I'm back!

DOH! Trying this again. I started to write a post earlier but it turned into a diary of an emo white woman, and let's face it, even I wouldn't subject anyone to reading that.

So I haven't posted anything here since October and am not sure if I still have any readers or not. I got pretty swamped with exams and projects for a while there. Thankfully, school ended on Wednesday and I am a free woman till January 11th. This weekend was my first free weekend since August. I slept for about 26 hours between Friday night and this afternoon. Seriously. It was awesome. For the first time in months, my eyes are not bloodshot and I'm not yawning constantly. I might just spend the next three weeks sleeping, getting up long enough to eat, drink, and go back to bed. I'll shower once a week.

Seriously though, this is only going to be a half break. I have to start reading my books for next term so that I actually know what the teacher is talking about when we get started. The great part about being in my second year is knowing what is coming at me. I already know that I am going to get my butt kicked, that I will cry, that I will hit a slump around late March, and that I'll unconsciously clench my jaw from stress. Well, not really on the last part there...I finally cracked a molar from doing that this semester and now have awesome 20/20 hindsight about how wise it might have been to invest three dollars in one of those squeezy rubber balls or at least a mouth guard. But I probably would have looked pretty dorky....sitting still, reading, with a mouth guard in place. Yea, cracked teeth are better. Very sexy too, I might add. It's like I'm permanently establishing the fact that I am from the Four Corners region. At least I could move to the south and fit in relatively easy. Might not have the accent, but all I'd have to do is flash my broken pearly whites and folks would be like "oh, yea, you must be kinfolk of SueJo and Earl...say, you got that Jello salad recipe SueJo's always keepin from us?" Don't diss it. It's a good back up plan.
