I've noticed that I do much better when I have a good, full day. It forces me to focus my energy more, which is something I find nearly impossible to do on the weekend. Work on Saturday, Sunday? Doesn't happen. But then again, I find myself much in need of a good day or two to recuperate (besides, reading for class doesn't really count as work ( Read more... )

All I can say is "wow." & maybe that monkeys are evil ... yeah, that too.

I like that sort of sleepy feeling that comes after a long, enjoyable day. The one that says, yes, I've had a beautiful time, laughed, smiled, and just a simply gorgeous day. The sort of day which is worthy of telling one's future children about. Of maybe I'm just saying this because so many of the stories my Mum has come from her time abroad ( Read more... )

I slept through my last class of the year.  It was suppose to be a gorgeous time and I failed to wake up from my nap.  I guess I finally managed to completely burn myself out, completely exhausted so I was unable to do my sleep for an hour and wake up exactly when I want.  Why is it that final time seems to kill me every time?  Probably the ( Read more... )

I find myself wondering from time to time if I am more aware of time passing than the average person, but seeing as I am pretty damn sure I am about as close as one can come to the average, middle-of-America child, I believe I am mistaken in that first thought. But this time thing, I find it so very strange. I wish for it to slow down, allow me ( Read more... )

And now for an update that has absolutely nothing to do with my life, besides the fact that I find this happening highly amusing.  The accidental invasion of Lichtenstein!  How beautiful!  How beautiful it is that it can be so easily forgiven, too, with mild international embarrassment, that gives me some hope for the world, not everyone will be up ( Read more... )
