Hello, October!

Whoo! Well, actually, it doesn't really feel like October, since the high today was 93 degrees and it was about 10,000% humidity. But still, it's pretty exciting to be in the general direction of fall, right?

Of course, this time of year has its drawbacks as it means that it is mid-semester, which means mid-terms, which means little Emma spends all kinds of time studying, going to extra sessions and tearing her hair out when she just can't understand what a vertical translation is in my math class (really!? I will never use that!!) In other good news, I've taken on the fun task of doing scholarships and am averaging about two or three a day. That basically means that I get to wait around for months to see if I receive $2,000 or a $25 gift card. Either way, it's a good thing, right?

Okay, rant over. Sorry, I've just been a little keyed up about all the things I have to do and continue doing for the next few weeks. Thanksgiving has never seemed brighter, despite the fact that my sisters won't be coming...Although the silver lining does come in the form of my best friend bringing her new Canadian boyfriend home from California, which will definitely be fun. I literally spent a full fifteen minutes in between my classes the other day counting until Thanksgiving and then another twenty minutes counting up the papers, tests, and events that will happen within those 55 days until my sweet release from all of this madness.

Wow! Now the rant is over. Bottom line: I'm having fun. A lot of fun. Even just sitting in my apartment, reorganizing my entire room because I had 4 cups of coffee and am experiencing an extreme caffeine buzz, is fun. I love walking through quad glancing at the different tables there selling food and raffle tickets (but only for a really quick second because about 93% of the tables are for sororities and fraternities, neither of which I am planning on joining). Still, I'm glad they're there. I love the student center, and the library and how it casts a huge shadow on the entire campus after 2 in the afternoon. I love Old Main that rings a bell on the hour, and I love my geography T.A. because he's so cute and studenty, I feel like a crush is a given. Anyway, even though I'm a complainy Janey and apparently so A.D.D. I can't even write a proper post, I am having one of those honest to goodness college experiences. And it's great.

Okay, now it's time for me to continue the college experience and go make myself some bagel bites and ramen noodles. Ah, the well balanced meals of college students! Don't worry, I'll make myself some broccoli to go along side it. It's great!

P.S. You're happy, right? Tell me about it.

You really won't use any of that math again. Seriously.
