Winter blues.

I haven't been feeling well the past week or so, but it's nothing major, just a touch of congestion, no sore throat or cough (thankfully!). Today, however, I woke up completely congested and feeling the worst I've felt all week. As most people do, I HATE being sick, especially now that I don't live at home—who's going to take care of me?!


Today was unseasonably warm—I loved it! But, according to weather.com and my daddy, there's supposed to be another winter storm or the like this week.


Finally, this morning, when I was in the bathroom putting my contacts in I noticed a growth of sorts on the bathroom wall. It was rather frightening, actually. It appeared as though there was a water bubble behind the paint, I even poked it and everything. disturbing. Anyway, the water pocket has dried up now, which is good, but the paint is peeling like craZy! Maintenance said they would repaint those areas. eventually. oh well.


Last note: my mother commented about this picture of me and my friend/neighbor Johnny.

She said that my hair looks nice pulled back. I'm always hesitant to pull my hair back when it's short just because it's short and is constantly falling out, so it was nice to hear a positive reaction! She also said I look older, and I think I look very young, so that's good to hear as well!

I'm so terribly sorry devoted readers (all 0 of you) that I've been absent for three weeks. But, I can do a quick recap of the last three weeks.

Came back to NY.
Worked and had to wear all black—which I did not appreciate.
Started classes.
Found out prof is taking attendance is 200 person lecture (where is the logic??)
Got to train people at work.
Did two months worth of laundry and discovered more clothes!
Bought lots of clothes.
and slept.

I know, sooo boring. In other news, my rooommate, Laura, is out of town this weekend meaning, the Linley will play. and by play, I actually mean turn on the holiday lights...I find joy in the simplest things (aka, I'm easily amused). don't judge.

Well, that's all for now. It is currently 2:36 am, and I must, must, must run errands before going to Uniqlo tomorrow. and eat, so I won't faint. Not that I ever have.
