That feeling after you’ve been unwell and you’re starting to feel better is fucking awesome.

I spent way too much time working on a new about me page but yeah.

I only have one week left of this semester. I can’t wrap my head around that, I’m just so thrilled that it’s almost over. This has been my worst university semester because I haven’t had studio classes or psych lectures, just a bunch of requirements that I’d been putting off taking for more interesting classes. 

But it’s almost over, and then I won’t have any more requirements to take. Yesterday I got a job, so I’m all set for the summer. It’s a factory job in a meat packaging plant, which will surely be a shock initially. But it’s a Monday-Friday day shift, can’t beat that. This summer’s going to be awesome, I’m staying in Guelph because it’s my last summer to be near my university friends. 

I have this art history paper due on Thursday that’s been terrifying me for the past two weeks. I’m just trying to concentrate on how less stressed I’ll be when I finish it and stay focused on the little steps involved in getting it done instead of seeing it as one huge god awful research paper. 

Papers are just not my strong suit, I’d rather take an exam any day. And I’m much more familiar with psych papers, on top of that. 

It’s 12 degrees outside today and all I want to do is play catch. I’m starting to wear dresses, although I think I’m only fooling myself that it’s spring. I’m picking up FFXIII for the afternoon and finishing my paper that’s due tomorrow. It’s been a productive weekend.

I’m trying to calm the terror about my midterm tomorrow. It’s just so goddamn broad and theoretical, and essays are not my strong suit. I’m trying to focus on how after that I can relax because I’m done work and it’s both Valentine’s Day and the beginning of reading week.

I had a super awesome day with Duncan and I got to see Shane. I’m bailing on doing any of my work for the rest of the night, I’m just gonna watch The Walking Dead. And I am so so excited for reading week and Valentine’s Day.

I’m super excited for my new HeartGold run-through because Duncan’s playing SoulSilver for the first time (never having played GSC), and his roommate’s doing a run, too. This is gonna be so awesome, I’ve never had people to battle with while going through the game. I’m going to use a team of mons that I’ve never used before, except for Typhlosion. It’s gonna be Scizor, Gengar, Jumpluff and Lanturn, unless I find one of them particularly difficult and boot them. It’s always a trial for me to not use Crobat and Gyarados.

When I sleep on the wrong side of the bed I toss and turn all night and have bad dreams. Body y u do this to me? I just wanna sleep on the side that doesn’t get used D:

I was playing Dead Space today and Shane drew some conclusions about similarities between it and Half-Life, which he also watched me play a bit of. It was very interesting, and I’m starting to see some of them too.

Sam’s phone is broken again which means if we want to stay in contact we have to be on Facebook pretty much all the time. Inconvenience D: I didn’t go on the computer yesterday because Pokémon and drinking, and apparently she’s been trying to talk to me for 24 hours. I can’t wait until next year when we all just move back in together.

One of my favourite family memories is being in Utah with my parents and brother. We were looking at all sorts of geological formations and when we went to Moab Fault, I cracked a horrible pun (“it’s all Moab’s fault”) and everyone laughed heartily. Because we all have the worst sense of humor.

I’ve been having trouble sleeping since school started. I’ll fall asleep and 20 minutes later I’ll wake back up and struggle to get back to sleep. I have 8:30 class tomorrow but I’ve decided to just stay up a little later tonight because I can’t stand the idea of lying awake in bed right now. Hopefully tomorrow I won’t need a nap or have a headache because I want to be super productive.

I don’t folllow enough Pokémon blogs D: I should grab some from the list that I follow as Pokémon of the Day and follow them here instead…
