curl up on my couch was what did it. I probably wanted to be pampered or something, and that would be one way to do it.
The one thing that I absolutely despise about the lead up to such a wonderful time for me is that I get incredibly tense, irritated at almost everything and the cravings for different foods. Oh god, those cravings can range from chocolate to cappuccino and a pastry to a good bowl of soup or a bowl of potato chips. Normally its something sweet and salty that I like to have when I'm like this, even if it could mean I'd be retaining water. If I'm going to feel really moody and all around bitchy for a week, I'm going to be looking for any way to make myself feel a little bit better.
For now, I'm going to play FFXIII for a while.
