My first attempt at microblogging…I hope it isn’t a failure…
12:00 a.m.: I’m up because I took a really stupid nap from 6-10 pm and now I can’t go back to sleep. And to make things even weirder I fell asleep under my bed on top of my shoes…I think I like the smell of rubber soles. And my hip hurts. Don’t ask…
yea, i fell asleep under there..
1:20 a.m.: Catching up on sending some emails that should have been sent weeks ago. I sent one to my financial aid adviser, who informed me that I was awarded too much aid so they had to take some of it back to preserve funds for other students..although said aid was a merit scholarship I received completely independent of aid need and of the school. From what she said, it looks like I’m gonna lose the battle… but not without a fight!
I just sent some syllabus revision suggestions to an instructor whose course I will be TA-ing next week.
I sent some other random emails and was able to cross a lot of things off my to do list, which feels soooo good :)
just added more to it
2:31 am: Yep, I am still up and still not feeling sleepy…my head and stomach really hurt and I’m wishing I could just sleep it off. But instead I’m doing my homework assignment for my “Radical Cinema in Latin America” Intersession class. We watch movies in Spanish with subtitles and discuss how they were aesthetically and politically radical, for their time. I like it a lot and the instructor was my Spanish teacher last year, so that’s cool. I have to write a 1 pg double space response paper to the movie…not bad..not bad at all!
4:00 am: Ok, this is getting redonkulous! I tried to lay down and make myself go to sleep but I just ended up tossing and turning… >.< I’m listening to the salt trucks outside trying to clear the sleet and ice off the sidewalks and watching some old Hey Arnold! episodes online..man that show was brilliant…BRILLIANT!! Ok I’m going to try to go to bed again.
football-headedness awesomeness
8:24 am: Well, I somehow fell asleep..I feel like crud though…I tossed and turned and now I feel like I got hit by a truck because my head, neck, and shoulders hurt. I think I look like a raccoon too. I’m gonna make some tea and do some stretching to see if that helps.
10:41 am: I’m making breakfast and checking my email while I get ready for my class at 1pm. Gotta leave earlier so I don’t have to sprint to the library to print my HW out minutes before class…plus I need to return some overdue books.
12:45 pm: These books cost me 8 bucks! I thought books were like .50 or .25 cents per day…but the ones I took out were special and were a dollar per day..oh well. I learned my lesson. Off to class!
4:00 pm: Well that movie was odd..it ended with us watching 4 minutes of a dead Che Guevera’s face. 0_O Awk. Naptime!
6:46pm: Arghh I overslept my alarm! I have to run to Bible study now and I missed dinner :(( oh well, must have been tired!
here's a pic of a random dinner so I can fantasize about the dinner I missed :/
10:00pm: Got back and there’s a Mary Kay presentation going on in the living room, coolness…I’m gonna go watch my guilty pleasure show: Pretty Little Liars. It sounds dumb but it is quite surprisingly a good, well thought and developed show with a ton of mystery and suspense…when you find something out, another mystery appears. Kinda reminds me of LOST.
11:00 pm: sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeepy…G’nite :)
Hahaha I love this microblogging thing!
-You fell asleep on your floor!? For four hours?? Lol.
-Wow that to-do list is long. Good luck with all of that.
-I love Hey Arnold!!!
-Good luck with your financial aid battle. At least you’re on top of it during Intersession, it would be more of a pain to deal with during the semester.
-Jealous that you’re taking that cinema class! Sounds fun!
-That dinner looks so good! Makes me want Mac and Cheese. Lol.
-So cool that you’re TAing for that B’more class! You should write a blog post about it.
This is a cool idea. I’m going to try to do this sometime.
And P.S. I love Pretty Little Liars too!!! Sooo good.
