Little Razorblade: Pink Spiders

So it's 10:16 and I'm on duty in Ellis, rocking out to whatever my heart desires. I'm outrageously hyper and having a blast tonight, but I'm super excited to get off duty and just relax, too. I don't have any classes tomorrow, but will most likely spend most of the day in the library drawing with colored pencils. I've decided for my final colored pencil sketch for biological illustration, I'm going to draw a Mexican Long-tailed Bat. They're pretty cute, actually. They're fuzzy and they have cute noses.
On another note, we've been watching a lot of movies in 307 lately! Today we watched How to Deal, the Mandy Moore flick from back when I was 14 (an old favorite). Yesterday we watched The Perfect Score and The Perfect Getaway. Some other movies I've enjoyed lately include Fired Up (cheerleading!), Zombieland, Bedazzled, and many, many others. In fact, we're about to go and watch another movie! Not sure which movie yet, but I'll keep you guys posted! Just wanted to give a quick update, I'll post a longer one later on. Promise.

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

Kids: MGMT

Because I've been such a fabulous slacker over the past few weeks, it's time for me to pick up my game and get back to the place I used to be. So I am making a list of ten things I need to get done and changes I need to make in the next week.

1. Get my schoolwork done again. Even though I am finally caught up, I've got a couple major exams in the next two weeks. It's time to crack down and spend more time in the library. Epic study time GO.

2. Sleep less all day and more at the right hours. Let me put it this way... last night, I stayed up with friends all night long doing pretty much a whole lotta nothing. Some movies, late-night Denny's run, until about 8 am. But then I slept until 6 pm (an hour and twenty minutes ago) today. I spend all day in bed almost every day. I need to get back on track with that and start sleeping at normal hours. Going to bed earlier, waking up more rested.

3. Get my Community Advisor work done. I've got a green-eggs-and-ham St. Patty's day program coming up next week and I've got two bulletin boards that I've been putting off. Time to stop procrastinating and start being a good CA again.

4. It's time for me to start eating like a human being again. No more of this living off of pickles, kool-aide, and cookies bull-shit. It's not healthy. I know it's not healthy. I haven't gotten around to wrapping my mind around getting REAL food, like vegetable matter, since whenever the last time I ran out and got pickles and Oreos instead. I'm gonna try eating human foods this week. Instead of living the dream of a Rugrat. (Sorry, Mom... I'm sure hearing that I haven't been eating well is not what you want to hear.)

5. Go for more walks. In this area, I will give myself a pat on the back. I've been getting out almost every night, at very least every other night, going for a run, jog, or at very least a walk. So I'm going to keep doing that because I think it helps to keep my head clear.

6. Spend less money. I know, Mom. I have been spending waaaay too much lately. I just spent a good chunk of my paycheck (less than half, though) on a dress. So it's time for me to start cutting back and STOP spending so much money. Time to start saving and get back to basics, picking up on things activities that don't cost as much money again.

7. Completely clean out my room throwing stuff away. It looks clean a lot of the time... unless you check out the bottom of my closet, or any of my drawers. This week I'm hoping to clean those out. I think that will help me get a grip and hop back on track.

8. Be a better friend. I know I haven't been a very good friend over the past several weeks. I haven't really been a very good functional human being. So I really want the chance to be a good friend again.

9. PLAY DRESS UP! It always makes me feel good when I get dressed in a nice, well put together outfit for the day. And lately I've been rocking out the sweatpants quite a bit. And as good as that feels, I'm always much more productive when I'm dressed up nicer. It makes me feel good on the inside instead of just comfortable. So I think that might help me in my endeavors.


10.
I put this as number ten, but in reality, this may be the most important one yet. Forget about the past. It's over. It's done. And it's time to stop hanging on to what used to be. Everything changes over the course of three and a half years. So it's time to stop dwelling on things that once were and will never be again. It's time to move on.

Pancakes! They're delicious, easy to make, and cheap. Gotta love them. And, actually, they're the highlight of my week this week. Thursdays are my absolute favorite day of the week, because Megan (my roommate) and I don't have any classes. So we can both sleep in, hang around the room, and be as lazy or active as we want to be. And this Thursday, we will be making PANCAKES FOR BREAKFAST!! After sleeping in, of course.

And while I was home, my brother made me pancakes almost every day I was home. He made me chocolate chip pancakes with the little miniature chocolate chips that are clearly more delicious, because they're smaller. Brian liked to eat his pancakes with chocolate chips, a fried egg on top, and cheese melted on top of all of it. I thought it sounded pretty gross, but, hey... to each their own, right? My dad isn't the biggest pancake fan, but that's only because he can't put his sriracha hot sauce on it. He puts it on everything. And, actually, after trying a little bit on my eggs, I can say that it's quite tasty. VERY spicy! My mom is another big fan of pancakes with my brother and I, though. She seems to enjoy her pancakes in the most classic way possible, though: fluffy pancakes with maple syrup on top. Classic is always good. I'll probably stick with my chocolate chips whenever possible, though. Heh!
