Morning is mocking me...
I'm just kind of lying awake here, thinking, listening to music. About a half hour ago, I made my sister and me tea, because she was coughing so hard she couldn't sleep and she couldn't use her inhaler again (she's only supposed to use it so many times a day). Poor kid. Every time she gets a cold, all she does is cough--and she coughs for months after the rest of the cold is gone, which is why she has the inhaler in the first place. We sat in the bathroom with the shower on super hot so that it would get really steamy (I heard that helps coughs, sometimes), and I read her the first chapter and a half of The Giver, which is one of my all time favorite childhood books.
It seemed to help. Christina's not hacking up a lung anymore, and at least my sore throat isn't as bad anymore.
Hmm...I just downloaded a bunch of songs from this British artist, Laura Marling. She's AMAZING, but I can only find four songs of hers on iTunes. I adore them all, and I know she has more out--they just don't appear to be on stupid iTunes. And my illegal option, LimeWire, is currently not working for me. *sniffs*
Oooh, and see my icon? I'm all proud of myself because I made it. I saw this unbelievably AMAZING picture of Jensen Ackles and went to Photobucket, of all places, to turn it into icon form. It didn't take much work and I can't seem to get the dimensions quite right, but oh well. I made me an icon!! :D I've always wanted to do that. Maybe someday I'll actually get Photoshop/learn how to use it, as I've so long dreamed.
Oh, and college decisions, that's something I've been meaning to talk about. I've decided on CU Boulder, after much deliberation, and shall be sending in paperwork tomorrow. I'm...excited. Apprehensive, yeah, but excited. It's going to be terrifying to be all by myself, though. I mean, I'll be so far away from my parents and sister, who are moving to California next year (or at least, that's the plan). I can't imagine not being able to go home and talk to my mom and yell at my sister to get out of my room. I'm not sure how much I like the idea at the moment, to be honest.
Guh. Well, maybe if I read, I'll start to get sleepy. It would be nice to get a decent night's rest for once in my life. =)
