So Busy

Last week, I was able to enroll in my Microbiology summer class at a community college. So in addition to work, I had to go to school from Monday to Thursday and find time to study and relax in between that chaos. Needless to say, I've been ridiculously busy! I still feel lucky because I was able to take that class at a CC at a much cheaper cost compared to taking it at my college. It's a really interesting subject too, so I don't mind having extra work this summer.

One evening, I was closing up the patio section at work when a huge group of my friends (along with my boyfriend!!) came to the restaurant for dinner. It was such a nice surprise since I was having a boring day, so they definitely lifted my spirits. After work, I hung out with them at this boba tea/hookah bar and it was really fun even though I didn't smoke. I'm not that into hookah.

Anyway, I have to get back to studying for my Microbio quiz tomorrow... Deuces.

Apparently, coffee keeps you up at night

I'm gonna F you up :)

It wasn't until today that I got slapped across the face with the reality that coffee is some potent shit. The second I sipped my creamy, sweet boba coffee that I bought after work I had absolutely no clue that I would be signing up for this. It kept me awake against my will and would NOT let my brain shut the hell up until approximately 7:00 AM this morning when my frolicking thoughts and persistent drowsiness came to a compromise and finally let me sleep for a glorious four hours. I guess it's all worth it when I wake up to find a semi-ambitious to do list and other written notes strewn across my table as a reminder of my sleepless night:

"Friday To Do List"
-bake banana muffins
-buy a spritz bottle and make a green tea/lemon juice face spray
-grow hair long and learn how to do unique braids
-save up for a Kipling backpack or purse
-watch 22 Jump Street
-save up for a nice laptop
-do laundry
-sweep the floors
-put away the crap on the sofa

I really like how my priorities are at the very end of this to do list -.-

"Things I Hate/I'm Afraid Of"
-ketchup
-when the toilet paper rolls out the wrong way
-heavy breathing in small public spaces
-poorly groomed eyebrows
-split ends
-noisy neighbors
-noisy people in general
-the Westboro Baptist Church in Kansas
-excessively religious conservatives who use the Bible to justify their hate
-when people say "Speak English, we're in America"
-boring lectures
-craving sweets but wanting to slim down at the same time
-when you want to sleep but you can't

^That last one sums up this blog post.

I'm Hooked

This will be a short post, but I just wanna say that I am obsessed with Orange is the New Black!!! I should have watched it after hearing all the rave reviews but I'm such a snob when it comes to new TV shows. I have yet to figure out why everyone loves Game of Thrones, but first I need to get up to speed with the current OITNB season... not that it will take very long :)
