Author's Note: I wrote this post around Spring Break but never finished/posted it...So it's going up now! Yay, late posts!

I know, I know. I never update this damn thing.
But that's life, right? I mean, I really try, but this thing called homework comes out of nowhere sucks out my soul and makes me want to cry and write really bad poetry.
I suppose I could write the poetry in this blog just to make ya'll REALLY regret subscribing to it.
Ode to a sunny sky
Oh Sun! Lo!
I see you shine!
I see your light
but it never touches
my bare skin or
my face or
my nose,
Oh, I guess that's my
face, too.
SUN. I never see you.
Don't you love me?
I, who am paler than the palest
pale that ever paled,
am in my beloved Ebaugh all day
I cannot even begin to
list all the times
I wished I'd been
outside but had
instead been inside
in lab.
WHY can you not shine indoors
as bright as you
do outdoors?
Lo! Lo! Hi! Lo!
ANGSTANGST
ANGST ANGSTTTTTTTT
ANGST ANGST.
Lo.
There. Wasn't that lovely? I'm quite proud (coughlyingcough) of that poem there. It only makes me want to throw up a little bit in my mouth. Just a little.
So what's been going on at DU, you ask? Lots of stuff.
Naked week happened about two weeks before Spring Break (Which I am currently on. More on that later). While I didn't run, several of the people from Team Kenny decided to run. Good for them! I just prefer to keep everyone's dangly bits safely tucked away in clothing. Someone in the Bullsheet summed this up nicely by saying something like "I just have this horrible feeling that when I'm standing watching and the naked people run by that we'll suddenly land in a giant pile of naked limbs of which I will be at the bottom." I probably quoted that horribly, but the general jist of the quote is still there. AHH, NAKED PEOPLE.
That was also the week from HELL. I had to write three lab reports in one week, which meant that I slept very, very, very little. The Team went to go see the Lorax that weekend and my proudest accomplishment was NOT falling asleep during the movie. The Lorax was cute and adorable. The soundtrack was awesome, but I was miffed that they used the Lorax to try and sell cars right before the movie. HELLO? THIS IS THE FREAKING LORAX. He speaks for the TREES, not the OIL COMPANIES.
*Sigh* Not that anyone listens to me. The next week was slightly better just populated with copious amounts of writing and midterms and other silly school stuff. NOW, it's spring break. Yeah, California! My week has been absolutely amazing and absolutely sucky. The good stuff has been the large quantities of sushi I've been inhaling every time I get near a sushi restaurant, the great weather (suck it, Ohio!), and time spent with home friends. Bad things: work, work, work. Ugh.
My home friends and I are slightly obsessed with several things: Clockwork Prince (a book by Cassandra Clare), Game of Thrones books/series/board game, Doctor Who, and (of course) My Little Pony. A couple of them are still in the barn about the MLP obsession, but --trust me -- we all love us some cute little ponies.
As a result of these obsessions, we've spent lots of time talking about all of the above and watching GoT: Season 1. I'm four episodes in and TOTALLY head-over-heels for Jon Snow. Om nom nom...
After a week of work and play in CA, it's back to the grindstone. 7 weeks and counting...
