How to get quarters for laundry

I pretty much never have cash or quarters on me. 
Mainly because I don’t like the large fee of using the campus ATM.

So tonight, I say “Hey roommate, are you hungry? I’m thinking Milio’s. Cold bread… cold meat… yum”.

And so we order subs, using my card, and she gives me her side in cash.

TA-DAH.

I get food and the ability to do laundry. 

Classes are fine. Boring but fine. I talked to my advisor and things are pretty lame until sophomore year apparently.  I’ve been anxious more lately. I feel like I am trapped here. I have no time limit but I don’t use my time to do anything I used to like (write, photography, music).  I’ve been in Verona a lot lately. Eric and I carved the pumpkins we got the other day with Liz and her bf (like person). I made a cat and Eric’s is a failed ghost. I think I will talk to Eric about getting me to get into what I used to like… I feel frazzled for no reason. Hergh.

This is my desktop. There are a lot more windows behind what is visible. It is currently 3:27 AM. 30 minutes were wasted because some bros down the hall decided to make french fries at 2 in the morning and then burn them. So we had to evacuate. I made the mistake to procrastinate this paper, but I am proud that I am actually doing a lot of research. I learned my lesson to never do this again though.  I think once this is done I will actually read Also Sprach Zarathustra by Nietzsche because it kind of interesting. Stupid college trying to make me learn stuff.

It’s hard to do homework

when it is dark at 6:35.

I literally feel like I should go to bed.

I have half a paragraph and one book cited. Woo.

ugh…

Things I am looking forward to this week

  • Not having Communications tomorrow morning at 9
  • Not having Politics on Thursday at 8
  • Having an extra hour of work this weekend
  • Going to the Pumpkin Patch with Eric, Liz, and Tracy
  • Possibly making apple crisp
  • being caught up with homework
  • Having the room to myself this weekend
  • Friend coming over here to Madison from the hometown 

Scones and Grapes

I decided to have a scone and some grapes for breakfast.
Did anyone know that I had a very small peanut allergy?
Peanuts, Pecans, and whatever, make my mouth really dry and the insides of my mouth kind of swell. Also sometimes my face or nose starts itching.  

So I don’t really mind… but randomly in my scone there was a cluster of pecans.

I am

  • doing laundry
  • updating my phone and computer
  • going to a club meeting at 12
  • working 3-5
  • eating pancakes with Eric tonight 

I will … this weekend

  • do my research paper
  • do my politics paper
  • clean the room
  • venture over to Regent and Park street

Right now…

I am typing away at my 17 inch laptop, sitting below the bunk where one of my roommates hits her snooze button every 5 five minutes.
My desk is littered in papers from planning and sketching out my ideas for National Novel Writing Month, wrappers from breakfast (two special K bars), and my chocolate soy milk that tastes horrible. I am continuously nudging a navy blue men’s shirt hanging from the top of my bed. After about a week and a half I have decided to do laundry (yay quarters), and I will return one of the two shirts I have taken.

Maybe it is the fact that I am back at school, but I feel a little anxious. It’s a given that I spent my Friday - Tuesday, eating, sleeping, walking occasionally (to get more food), and watching movies — that I would probably not want to be back here, sitting in classes for 50 minutes or two hours. 

But I do.

I do like classes and being back in my routine.

I just think that today is one of the days where my brain sets my thoughts into a more whimsical process, and I want to listen to depressing music as I stare at the rainy outside from my bed all whilst wearing a big sweater.

Today is Tuesday

Politics was boring today, but I did get a 100 on the homework which is awesome because the past few ones I have been getting 80’s and 70’s… 
He has not graded our papers yet because he forgot about them.

Puppetry is still really stupid. But we finally are starting a project.

I enjoy all my classes (except puppetry) but I am starting to feel really bored in them. Specifically English because we are reading a new book but he is making us write a paper about the book we finished two weeks ago.

I worked from 2 to 5. I picked up a shift from 6 to close. Why? Dinero.

I don’t know what to do with my hour break.
