Sorry I am so boring!

I don't have much to blog about lately, because most of my time is spent doing homework. I have had so much work this semester that I get this terrible sense of guilt any time that I am not reading or doing other homework. Like right now, for example. I haven't hit a major stress point yet, but it will probably come sooner or later. I have to spend almost every spare minute I have when I'm not sleeping, eating, or in class on homework, otherwise I won't have enough time to get it done. I can't afford to leave everything for Sunday anymore, because everything that I have to do is so time consuming. I even read while I'm in the gym. Yay for exercise machines! Thankfully the work I have to do isn't impossibly hard. Like I said, it is just ridiculously time consuming. Right now I am wasting precious minutes and cutting into my slumbering time... 


But I don't want to complain too much. That is plenty for now. :-) I do take pleasure in the simple joys that have popped up recently. Such as:

*My "soundtrack" playlist on itunes. I have the soundtracks to Wall-E, Coraline, Chocolate, and Zelda: Ocarina of Time on shuffle, and I must say that it is on the awesome side of perfect.
*Figuring out my housing for next year. Yay apartment 13A! 
*Reading the 1 star reviews of Twilight on Amazon.com. Seriously people, these are HILARIOUS. Go read them. Even if you like Twilight (why...?!) you may find these observations comical. 
*Knitting group! I've started going to a knitting group on Thursdays. It is really the perfect end to my week of classes. The people that show up are so much fun to be around and I love getting off campus for a few hours.
*My new ringtone! I uploaded "Exploration" and "End Credits" from Coraline onto Myxer.com and sent them to my phone. I am currently using "Exploration" for my text ring. I love it! 
*Madcap Coffee shop downtown. Great atmosphere and great chai! Mmmmm... chai...

So that's it for now, I'm off to do more homework. Maybe I'll be in bed before 2:00 AM for once!

YTW+

Back at a grueling week of school after a grueling weekend at home (8 page paper that was due on Monday took up the majority of my weekend.) And if I judge by the weather, this is not West Michigan in February. It is 54 degrees out! The snow that was piling up over my knees last week has been reduced to sad, icy clumps scattered across campus. Girls are walking around in shorts and flip-flops, and guys are sitting outside smoking hookah. Everyone has been asking me if I've been enjoying the weather. Hmmm, well that would be a big fat NO. I hate when the weather is like this. Because I know that it is just going to get freezing again, and we won't see the sun again until mid April. I only like 54 degree weather when I know that it is spring for sure and the tulips are peeking out of the dirt. Also, I can't enjoy much of anything right now because I have contracted a nasty little cold. Blech.


So the youtube clip of the week? Here it is! And if you haven't gone to see this in theaters already, SHAME ON YOU. Go see it. NOW.

Anyway, here is the plan. This is a list of all the things I must do in the next week or so, in order of due date. I am setting my academic to-do list in internet stone, so maybe, just maybe, I can stay organized for once. 

1.  3-4 page English paper
2. Keep up with Italian that is due everyday
3. Keep up with readings in Civ and Eng
4. Online response to English readings
5. Italian workbook
6. Online response to Italian movie
7. 8 page Civ paper 
8. Catch up on Rader Terms if I have time  

*hoping for the best*
