Guess what! It's Thursday! And I'm actually posting it ON Thursday. Aren't you proud of me? Well, I'm pretty dang proud of myself so I guess that's all that matters. Okay, I admit, it's eight minutes to midnight, but it's still Thursday (technically) so I'm good.
Awkward
- How long it’s taken me to do my dishes. Like five days. My housemates probably think I’m the biggest slob in the world. Which I feel like I am sometimes.
- Telling my dreams to people. I get really excited. And they probably think I’m crazy.
- Being at an SBR committee meeting where I and a handful of other new committee members are being inducted. President: “All in favor of these new members, raise your hand.” So I, of course, raise my hand. And I’m the only new member to do so. President: “Actually, only current members are voting now.” Yes. Yes, that I can see. Duh. Because why would you vote for yourself, Deanie? *facepalm*
- Playing trivia games and always getting question about geography or capitals or famous people…all things good Cambridge students should know…but I don’t. So then I just look like the idiot and everyone’s thinking, “Dear Lord, how did this girl get in HERE?”
- Also being embarrassingly bad at pool.
- Forgetting (somehow) that I was brushing my teeth and leaving my room to go to the kitchen and bumping into (of course) my most awkward housemate in the hallway. And then having to say hello through a mouthful of toothpaste before I scuttle off into the kitchen (To get what? I’m brushing my teeth!).
Awesome
- Going to H&M and buying a crap ton of clothes and not having anyone tell me not to. I got a gray cardigan (I think I’m going to sew the Cambridge crest on it), a white sweater, a chambray shirt, and a pair of uber-cute, semi-dressy navy blue skinny pants. I want to wear of all of it at once! In layers! Happiness!
- Going to the Fitzwilliam after hours and getting free wine. And wandering around looking at paintings, drinking wine, and talking to European guys about art. I felt super pretentious. It was great.
- Not having snow. Poor, Milwaukee. Sorry guys. J
- Thursday in general. I’m always busy but by the end of the day, when I have all my supervisions, lectures, and classes done, it FEELS SO GOOD. I go to dinner. I go to Compline. I drink hot chocolate and attempt to play pool and laugh with friends. And the weekend seems long and life seems good. It’s a great feeling.
- Having my supervisor point to a section of my paper and say, “See these paragraphs? They’re perfect. I wouldn’t change anything about them.” Big sigh of relief.
