Haha maybe it's because I'm in one of my favorite sweaters.
Maybe it's because I'm going home tomorrow.
Or maybe it's because I had a blissfully lazy night...
But for whatever reason, I'm really happy right now.
I have to pack all of my stuff still, but I think I'll leave that for tomorrow morning.
I'm feelin a little crazy...let's go oldschool Greg LJ/xanga and recap the day!
Well being Greg Peterson on a Thursday, I didn't have class until noon. So of course I woke up at around 11:30 and almost couldn't make it out of bed! I think the gene for going to bed early-ish was left out of my body...
Anyways, when I woke up it was freezing in my room, and so warm in my bed that I just had one of those, pouty shove your face in your pillow and try to pout your way out of waking up moments. Sadly, I had a chem quiz to take so I got myself out of bed and onto facebook--it's like my coffee.
I worked out the other day, and since it had been so long, I really felt it today. At least I know something got worked!
Anyways, my chem quiz was abysmal as usual. I feel like I need a major miracle to do even ok in that class. Sigh, maybe studying would help too. I'm totally going to do so over break...maybe.
Since I had to work Tuesday, I missed my piano lesson...which is unfortunately becoming quite a habit. Chin-Fei is such a sweetheart though, and lets me reschedule. Which is where I ran off to after chem. I got to listen to the end of another teacher singing phantom of the opera while my teacher accompanied, it was great! The lesson went ok...I'm nervous to have to play in the recital, i'll probably end up backing out at the last minute. Sigh...what an interesting night that should be. After that I had to literally jet to my bio lab, which went pretty fast thankfully. I really really like the people in there. We made jokes about phenotypes and mating today...aaaand that's the stuff you leave in lab...it gets so much less funny when brought up later.
After that I had to grab a quick lunch at subway and I have to say that their cookies are phenomenal. I do enjoy Jimmy John's bread though...after that I went to meet Matt for a discussion on the midterm elections. As unpolitically saavy as I am...I actually enjoyed it. Probably because I felt so collegy. Ha, no but I did make it a goal to become at least a little bit more politically aware in the near future...maybe this is just step one. A very small step one. Walked a bit with Matty and he departed to a night of coffee and papers, and I departed to a night of (so I thought) Christmas Lights and relaxation.
Got back and the roomie was sleepin, so I just chilled cuz I didn't want to wake him up. Hung around, showered, facebooked, watched Grey's and eventually, after a few chats with the sisters, made it down to food of love! What a way to get in the fall spirit! Pumpkin donuts, pumpkin gooey cake (SO GOOD) and pumpkin mousse pie. Oh my goodness, the food was delicious and the company magnificent. Ate, talked and did all those wonderful things people do while cooking and cleaning and such.
When that was through, headed upstairs with Nico and Dana to deliver a pie to Ria. Had the pleasure of running into her AND Paulina, which was lovely as usual. Said some goodbyes and we all went our separate ways for the night. throw in a few hours of late night IMs and a little bit of packing, and here I am. Ready to finish things up tomorrow and head on back to Naperville. I'm terribly excited to see my family and friends from home.
home.
I feel like Dorothy, only luckier, cuz I get to go back to 26 North.
And Nutmeg is way cuter than Toto.
