You Will Spend 1/7 of Your Life With the Monday Blues

I had the Monday Blues today. The kind where you don't want to wake up at 7am and then come back to your dorm to sleep for three hours after class. I should be studying for my biology test tomorrow but House is on so I'll do that after this. I'll probably try to keep writing a little bit every or every other day, depending on how much homework I have. Oh CRAP some guy just woke up in the mortuary. It scared me!

Only one little funny story today: I made a special trip to Walgreens to buy a Snuggie and they were out! My disappointment was great and I'm pretty sure I was visibly upset. I told my mom about this and she said she would send one with my dad when he comes to visit on Friday. I am really excited.

To make up for my lack of stories Here's the Top 10 Things About College So Far list:

10) Shopping for all the new crap for your dorm. New bedding and going to Container Store is so fun! Really. fun.

9) New people. I had a lot of really great friends in high school but the people here don't remember that time I broke my leg last year in Sea World in San Diego on the band trip.

8) Classes. Maybe this doesn't seem like the best about college, but the classes here are sooo much easier than high school classes. Sure you have to work, but no one cares if you don't participate, show up or do homework. If you want to just sit there and let class happen around you, no one cares. Also, the work is easier my biology class is like 8th grade stuff.

7) Football games/ sporting events. It's nice to actually see your team win or have a chance at winning all while being the most sober one there. If you can stand up and walk you will always be the most sober one, which makes for a lot of entertainment.

6) Naps. Classes are more spread out so I can nap during the day.

5) Dress Code. Or lack there of. Roll out of bed pick random Nike shorts and a random t-shirt and running shoes. That's pretty much it. Also now that's it's cold there is some entertainment added to this outfit when you add leggings underneath the shorts, switch out the running shoes for Uggs and top the whole thing off with a North Face.

4) Boys. The boys are cute here. That is all.

3) Parties. I don't think I should elaborate here.

2) There's always somewhere to go and something to do. ie: parties, activities, and concerts.

1) No Supervision. I love my mom but it was so hard to do anything at home without having her ask me about a million questions. "What are your grades?, When are you going to be done?, Why are you watching TV?" I feel like I can just sit down and get stuff done here. Also, at home, I practically had to pull teeth to stay out past 12.

Comment if you want. It would help me know how many people read this because right now, I think 5 people read my blog.
