World At Ease

At least for a little while. Today was a reset day as I was off from work and I tried to use it as so. I woke up around 10:30 and then emailed professors and made phone calls regarding the letters of recommendation situation. So far I have had two professors email me back saying that they would writ the best letter that they could given that they don't really know me all too well anymore. At this point I am eager to accept that but I am still battling with myself over spring or fall admission. 

The other things on my list for today were to relax as much as possible, do laundry, and then study some more for the road signs and rules test next week! I started relaxing off by hanging out by the pool  but I soon realized that it had fresh chemicals in it so I showered off and went inside. My next idea was to marathon True Blood until my eyes fell out of my head but that didn't end up happening dully as I was saved by Catherine!

The rest of our day was spent at The Container Store, Cracker Barrel, and then helping her and Alex move into the new apartment. I also got my iPad back which I am going to try to limit my time with. Of course it is easier to use upstairs where I don't have a computer but I get so distracted by the Sims and Netflix. I HAVE to keep up some sort of productive pace.

Till It's Gone

I never quite realized how much time I spent on the internet or playing iPad games until the last few days. I left my iPad at Catherine's house and I can honestly say it has been an eye-opening experience for me. Am I mildly worried about my Sim's game? Yes. I have quite a few elder Sim's who could pass away before I get them back. But, there is nothing I can do about that right now. Catherine was going to bring it to me today but she left it at home. And that might actually be a good thing. You see, now that my iPad is inaccessible I have rediscovered my computer and what it means to not constantly be connected to the outside world. I've been less distracted, I've gone swimming, I went to bed at a decent hour. Now if I can only focus on learning the rest of the road signs and rules I will be all set for my permit test!

Speaking of things that are normally gone, I GOT TO SEE ILANA TODAYYYY! The poor baby had surgery on her jaw so we could only get ice cream but I got to see her none the less! I miss my frand :( I will hopefully get to see her again in September but if I don't it will be December for sure! I know she is going to have a great fall semester of her SENIOR YEAR at NYU. I cannot wait to see where this girl goes
