I've decided to make a concerted effort to branch out and make some new friends. I don't know when I am going to make time for this to happen, but it definitely needs to happen.
Also, thanks to KC Deane for making me to agree to it, I'm going to run a
5k race.
Just got back from Costco. I won't have to buy toilet paper for the rest of the semester, whooo!!!!!!

Oh yeah...
Happy VD Day!
Got a box of delicious oatmeal cookies from my mom- they're already gone (I didn't eat them all myself!).
Also got my bank statement...and realized bow badly I need to stop spending money and start making much much more.
More importantly, though, our half-birthday party is tomorrow!

For no reason, whatsoever
I decided not to go to my PE class. Literally, I have no excuse. I am constantly justifying everything I do, giving a reason for every action, but not today. No contemplative meditation for me. Today I am not going just because I am not going. Strange thought.

Soooo upset about a certain person in relation to a certain event. Trying to make the best of it though. I can still have fun anyway, even if a dt5mil is trying to get in the way of a half-birthday. Really though, when have we ever put dt5mil or any other lame Reedevent above bestfriends4life? Never. Not me, at least.
Let's just get drunk.

Hallelujah, I see the light! Finally, after at least four months of pitch blackness outside my front door, the lights have been replaced. What a wonderful feeling it was to come home tonight and not have to stare at my keys for ten minutes to figure out which is the right one and figure out how to put it in and struggle endlessly because I can't see a thing. Wonderful, I tell you.
Also, I've been inspired by a woman I babysit for to begin thinking of time in terms of babies born. We were talking about how horrible insurance is and how it took them FOREVER to get her car fixed and she something to the effect of
"For Christ's sake, three thousand babies were born in that time!"
and I thought it was absolutely hilarious. And so I am officially stealing her cleverness. But I want to actually work out the math because I'm sure her number wasn't actually meant to be right and how cool would it be to really know how many babies are born in whatever amount of time?
So roughly 5 babies are born per second. 2 people also die, but I'm not counting that- let's not get all depressed here.
86,400 seconds in a day so that is 432,000 babies born in a day
604, 800 seconds in a week so that is 3,024,000 babies born in a week
2,629,743.83 seconds in a month so that is 13,148,719 babies born in a month
Useful information, if you ask me.

Some friends
I just really REALLY love.
Some are consistently disappointing but I like them anyway.
But the ones that I love, I love madly. You know who you are. I just thought you needed a reminder.

But the ones that I love, I love madly. You know who you are. I just thought you needed a reminder.
The rain, the gloom, the Portland winter
So I'm back. Just settling in, and getting used to my apartment again. It's sort of strange without Malka here, but I guess I've spent a lot of time alone here anyway.
I've got to make a list so that my days here aren't spent sleeping and more sleeping.
Laundry
Restock fridge with groceries
Unpack and reorganize things
Get rid of things I don't need
Get mail
Go to Sports Center
Do yoga in apartment
Set up workout routine, do it everyday
Print photos and do something fun with them
Cook fun new things!
Actually go to a Paideia class for once
Go to buffalo and buy skinnyjeans and maybe some new boots
