So, I'm just finishing off this paper now. It sucks, but there's one paper like this every year. Most of the time, even if it takes an all nighter, I can focus and get the damn thing done. But once a year, without fail, there's one paper that just kicks my ass into the ground. It's usually a simple one, and I just have absolutely no motivation to work on it whatsoever. Then it just looms around like a big spooky loomy thing, and proceeds to piss me off entirely. Which succeeds in making me even less motivated to face it. But it WILL be done! I SHALL conquer! Rawr.
Sidebar: My hair is sticking straight out from my forehead right now. As in, it is in complete defiance of gravity and any attempt to comb it down. Annoying, and rather comical. I shall wear my toque.
In other news, I called translink, and there was no Nikon Coolpix 4600 left on any of the busses. Therefor, that means my camera is gone for good. *sniff* I miss you camera </GIR moment> Seriously, this sucks. I won't be able to buy a new one until the next installment of my student loan comes, and that's not until January! I am not a completely happy girl right now.
However, I'm not a completely unhappy one either. Why? Well, for one, I'm actually getting off my ass and taking a good look at my health. Inspired by my scarily motivated boyfriend, I bought a multivitamin yesterday and just took the first one this morning. He's trying to convince me to try Greens+ as well, so we'll see about that. I'm also taking a hard look at my diet, and realizing I don't eat nearly enough, and when I do, it's the wrong kind of stuff. So, next grocery shop, I'll be looking into more fruits, veggies, and lean meats (I'm apparently at risk for iron deficiency, though I think the multi should cover that), and less prepared foods. But I'm not giving up perogies. I'm sorry, it's just not going to happen. We went for a run last night, too...well, we went for a part jog/part walk, actually, as my body (read: knee and hip) wasn't allowed to run for six years, and it's not used to it yet. It's odd, for the first time, I'm not just taking an "I need to lose weight" approach. I'm actually looking larger picture, and thinking "I need to look after my health." I'm in my fourth year of a double (fingers crossed) major, my stress level is too high for me to afford to neglect things.
Speaking of the double major, I should be finding out in the next week or so whether they've accepted my application to upgrade my lit minor to major status. My senior level grades should make it impossible not to, but if they're sticklers on that minimum second year lit average, I'm screwed. In any case, I'll update when I know.
Anyways, I should go finish off this paper. Then I need to pack my bag before class, as I don't have time to stop here after school before meeting Alex downtown at 4. I think today will be a good day, don't you?
