. . .  the snow turned into slush by the morning and school was not cancelled.

And I'm feeling decidedly tired considering that I woke up at 5 am like a giddy schoolgirl to check if school was cancelled and it wasn't. So, I half-sleepily, half-disappointingly went back to bed.

Oh, and in sewing news, I used the 19th century sleeve sewing method ( Read more... )

Hoping that it snows really heavily tonight. We might get up to 3", which would be fabulous since I have a quiz tomorrow that I didn't really study for. Plus, I'd really like a day off. Even though this weekend is a 3-day weekend. What can I say, I'm still adjusting to being in school after a measly 2 weeks off ( Read more... )

In the past week (well, 5 days) I wrote 2 course papers totalling 16 pages and 42 footnotes. Which was just exhausting and more proof that procrastination really will get you nowhere. But the quarter is almost over with just one final next week, and I'm looking forward to winter break and finally doing stuff for Christmas. 2 weeks before the event ( Read more... )

Well, it's more like a "it's below freezing and the snow that fell yesterday froze on the roads and buses are flying into ditches" day, but still, classes are cancelled! Which is good, because my foray into circle-skirt sewing this weekend cut into my schoolwork time, and I'm a bit behind in reading and paper-writing. So, today is catch-up day, ( Read more... )

  . . .  I finally feel like I'm catching my breath. The thing is I have been sewing, which normally means I'm posting, but life has just been crazy recently. I'm not moving out until Saturday, but I've been shopping for stuff for my place non-stop lately. Things like cooking utensils, and furniture, and shower curtains. Oh, and food (although I ( Read more... )

With finishing summer school finals on Tuesday (which is why I've been absent from these parts lately), it seems like the summer has just flown by and I can't believe that we're nearing the end of August. I'm also at the weird transition point now of watching friends head off to school, while I face 6 weeks myself until I start school (again). ( Read more... )

By the time I finish watching the movie about Robert McNamara for my American history class (which I plan to do in about an hour), I will have spent 11 hours today studying for my history final on Monday. I basically locked myself in my room and only came out to eat and use the bathroom. Of course, this is a direct consequence of putting off ( Read more... )

Finished my mid-terms yesterday, and I am sooo glad that they are over! The take home mid-term that I was only supposed to spend 2 hours on I ended up spending 8 hours on (I didn't do too well on the last paper, so I am trying to bump up my grade). Then, I looked at my schedule and realized that I have 3 papers due in the next 3 weeks, plus ( Read more... )

Do you ever have one of those weeks where you just feel frazzled, conflicted, hopeful, joyous, angry, worried, like every day? Yeah that was this week ( Read more... )

Hello, gorgeous blog readers! I'm back from Spring Break. School started last week, although I only go there 3 days a week now. :)))) On school days, the commute and schedules are long, but I love having 3 day weekends.

Speaking of being back from Spring Break, I finally got the spring cleaning in my room done, and with that out of the way, I made ( Read more... )
