Calling This Installment...Whine Night..Do ya get it?


I have hit senioritis-land. It is rough. It happened about 2 weeks ago and now I am having a very difficult time even thinking about going to class, or sitting in lecture. I was doing good until it hit me that I have roughly 2 1/2 months left of school and basically my classes that don't have to do with my major really don't matter. Like speech, uhm never going to use you and I am a horrible speaker.

You don't understand, I am horrible. Like I am fine until I have to get up and talk to a room of people, I would much rather be sitting in math class.

I also have hit a point in my life where all of my friends have a love interest of some kind, which leaves me out with the cats (this is not new information, I have always been out with the cats it's just I finally am acknowledging it). It is one thing to talk to friends about boys, it's another thing to talk to friends about THEIR boys. I seem to be the one they always go to for advice on the relationship, and what great advice I do give but I have no idea where it comes from for I have about 3% knowledge on the subject. Talking about their interests of loves makes me feel so very alone and single and anxiously awaiting the day when my man appears and then I can be on the opposite end of the conversation. I don't know if I am the only one in the world who feels this way, but I am over hearing about how other people have met so and so and are having mutual feelings. I'm just drained from it.

Because of my life of solitude, I like cats. They keep me company, they are fluffy and they do not care what I look like, ever.

I am on this diet as prescribed by my doctor, where basically I can only eat vegetables and cardboard.
I have been on it for 5 weeks now, and have one week left. It is ROUGH! Not only am I not allowed to eat onions, apples, garlic or beans, I cannot have any high fructose corn syrup, molasses, wheat, dairy (not that I can have that anyways lactose intolerant)....and chocolate. There are many more things I cannot have. My parents lovingly went out and bought a bunch of food that I can eat and things to make foods I can eat. It was really hard the first week because I had to read everything and craved everything. I craved things so much I had about 4 days of migraines and 3 other days of stomach aches, heartburn, headaches, just miserable. We think I was going through withdrawal. It was hard, but I am feeling soo much better now (which means oops I have been eating something that's been bothering me). I will slowly reintroduce foods to find a trigger but man oh man, I miss garlic, onions, mushrooms, apples and BREAD. I have been having stomach issues for 4 years now and finally decided enough was enough. So yay. I also was on this diet for my 24th birthday, nothing like not being able to eat your entire birthday pie. :(

Also, update on the swedes at my school. They are dreamy as ever, but I am beginning to come to the conclusion nothing will come of their good looks and charm and me. For I am shy. And no men ever talk to me besides the times when they ask what floor I am going in the elevator. SIGH. Dreamy ikea-lingonberry-blonde hair-blue eyed-land, I kiss you farewell.

I am exhausted from school, from running my program, to mentoring students, to trying to figure out how I am going to get out of America and back into the warm foggy arms of England. Yeah my brain tires me out..

That's all for now!

Those dreamy lookin Swedes must be dumb as well as blind. Hang in there. Also, senioritis is contagious. Avoid other seniors.
