In all honesty, today has been incredibly boring. I woke up, my usual two pots of coffee before heading off to work where I cashed my ass off during the rat race that is my grocery store's meat sale, came home, ate and have since done absolutely nothing.
Which is the exact opposite of what I should be doing.
Today is the last official day of spring break for me, and I've got none of my homework done. Granted, it really isn't that time consuming, save for the Problem Solving homework I have to finish by Wednesday night, but still. Two journals, a literature circle paper, two chapters of reading and a play that I need to read... I dunno. Something tells me I'll be getting up early to finish things before I have to get around and speed all the way to my school.
Not only that, but I'm in an online poetry contest and should be writing a script for this round. Of course, that's not what I'm doing. No, what I'm doing, dear reader, is eating a Hot Pocket, reading The Mortal Instruments series again... and writing to you.
This last week has been one unlike any other, the only reason being that, aside from work on the weekends and taking my brothers to school, I have had absolutely nothing that I really needed to do. I haven't had a day off since the semester started in January, so having last Thursday-Friday, and then this Monday-Friday with no real responsibilities has been absolutely glorious, although I did feel slightly crazy for a while.
I've never been one of those people that can just sit or stand still. I have to constantly have some sort of stimuli or some task that needs finishing, there is always something in my life that needs to be done right now, and those days without that were incredibly strange and blissful all at the same time. It's been a long time since I was able to take my brothers to school, come back home, crawl into bed and then sleep until 12:30, and let me tell you, that was something I took a lot of advantage of this week.
While I loved every second of free time I've had this week, I really am looking forward to starting up classes again. I miss my fellow nerdfighters at JCC, and, while I certainly don't miss the homework, I really do miss a couple of my classes. Mostly Award Winning Young Adult Literature and American Music, the YA Lit class (one of the two lit classes I'm taking. Huge mistake.), is mostly discussion and we read a lot of cool books, plus my professor is insanely quirky and she's really fun. American Music is just... well, we listen to music. Which is bad ass.
So, all in all, not a whole lot of exciting news to write about today, and I really need to get on top of that homework. So, goodbye for now.
See you tomorrow.
