{ One of those weeks...}

Monday did not play nice. After waking up feeling sick and tired, and a major flub in one of my classes, I finally came home from the library around 8pm ready to take a shower and wash off the bad karma of the day. 

But then my shower door broke. And while I was standing inside the shower to fix it (which did not work) I accidently hit the faucet knob and was soaked with freezing cold water from head to toe while fully clothed and wearing shoes.

I went back to my homework and finally laid down to hit the hay around 1:15 but could.not.fall.asleep which was confusing as ever because I was exhausted. I finally got to sleep around 3 and woke up 3 and a half hours later to get ready for the day. Lovely.

I have a quick break before a meeting about a group project (I'm currently working on 3. OY) and then it's off to work I go. Since my procrastinate now and panic later tactic is giving me gray hair, I'm going to switch things up. From now on I'll  stay on campus in the library or Starbucks after work for three hours to do homework/tend to other obligations. I find that if I go home I'm too easily distracted and getting anything finished takes twice as long. I'm hoping this new method of working will keep me ahead of the game while still allowing for some relaxation in the evenings. Because sometimes a girl needs a glass of wine and free time to browse the blogosphere. 

What about you guys? How do you stay productive? 

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Thank you very much for stopping by.

{ Back to school }

Time to go back to school today, my friends. I know this is old news for most college students but since my school is currently on the quarter system, today marks the first day of Fall quarter. And it has just started to rain cats and dogs. Should make for a lovely first day of walking to and from classes. Here's a confession: I have bought about four umbrellas in the last year and I can't find a single one of them. So I refuse to buy another. Which means I perpetually look like a wet rat. 

In a dream world I would be walking to school today in nice, fresh, crisp autumn air. Ya never know :).

I'm off to get dressed. I knew I should have laid my clothes out the night before. I just never seem to learn that lesson. But if I had it my way I'd be wearing this:

Also, this picture is making me sad that I didn't think to throw a back to school party just like this one:

Although, truth be told,  I think my friends would laugh at me.

Okay darlings, I'm off to scrounge up an outfit, pack my lunch and sharpen my pencils.

I hope you all have a wonderful day.
