I woke up to the room freezing today! And it's too cold for poor Quizno. So now he isn't growing like he was. It was like 65 degrees in the room and it needs to be above 75. So I've been trying to get it to warm up all day. It's so sad. I got ready for Renaissance and had a big eye attack the entire class. Alison said it looked like I was crying, out only half of my face. Oh well. Next was India and I was just tired. I came back to the room and put in laundry. I got a bagel and added more eating points. I came back to make my laundry change and on my way back up the stairs I tripped in front of two guys and fell. Oh it was horrible and so embarrassing. At least I didn't fall down the stairs, up is pretty bad, but I didn't tumble lol. I cleaned the fish tank and did my Renaissance reading of a book, 60 pages. I got the rest of my laundry out and then went to the gym. I did 2.5 miles in 30 minutes on the elliptical! Not bad. I'm getting better and on higher levels. I want to get 3 miles in by the end of the year. It's possible. I came back and finished studying for BSAD and then had dinner. It was turkey dinner at the Marche with corn and mashed potatoes. It was so so so good. Mmm. I went with Alison and Matt to see Meghan perform in a music concert and then Alison and I ran back to the dorms for 9 in order to catch Jon and Kate Plus 8. It was awesome. Now I'm back in my room and it's not any warmer. I'm going to try and mess with the controls. Oh, it snowed today. Joy. But tomorrow it'll get up to 57! But rainy. I'm still pumped. 10:15PM

He finally got back and had dinner in my room since it was Miriam free. We watched tv and I looked at the pictures he took from his field trip. Then we went to his room after 7 and stayed there for the night. We were watching house shows the entire night lol. That's something we tend to end up doing if it's just us haha. Anyway. Went to sleep around 2 and got up today around 10:30. We watched tv and did a little BSAD, but I came back to my room to shower and finish studying for BSAD. I did just that and I'll take my practice tests tomorrow. Close to 6 I went to Nick's and we watched more tv and a little bit of Nip/Tuck. He walked me back and I wrote down which rooms I wanted for room selection. There's still a lot of time before it happens, but I want to be prepared. I'm going for a single. I can't live like this again next year. No way. 11:51PM

I woke up before 10 and got into the shower. I had breakfast and began studying for my BSAD exam. I went through half of it, so not bad for a days work. I got some food with Alison during the middle of that. Quizno Jr is just over half an inch now. He's getting so big! I did some dishes and got my things together. I'm waiting for Nick to get back from his field trip that he's been on since 9 this morning. I'll go over to his place for the night and hopefully we'll go out to do something. 5:34PM

The teacher didn't show up in Renaissance for quite some time, but it wasn't canceled :( Next was India and that wasn't too bad, at least it went by quickly. I came back quickly to the room. Nick and Max already gone to the gym. I got there around 11:30, but none of the ellipticals were available. I waited around pretending to stretch and work out my arms lol. The girl that helped me out last week recognized me and we chatted a little bit. But I finally got on and did 30 minutes, I really like doing it. Nick seems to think it's barely a workout, but it is better than nothing and I want to build up some endurance mostly. After, Nick and I went to the Marche for some lunch and then I went back to my room to shower. Then I went to Nick's and watched 2001 A Space Odyssey. It was weird. I've seen parts of it before, but it's just not for me sorry. We watched some other things and then got a little dinner at Brennan's. We stopped in my room for my camera and then went back to his room. Max came over and I left to go see Alison and Meghan. It was fine, but it's nice to hang out with them every so often. 11:12PM

Apparently I haven't blogged for several days and I don't understand that. I completely thought I did Tuesday night. Very strange. Well, I don't feel like going over all of those days. I have been busy with classes and work. I'm basically all caught up though. Last night in Bug class we got our little caterpillars so that they can grow into butterflies. I had the gut feeling mine was dead from the start. So today I had a Stat exam and it was alright. One problem was tough, but once I came back to it I figured it out, so maybe I'll do well. I then went to shower and do a little homework for India. I had watched Bollywood movie the previous day: Bombay. The quality wasn't that great, but it was cool to see one. After 1 I went to see my Bug professor for another caterpillar guy. He knew instantly it was dead and gave me a new one. This one looked a lot better. I went to Nick's and we waited for BSAD. That class was bad, I just get so lost in there. I get the information completely, but she just loses me. It's so frustrating. We went to my room afterwards to get my purse and we went to the CatCard office to put more money on my card. Then we went to my bank and then to Quizno's for dinner. It was so delicious. My caterpillar is named Quizno Jr. by the way. Jr. because the first one died. Nick and I walked back up and went to the Davis Center. He ate and then we got ice cream at Ben and Jerry's. Went back to his room and watched Nip/Tuck and tv. Nothing was on tonight. I came back before 10:30 and checked on the little caterpillar. It's got spikes coming out already! Which means, it's still alive. 11:07PM

Oh the water took 20 minutes to warm up today. It was brutal. And I need to shower so I just have to wait and stare at the water. Alison overslept so I went alone to Renaissance. I also dropped off my movie at the library before it. Then I had India and it was a blast, not really. But it wasn't too bad. I wasn't called on to talk about the Media Assignment for the day. That's just about all that matters. I went back to the dorm afterwards and did laundry and homework. I got lunch at Alice's and finished laundry. I went to meet with my adviser to talk about classes for the next two years. I pretty much knew everything he told me though. That's ok. At least I got it right. I got back to the dorm and changed to go to the gym. I did the elliptical for 30 minutes again. I went 2.25 miles and burned 242 calories! I came back and ate some girl scout cookies. Oops... I finished my bug project and it looks awesome! It was easy but tedious. I got dinner and saw Nick for maybe 5 minutes and then I came back to the room. I didn't really have much to work on. Miriam left so I liked that. I went with Alison to Staples and then we watched Jon and Kate Plus 8. I love that show. Now I'm going to go to sleep early early. 10:!1PM

So I went over to Nick's around 1 and his mom came to get us. We went downtown and ate at Vermont Pub and Brewery. It was good, but I only got a burger. Then we took the scenic route to Wal-Mart. It was pretty and such a nice day out. I got the thing's I needed and then we stopped at Rite Aid for her. She dropped us back off at my room so that I could unload my stuff. I got some water so Nick got to carry that up lol. We went to his room briefly and then went downtown for a little bit. We came back up and Max stopped over for a while. Then Nick and I watched our own movies haha. I watched my India movie, Water, which I liked and then he watched one on his laptop. He went downtown with Max and I stayed in. He came back around 12 and we watched tv for an hour or so. Today we got up at 11 and I went back to my room. I cleaned up and did my Stats homework. I had a meeting for India with Alex and that was real short. We don't have a big part in it, but still had to help out. He's doing the intro and I'm helping him. I came back and wrote up 2 blurbs/essays for India. Then I began my Bug project. It's looking good, but it's creepy looking up insects on the web. Some are just gross and scary. Can't wait to get to the butterfly category! lol. 11:26PM

I went over to Nick's last night. We watched We Own the Night and then Dan in Real Life. They were both pretty good. Then we turned on the tv and I forced him to watch the Sound of Music lol. We met up with Max around 11 and went downtown to the usual house. It was fun and I made some new friends so thats good. Nick and I walked back up the hill. The ice was everywhere and my poor Nick fell down and scraped up his hand! It was scary. Well not really, but it looked bad and I just wanted him to clean it up. He's fine now. Handled it better then I would have haha. We went to sleep maybe around 2. We got up today around 10 and I came back to my place to shower. We are to go have lunch with his mom. I did some more Stats and I'll probably go to Nick's kinda soon. Then we'll see if his mom can run us around to Williston or so real quick. 12:28PM

Alison's printer wasn't working so I printed out her paper. In exchange she bought me a latte. Good deal to me! lol. We had Renaissance and she sat next to me this time, hah. Next was India. We've got this huge group project. No kidding, 20 people are in my group. Then we divided up into mini groups. I really don't want to do this, but at least I'm with my class friend. After class I went to the library to check out a movie for India. It's Water and the professor likes it, so hopefully I will too. And I have to do it this way since the scheduled movie times are when I'm in Bug class. I got a bagel at Alice's and then went to my room to do homework. I finished BSAD and started Stat. Nick came over and we walked to the gym. It was cold! We made it after a few minutes and navigated through the tunnels to the workout area. I got some help for what to do and decided to go on the elliptical for 30 minutes. It was fun. I enjoyed it and Nick did some other things there. I burned maybe 200 calories and then we went to Harris Millis for dinner and I ate probably 200 times 3 or 4 of what I burned off haha. Oh well. Nick got his things in my room and I showered up. Now I'm going to finish getting ready and go over to Nick's for the night. The goal is to get into a routine with the gym. I think I might do a Monday, Wednesday, Friday thing. 3:52PM

I got 8 hours of sleep last night. So I didn't need a nap today! Woohoo! Okay so I had Stats and it was long and I watched the snow come down, even though it is the first day of Spring. I want it to get warm. Sadly I have about another month to go first. It's going to be in the 20s tomorrow, which is the epitome of Spring if you ask me. I then went to Nick's room for another meeting with Max, but it won't continue after today. I missed lunch because of it and went to BSAD with Nick. We have just communication problems in there. It's really difficult. Went back to Nick's room caused I was stressed out and we relaxed by watching One Tree Hill. I left after 4 and came back to my room. Oh I got an early dinner at the Marche since I was starving. I worked and finished my Renaissance paper. It looks really good! Then I did my India reading/called home/watched Lost. I'm done though and will go to bed pronto. Oh and our fire alarm went off today. It was a blast. I don't know what caused it, but we all had to go outside as usual. I think that's only the 3rd one I've gone through here, which is quite a change from last year. 10:58PM

Woke up around 7:20 and nearly froze in the shower since they take so long to warm up. It does a fake warmness, but then it gets really cold and then finally the warm water kicks back in and you're set. It's a dirty trick. Well I had Renaissance and Alison decided not to sit next to me, but instead to her new friend. I chose not to, because I have a better view of the board in the old seat and I can't see through people in the new area. So, sorry. We'll see what side she chooses lol. I then had India and that was ok too. I walked down to the History department house and went to talk to my Renaissance teacher about my paper. She read through it and it went really well. She actually liked it and it felt so good. What a complete turn around of a response compared to last time. I left and got soaked in the rain on the way back. I got a bagel again at Alice's and went to my room to work. I did a lot of reading, but also figured out which classes I could take next semester. Basically, all of them will be on Tuesday, Thursday and only one class on Monday and Wednesday, that's just how the business classes are working out. So no Friday classes for me! I still want to meet with my adviser first though. I had to take another hour nap because I was falling asleep in my chair. I just can't seem to get in 8 hours of sleep a night, and 7 or 7.5 isn't enough for me. Well I got up for bug class, but Alison and I first stopped for dinner at various places. We ate and then got lattes. The lady wanted to give me a hot chocolate, which would be ok, but I paid for something more than a hot chocolate and I'm not exactly rich on points. So I can't have it go to waste. They fixed my order, and felt sorry for Alison cause she had to wait, so they gave her a cookie. Come on. Anyway, we went to Bug class and it was good. She left half way through cause she's been hanging out with a new boy instead of doing her homework. I don't even do that, not really lol. I've got my priorities straight. I went to Nick's afterwards and watched Big Brother and South Park. Max came over for a tiny bit but he left and then so did I, to get soaked in the rain again. I need rain boots so badly because I'm tired of my feet always getting wet now. 11:16PM

Let's see, I started off with Stats and that was quite long. Oh I was trying to wear fancy shoes since it was dry out, but my feet were killing so I had to go back to my room and change shoes. I took the opportunity to get a delicious bagel from Alice's. I went to Nick's and read some BSAD. I took an hour nap also. We went to BSAD and that wasn't so bad. He came with me back to my room to get some colored pencils from me. He left and I did my homework. I had lasagna for dinner tonight. It was quite good but also a tiny portion. I pretty much finished my paper too. It's about 4 pages, but I'm stuck on the conclusion. Not the best part to be stuck on. But I'll still go talk to the professor tomorrow about it. I'm pretty please with it though. I think this time I'm going in with a solid piece. Sure it might need some work, but it's not as bad as the last one. So I went to Nick's and we did some BSAD homework and then watched Big Brother and some other shows. We're planning on going to the gym this Friday. I'm a little nervous, since I've never been. Ahahaha. I've only had PE there and then we've played tennis, but that's not the real workout area. So I don't know how it's going to go down. I've been lifting a few 5 lb weights to knock the flub off my upper arms. And yes, I really do need to do it. It moves too much lol. 11:27PM

Of course I couldn't fall asleep last night. And it wasn't because of coughing for once! I just couldn't. I got up today early early and got ready for class. I got a free latte with Alison and then we went to Renaissance. We passed around a 300 year old book which was really cool. I was basically afraid to open it more than an inch lol. Then it was India. I was tired in those classes. I got a hot dog at Alice's and I need to get more mustard, because it's almost out and I think it might have gone bad... Hm... Well I did my laundry and cleaned the fish tank and then I did my Renaissance reading. I went with Alison to do some errands. We went all over the place. Got back after an hour and I sat down to attempt to write my essay. I just didn't want to do it. I did a lot of research and found some good websites. I got through half of it today and it's two pages. I'll finish the rest tomorrow. I also didn't (AGAIN) get in to the Art of Photography program. I mean come on!!! It's the same chick as last year. I can't believe it again! I mean do you have to be an art student to get into the damn thing? I was so pissed. Again. I don't know what I'm going to do for living next year. Right now I have like 5 options lol. Maybe not really, but nothing is set in stone whatsoever. I had dinner and then went to Nick's to get away from my room. I also watched an hour of Jon and Kate Plus 8 because those kids are too cute. And now I'm back and I am going to sleep. 11:34PM

I'd like to go to sleep soon, so I'll run through this quickly. I fell asleep around 11 and got up at 2:30. It's just what I do lol. I showered and finished packing with 30 minutes to spare. Damn, oh well. We all left the house at 4:30 and drove to the airport. Mom parked the car while I checked in with dad. We met up and said our goodbyes. I went through security fine and bought a magazine at the store there. Then I got a blueberry muffin and a water. I sat down to eat and waited. We left on time at 6:40. I made it in Atlanta around 9 their time. I went to my next gate and searched for a place to eat. I got a small meal at Popeyes and then went to the gate. I read my magazine. Then we boarded and left on time again! I couldn't believe it. A world of a difference from trying to get home. We landed before 1:30 and I met up with Nick and his dad. Now, I just need my luggage. And it came!! Yay! A solid trip. This one took 7 hours, coming home took 23 hours. Yeah. What a difference. We drove to school and Nick helped me bring up my bags. I unpacked and then we went to his dorm. I had lunch and then took a nap while he played with his new computer. I woke up several hours later and then we had dinner after 7. We came back for Big Brother and some trashy MTV/VH1 shows. I'm back in the dorm with Mir Mir and unpacked fully. Well enough that I can sleep soundly. The fish is somehow still alive and now I'm going to sleep. 11:28PM

Last day in Louisiana. I slept in till 11 and it was wonderful. I showered and had breakfast. Then, I did nothing. Well I went on the computer and put up more pictures on my flickr account. Then I went with mom for some shopping. We went to the new Perkins Rowe area. Not much more had opened in the two months I was gone. Well, a few stores. One I liked was Frock Candy. Had some really cute things in it. I got two skirts and a top. Not bad prices, what I don't mind paying anyway. We looked elsewhere, but I didn't want anything more. We then went to Target where I needed a new eyelash curler. And we stocked up on easter candy too. We went home and picked up dad to go eat some dinner. Afterwards we came back and I talked to Nick and began to pack up. One suitcase is pretty much all food, lol it's great. I'm hoping for an easier traveling experience tomorrow, but anything can happen. The weather finally looks good though. 9:45PM

Now to finish the rest of the vacation story: On Tuesday we got up at a nice time. I made pancakes and Nick ate 9 of them. I was blown away by that. We began our day by driving through LSU and seeing the stadium with other buildings. Before I knew it, we were downtown. I turned around to head towards the dentist. We arrived a little early, but went in anyway. I had a filling ish put in. It wasn't a full blown one, but took next to no time and I didn't need to be numbed. Nick and I then went to eat at La Madeleine's. My favorite sandwich is back on the menu and it was absolutely delicious. Mmm! We drove around looking for a touristy store, but I honestly couldn't find a thing. They just don't exist down here. I even asked around for help. We went back downtown and parked. We walked to the Old Governor's mansion and explored that before it closed at 4. Next was the State Capital. Sadly the tower was closed and we'd have to come back another day. We still looked around on the first floor though. We stopped at Smoothie King before going back to my car. We then drove to the Myrtles to take a tour of the haunted house. When we got there we saw that they had already closed. Ugh. And the guy on the phone said they would be open. Driving all that way for nothing, but we'd be back another day. On the way home we went to Wal-Mart and Nick got a cheap cowboy hat. He just really wanted one lol. And it doesn't look too bad on him either haha. We got home and watched One Tree Hill. Outback was brought home by my dad and then we all watched Big Brother. On Wednesday we got ready kinda early. We left at 10 for Pass Christian, MS to see the Gulf of Mexico and maybe some Katrina damage still. Granted it has been 2 years since I was last there, but that place was ripped to shreds, so who knows. Two hours later and a stop at McDonalds, we made it. The destruction left were only foundation slabs and some ugly trees. most houses had been built back up, but my friend's house was still under construction. I pulled to the side of the road so that we could walk along the beach and touch the water. It was pretty cold. Jumped back into the car because we had a schedule to keep to. Next on the list was to drive an hour back into Louisiana and visit the Abita Springs beer factory. We made it right on time after I passed the place up 3 times. It just didn't have a sign outside. It was a really cool place and we were the first official Wednesday tour ever! We left after about 45 minutes and drove back to Baton Rouge. Got a meal at Sonic since Nick had never had the food before and came home. We showered up and then went to Jamie's. We arrived late, but that's ok. I parked and we went inside. Hung out for a little bit and I changed into one of Amber's dresses. Then we went to go eat at some restaurant, but it was too busy and a little pricey. We then went to Macaroni Grill. A step down, but it was quick and filling. Then we went to Juban's for the next two hours and had a nice time there. Then it was back to Jamie's apartment. Nick drove us home around 12:30. Yesterday, Thursday: we got up early again and left the house at 10. We got downtown and rode the elevators to the top of the State Capital. We explored the top level and took some pictures. We left for the Myrtles, but missed the 12 o'clock tour by about 3 minutes. Ugh. We bought tickets anyway and drove down the road to a vintage store. Nick got a flag, an alligator body part, and some alligator jerky (on our list of things to do). I drove back to the Myrtles and our tour started at 1. It was cool and nice to be back. We had a small group so that was nice too. Nothing spooky happened though. We left and went to eat in town at the Magnolia Cafe. It was so good. Since we were there, we drove by the Rosedown Plantation also, but it was 10 bucks to go inside of it, so oh well. We drove back to Baton Rouge and stopped at LSU to see Mike the Tiger. I had some parking issues around there, but we made it. Next was to visit a swamp. We had plans to go on a big alligator bayou tour later that evening, but they canceled on us because of the weather. That was unbelievable since it was gorgeous outside. We settled with the Bluebonnet swamp and took a small hike. When that was over we went to Academy so that I could buy some weights in order to work out my arms. They aren't pretty. We came home finally to watch some old tv we taped and I took a nap. I was just exhausted. Mom cooked us dinner and we later watched Lost and Nip/Tuck. Nick packed his things up and we went to sleep. Today we got up after 6 and left the house around 6:30 for New Orleans. We made it and I had to say bye to Nick. I'll see him again in 2 days, but it was still sad. The house seems empty now without him. Dad and I drove back and stopped at Jay's for some delicious dough nuts. We got home and I just relaxed the day away looking at my pictures and doing nothing. I'm still really tired since I couldn't sleep last night,. I tried napping, but I start coughing as soon as I lay down. I'm still sick, but finally seeing good improvement. 4:35PM

Well I felt like I would throw up again so I had to concentrate the whole way home back to Baton Rouge. Somehow we made it and as soon as I got to my bathroom I got sick again. It sucked so much. I unpacked a little and showered. I really needed one of those. I got sick again and wasn't sure what was going on with me. That was the last time, so I think I was just so stressed out from the whole ordeal. Or, I swallowed too much snot. Ahahaha. Graphic, I know. I wanted to at least eat some Jambalaya, so I managed to crawl to the car and drive him over there. We got food and headed back home to eat. Then we tried to watch some Nip/Tuck since I just needed to rest. I ended up sleeping for like 3 hours I guess. Maybe more. We got up around 6 and it was too late to do anything. We watched a little more tv and then Big Brother. Mom wanted to meet us for dinner, so that's where we went next. Luckily after the nap, I felt a whole lot better, but wasn't up for eating Mexican, so I just had a soda and a few chips. We drove back home and went to bed at a reasonable hour after some tv viewing. Monday: We got up around 9 and showered up. We had breakfast and then figured out what to do for the day. We got our maps prepared and got some snacks for the ride. I felt much better by the way. We left just after 11 and went to the Global Wildlife Center. We got there just an hour later and saw maybe 8-10 school buses. I was so scared that the tour was full and the seats were on a first come first served basis. Luckily they were on an earlier ride. We got in fine and waited for it to begin. We got our cup of feed and I was determined to not be the kid that loses their cup within five minutes by feeding the animals. Guess what, I was that kid. Some giant cow like beast ripped it right out of my hands :( Nick saved the day and gave me his tough. I loved feeding the llamas. After about an hour and a half we left and drove back to town. We stopped at the new Bass Pro place. It was just ridiculous. So over the top but left you in complete awe. It was a neat place. I may never buy anything there, but it was cool to walk around the giant building. Then we got Cane's for lunch and that was some good fried chicken. We came back home briefly and then went to the mall. I was shocked at how many stores were just completely shut down. It really sucked. We saw the new Apple store and it was pretty cool. Then we went to Best Buy to get a GH3 fix, but it wasn't working haha. Then we came home and got dinner with my dad at Cafe American. I hadn't been there in years and it wasn't that special. Ah well. Then we went to Wal-Mart and back home for some fun tv. More story tomorrow. 11:59PM

It was the worst experience ever to get home. It was one thing after the other. I got up at 7 and showered up. I had plenty of time to get ready so I finished packing and managed to watch a little tv too. Close to 10 Nick came over to help me with my luggage. It had snowed a little during the night, but it turned in to mostly icey crusty stuff. And no one was around to plow it, so it was so hard to pull my stuff across campus. It seriously took double the time. We got there and he packed up his stuff. Then at 11 we had to leave. Omg. It was even harder because we had to go up hill in the ice. We ended up watching the bus go right by us. It was so painful. Nick had me call a cab. They said they were coming, but 30 minutes later in the freezing cold, the bus came. So we just got on that. I was nearly frozen in my light jacket. I had a slight break down on the bus, but we finally made it to the airport. I saw that my first flight was canceled. :( Ugh. Delta didn't really help me at all. It's a Saturday remember, and they said the next flight out was Monday. ..excuse me? So I tried to get on Nick's flight with a transfer, but this one guy just wouldn't have it. So I went back 5 minutes later and this guy said there was a spot open. I rushed back into Delta, but I wouldn't be able to get on the 2nd flight. I was stuck again. I went to Jet Blue and they gave me a seat fine. Good, I had a flight. After an hour and a half of this, Nick and I went to have lunch. I decided to go to my terminal around 3 since my flight was delayed and I wanted to be there if any information came up. I had a coughing attack and rushed to the bathroom. I came out and heard them calling my name. I went to the desk. My second flight was canceled and I'd have to stay overnight in JFK and take the morning flight out to New Orleans. Ugh. My flight continued to be delayed as JFK was at a complete standstill. It was suppose to leave at 3pm. By 8pm, they gave us pizza and drinks for dinner. That was great. Everyone was able to get 2 pieces. Finally after 11 we left Burlington. It was really bumpy trying to get into NYC. But we landed safely. I didn't know where to go since I had 7 hours still before my next flight. It was past midnight so I found a chair and tried to go to sleep. I was so sick. My nose was running and my head hurt from the pressure. I then moved to the floor, but it was so cold in the place. Someone threw me a blanket to keep and that was really nice. I slept on and off, but luckily it was day light savings time so that was one less hour I had to go through. At 7:35 we left JFK for New Orleans. I threw up in the bathroom on the flight I felt so horrible. We finally landed and I met up with Nick and my dad. And I'll have to continue this tomorrow. 11:59PM

Had another horrible night at trying to fall asleep. Got up an hour later than usual because my Renaissance class was canceled. It was lovely. And so Alison and I still went to the library to get lattes before our next class. I went to India for discussion. It was so long. I just wanted to be out and done with classes. Finally the time came and I was out of there. I went to Nick's and then we got lunch at New World Tortilla. It was tasty. I went back to my room to get my purse. I walked to Petco and got some fish food for when I'm on vacation. I then walked to Nick's and rested. After his dad came, we went downtown. I went to the bank and so did he. Then we looked around in Borders for a little bit. Next was Rite Aid and then up the hill we went. I got a coughing attack walking up and we had to stop briefly. This cough just does not want to budge. Back at his room we watched a little Nip/Tuck and then I needed to go back to my room. We're suppose to get some snow tonight, but my plane was already canceled from Cincinnati to Atlanta, and now I'm scheduled to leave later. Which is nice I get to sleep, but I don't know what to do with myself or where to go. Hm. I got dinner at the Marche and then I began to clean and pack my luggage while watching tv. I'm pretty much done for now and don't know what to do. I'll stay up for another hour maybe and then get into bed. Hopefully our flights will go smoothly tomorrow and Nick will have an easy time too. 10:03PM

Once again I didn't fall asleep until after 1 last night. It really sucked. I woke up constantly coughing. I just can't wait for this sickness to be over with. I got up and showered before Stats. Class was fine and then I went to Nick's room afterwards. He went to work and then I had a meeting with Max. I felt terrible during the whole thing, but it went well. I met up with Nick shortly after and we got lunch at the Marche. They were suppose to have a delicious chicken ciabatta sandwich, but they didn't. I was so sad. We walked back and then went to BSAD. We got out of there early and I stopped briefly at his room. Then back to my room so that I could rewrite my India paper. I got dinner and then finished the thing. I went to Nick's and we finished season 3 of Nip/Tuck and watched Lost when it came on. I came back and did the last minute fixes on my paper and now I'm going to sleep. Tonight better have better results. I didn't nap, so I'm tired. 11:21PM

I took medicine to quit the coughing, but it didn't work and I ended up coughing for an hour and a half before falling asleep. I got up and the shower took forever to warm up. Alison gave up on hers and as soon as she left, it warmed up. It does usually take 10-15 minutes. Sucky, yeah. I continued to get ready and went to class. It was rainy today which made things pretty icey. I wore my boots, but they have a hole in them! The boot is separating from the rubber sole and water got in. I'm so sad. I had Renaissance and then India. Both were good. I went back to the dorm after class and cleaned the fish tank. I then filled out the application to apply to the Art of Photography program for housing next year. I applied last year and failed miserably, a huge shock! So I'm taking a different route this year and I hope I can get in this year. I then got lunch at Alice's and came back to do homework. I did India and studied for my Bug exam. I got tired so took an hour and a half nap. I needed it. Then I went to the Davis Center with Alison so that we could study. I ate dinner, New World Tortilla. It was good! And we studied and then it was time for class. The exam went well and then we had a little town meeting of our own. I just wanted to get out, but it was interesting. I went to Nick's and caught the end of Big Brother and then we watched One Tree Hill and an episode of Nip/Tuck along with Reno 911. I came back to my dorm, and didn't fall, yay! And now I'm going straight to sleep. I'm excited that Spring Break is approaching and Nick's coming home with me! 11:24PM

Went to Nick's last night after having a delicious dinner at the Marche. I played wii and then he wen to his RA meeting. He came back kinda early which was awesome and we hung out till maybe 1 or 2 in the morning. No class today because it's Town Meeting Day, and so we college kids can go out and vote. Woo. So we got up around 11 and I went back to my room so I could eat breakfast and shower up. I met up with Nick after 1 at the Davis Center and he got lunch. Then we dropped my stuff off at his room and walked down to the school so that I could vote. I was in the wrong line because it wasn't set up very well, but finally I got to sit and do my thing. I met up with Nick since he forgot his guitar. We went downtown to Rite Aid so that I could get some new contact cleaning products and some cough medicine so that I could sleep at night. They asked me my age, not surprisingly, but it threw me off guard. We then went to drop off his guitar so that it could be fixed and made our way to KKD. I wanted a grilled cheese so that I could fill my belly and take my medicine. It was sure good once we got to the dorm again. He had to go vote with his dad and get his suitcase so I played more Wii and finally beat this part of the game I've been working on for weeks. I am so thrilled about that. Then he came back and we worked on Accounting together. Then we went to Cook for dinner. Back to his room for tv: Big Brother, that Primetime show and a little Nip/Tuck so that we can finish this season and I can take it home with me. It's snowing out now and I nearly fell flat on my face walking back. Somehow I managed to keep standing up, but I twisted my back kinda funny. Damn. Well, time for bed. 11:26PM

Went to Renaissance today and ended up getting a B on my paper. Not as horrible as I thought. I could rewrite it, but I'm just concerned with time this week. I shall have to see. I went to India next to take my exam. I was nervous, but it wasn't that bad after all. I knew the terms more or less and think I did pretty ok. Yay! I got out early and got a bagel at Alice's. I went to the room and did laundry and hogged 3 washers and this other guy needed another one. Sorry, I was there first. lol. I did my bug homework: reading and a position paper. Then I tried reading for India but I took a nap instead. If you could call it that since people kept walking in and texting me. That's alright though. I got up around 4:30 and went back to my reading. I'm trying to finish it now, but I'll be going soon to eat dinner with Nick at the Marche. They have turkey tonight and I am hungry. Then we'll hang out for the rest of the night. No school tomorrow since it's town meeting day, aka the primaries and our college gets off so we can go out and vote. Hah. Yes. 6:05PM

Yesterday my eyes were bad when I got up. So I just got up at 7:30 and hopped into the shower. I left the dorm and made my way to the pharmacy to get my pink eye drops filled. It didn't take long and I really enjoyed my walk down there. It was peaceful and snowy. Very lovely. I walked back up and went to the Marche for breakfast. I ate it in the room and began my homework. I was very tired from waking up early so I ended up taking a nap at 12 lol. Got up just over an hour and a half later and went back to work. I copied notes too. Around 4 I went to Nick's and then we went to Cook for lunch. We stayed for about an hour and had a nice lunch. Went back to his room and I played a little Wii and then watched Nip/Tuck. I ended up staying the night which was cool because I hadn't slept over since the 21st! Yeah! Very sad. Today I got up at 9 and went back to my dorm to shower and get back to my homework. I finished Stats and began to study for my India exam. I'm scared about it, but hoping for the best. I couldn't concentrate so I went to the library for a little bit but there were some annoying girls over there whispering really loudly. I came back before 5 so I could eat and take my medicine. Then went to an India study session, but that didn't go so great. I knew everything they were talking about so I left after an hour an a half. Yeah, I waited that long lol. I went to Nick's and we watched Big Brother and some other bad tv. I came back to my dorm at 10 and got notes from Alex finally for the rest of the India stuff. I've reviewed for the rest of the night and now I'm having something to eat then going to sleep. Quite tired. 10:48PM
