A Jaded Necklace


Of all the things in Austin that are great, I love the names of all the small businesses here.

Juan in a Million, Hey Cupcake!, Sugar Mama's, Home Slice, Magnolia Cafe.


So, finals week next week. Have a final essay due by Tuesday and two exams on Wednesday. I could come back Thursday...MEH. I probably won't. I don't really know what I'll do. I don't have any money to spend. The friends I made will be gone already. The only thing I really haven't done is take my bike around. Guess I could do that.

I'm not really looking forward to summer. Sure, no more studying or stressing about grades, but nothing else to take up my time, either. I can't take anymore summer classes as I've transfered over too much. I need a job. But I really don't want one. Like on a scale of 1-10, 10 being really want and 1 being not at all, it's a 1. I don't want a job.

But my irresponsibility this semester is part of the reason I must get one. It truly is all my fault. I guess I accept that.

I need another haircut. Somehow I went in for a trim (against my will I might add) and came out with something completely different. I don't know my own hair anymore. I might as well had scalped myself and my roommate while she was asleep and switched hairsnotreally.

Uh. So I'm mainly updating because I should be finding definitions for this psychology exam prep thing.

What else. Oh. Well, I've had to deal a lot with someone suffering from a lack of willpower. I've really never seen so much apathy, even from myself which is saying something. Not a big something, as I do work hard when I need to, but a little something. For me, when I feel my ennui beginning to hurt my grades or anything else, I'll snap into overachieving overdrive for a while until they're back on course. I do the literally the least amount possible to get where I want to go. I like to be efficient.

Well I guess that's enough rambling for today. See ya next time!

A Momentous Occasion


Best weekend of the year, (one of the best in my life, actually) followed by the most horrible week of the year thus far. Simply terrible. But that's not the point of this post.

This post is to document what I've eaten today. This is a turning point. The start of a whole new me. I couldn't be more excited to begin this journey.

Breakfast: Air.
Lunch: Dollops of Vanilla, Pistachio, and Pomegranate frozen yogurt with almonds, mochi balls, sprinkles, coconut shavings, and a cherry (for the vitamins).
Dinner: Three brownies with chocolate icing and almonds.
-Nap to soak in the various fat molecules I might accidentally burn off watching Youtube videos.
Second Dinner: Bottle of Green Tea from the vending machine, with a bag of New! Cheez-It's BAKED Snack Mix: Extra Hot & Spicy (its contents are similar to Gardettos, just catered to the most awful people who buy snack mixes).

Because of these real life choices, my stomach has become sentient. I feel like it's trying to claw itself out of my abdomen. I really hope it succeeds. I'm rootin' for ya, old pal. I'm rootin' for ya.

Well! Off to start my Philosophy paper at 2 AM! Did I mention it's a third of my grade? 'CUZ IT IS!
