Yesterday at the duck pond we saw 13 baby ducks.  They were so cute and fluffy, especially when they all huddled together on a log with their mom (except one decided he was feeling claustrophobic and went a little ways away from the rest of them.  Or maybe he just wanted to be sprawled out like the turtle that was also on the log).  It was a ( Read more... )

So, when our apartment complex switched our AC to heating at the beginning of last winter, they left a little warning/notification on our door to tell us.  Naturally, we expected the same when they switched it back.  So we've been sweltering for all of April and half of May, wondering what the deal is and why we have such crappy management who are ( Read more... )

It's just my personal opinion.  But I think they should stock kleenex boxes strategically throughout campus.  Not the cheap-o kind either, like you sometimes find on the reference desks in the library (not Maps though... Maps either has the good stuff or nothing at all).  Real kleenex.  In every classroom.  That would do for starters.

I think this ( Read more... )

Note to self: NEVER look two weeks ahead on your calendar.  Bad idea.  Life is nicer if it stays February for a long, long while.  (Now, if it stayed the three-day weekend for a long, long while, that would be really nice. *sigh*)

Anyway.  I should stop whining and go to class.  Maybe I'll write a real post soon.  Sorry to disappoint all my loyal ( Read more... )

I'm trying really hard to think of something to write about that wouldn't involve whining.

It's not working.

So... 10 second whining session to get it out of my system:

it was freezing cold today and i had way too much reading to do but i couldn't focus on any of it and my stupid cell bio homework is really confusing and i kept falling asleep today ( Read more... )

 I went shopping today.  Yes, I got another pair of shoes.  BUT this time they are practical shoes, ones I can wear when I walk to campus.  They aren't really super super cute though, so I didn't take a picture.  (They are acceptable to the eye, or I wouldn't have gotten them, but I still haven't decided how cute I think they are.)

I also found a ( Read more... )

What is wrong with me?  I have never been so unproductive in my life.  I just spent like, 3 hours poking around online.  (hahaha, I did do a lot of poking on facebook...)  And now, here it is, 1am again, and I didn't do anything yet for the cleaning check we have on Monday.  And I didn't teach anyone about the seven main reasons for faulty mate ( Read more... )

Note to self: it is a BAD IDEA to stay up until 3:30 when you have 9am church.  And it's the first Sunday in your new ward.  And it's Fast Sunday.  Less than 4 hours of sleep + no breakfast + 147 stairs = not a successful First Impressions Sunday.  I was not in a talkative, meet people kind of mood.  So... actually, I think I learned some names.  ( Read more... )

I swear I live in the most boring apartment on earth.  No offense, Rachel.  Seriously though, I have yet to have more than a 2 minute conversation with either of my new roommates.  I'm sure they're very nice.  I just never see them.  Now some people may find this to be bliss.  I, however, am lazy.  I like other people to provide entertainment, and ( Read more... )

They are kicking me out of my desk, effective 5pm today.

This is NOT cool.

I still have a week of work left...  and no desire to spend that last week sitting at a table with no computer.  Grr.

And I'm hungry.
