ALSO
I currently have 86 tabs open on Google Chrome. Seriously. But not all in one window.... I have five windows open. Five windows, 86 tabs. It's necessary.
Late Nights
Last night Emma and I stayed up LATE. I had a five-page historiography to write, and she had two papers and a project. We tag-teamed power napping-- one of us would nap while the other stayed awake and worked so that we could make sure that neither of us would STAY asleep. It was cute. And challenging. Around four in the morning I finished and went to bed. She went to bed and got up early this morning. I was so out that I didn't even hear her alarm go off before mine this morning, but she was up and working when my alarm went off at 7:30. Yeahhh eight o'clock class!
But actually. In class this morning we turned in our essays, and arranged our desks in a circle to discuss and analyze WWI poetry (primarily written by soldiers-- from various countries) and then talked about the good and bad things we encountered when writing our historiographies, and gave one another advice for the researching challenges that we shared. It was super cute. There were plenty of jokes about the little amount of sleep our professor assumed we had gotten, and we even got out a few minutes early.
Also, it's an absolutely gorgeous day. Sixty-four degrees and sunny, all the rain from yesterday drying up.
And it's always nice when class is canceled... which was the case with my second class today, Art History. Except that it wasn't really "canceled," more so "postponed." She gave us take-home tests/essays to do over break. Also, it's difficult to be happy about because she was going to the hospital to visit her husband, who has cancer and just contracted pneumonia. Talking to a student, she said that they've been sleeping in different beds and she wears a mask and they cook in the kitchen at different times.... but somehow he still got sick. Rough, right?

A few thoughts:
1. Pulling on jeans just out of the dryer... ahhh. So lovely.
2.College was so fun first semester! But I have become disenchanted. It was too soon for upper-division cancels. His 303 (Historical Methods) can just GO AWAY.
3. Obviously not today but, at some point, I will cease my procrastination.
4. I bought me some college apparel for the first time today! Whoo! I would post a picture, but.... I feel like I've just been posting too many pictures of myself on here, lately, and it just might come across as conceited.
5. Spring break is in.... two days. Approximately. It's not soon enough.
6. My family came to visit me the other weekend! It was actually quite nice. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. And them.
7. My favorite place on campus is my bed.
8. So. I have this paper due tomorrow. It's a five-page historiography. I should have picked a much more obvious, much more frequently researched topic. Because this source I found is not in English and it's MILDLY frustrating to decipher.
9. I just ate a Hershey's kiss dipped in Nutella. I don't recommend it.

So Much Sugar.
So many cookies and cupcakes and chocolates!
It's been pretty much nonstop since Friday night.
I tell myself that the sooner it is all gone, the better.
And so continue to eat.

There are some days that I dress up for class
Strangely, they tend to correspond with days that I NEED to do laundry... Days where I just can't bring myself to wear that one pair of jeans once again.......Days where the sniff test is startin' to get sketch.
