T'is a quiet life that I live.

        It took a long argument but I finally convinced Jacob that I should be allowed to decorate our walls. I am determined to get a Cat Stevens poster for our wall. I love him. He makes me feel so peaceful. "Peace Train" was always good but the more I hear, the more I love. His hippy self sings to the flower child inside of me. Jacob says his songs are too simple. Personally, I could use some refreshing simpleness. Life is too complicated. If I need more complexity, I will listen to Bob Dylan.

Our electric bill this month was 350 dollars. 0-0  It is definitely because our heater froze over 2x. Jake and I had to thaw it out both times. (Of course) At least Jake got financial aid...We were already worried we wouldn't make it because he was off all of Christmas break. Thank Goodness his money came in! I am very grateful for that. (I actually spelled that "greatful" at first. WTF? I was confused at myself.)

Hmm...Not a whole lot to say tonight. That is confusing because I had all these things I thought of today and now...they have vanished. I know I wanted to post my thoughts on Kanye West's song "Runaway." I have mixed feelings about this song. I really like the music video. I think it is really beautiful, especially with the piano infused hip-hop. However, I have a hard time getting past that because I HATE what he is saying. As someone who has had a less than faithful lover, I cannot believe he says things like  "Now pick your next move. You can leave or live with it." Asshole! You better leave girl, he hardly sound sorry at all. I love the beat but... I don't want to toast the douchebags with you Kanye. I don't. Maybe roast but never toast. Also, he hints at how much money he has to try a deter her from leaving. All the money in the world is not worth what she probably went through. Kanye...I defended you over the Taylor Swift thing but this song makes me dislike you a little.

I am back up to 2 miles at the gym. (I thought I was gonna die, though.) It is hard to pace myself when people training for a triathalon continue to lap me but they are training for 13 miles. (That is insane! I didn't even know it was possible!) I am ready to improve, though. I gained some serious poundage last semester. I didn't have time to work out so... I didn't. I like ellipses. I notice that everytime I post. I think it carries my voice better that way.

My final note is: French is kicking my ass. I am really gonna have to work hard.

P.S. Have you heard "Georgia" by Ray Charles lately? It sure is wonderful.
