Life? Phew! 11-20-08 07:42pm EST


Today had been so…weird. This morning my alarm went off at 6:30am. I probably should have accepted an offer for breakfast that I unexpectedly received so that I would have started my day, but the thought of being awake was too intimidating so I crawled back into my warm bed. I ended up sleeping through my class, and woke up 15 minutes before chapel started. It was so nice!


I’ve really been enjoying April’s playlist once again: http://www.pleonast.com/room.php?&roomID=61118
I’ll have to post my own soon again – it’s been awhile.

Schedule:
- Midnight Madness tomorrow night – crazy fun!
- Mrs. A’s Bible study Saturday morning (*gasp* is this the ornament one?!)
- Go shopping for an ornament
- Help Laura with a photo shoot Sunday night after church
- Take Business test on Monday
- Turn in Modern Writers' paper on Monday
- Do photography at basketball game Monday night
- Email coach about photography for Monday night
- Go to Holly’s on Tuesday afternoon to make cookies for trip :)
- Pack
- Sleep
- Drive!!

Happy things:
- WWI class – pilots were mentioned a lot – I have a thing for pilots and airplanes (can’t imagine why)
- Sat out in the sun for a long while
- Talked with my big, little brother for an even longer while

I have class in a few minutes, but here is a quick recap:

Monday night: worked on my paper until 1:30pm – went to bed after that because it was too cold to type or think (the A/C is still on in Sutton! Can you believe it!?)

Tuesday morning: Woke up, wrote, went to class wrote in class, went to chapel, took notes in chapel, went to the library and wrote, wrote, wrote

Tuesday at 12pm: finished paper
Tuesday at 12:15pm: finished bibliography
Tuesday at 12:20pm: printed off paper
Tuesday at 12:25pm: stapled paper together
Tuesday at 12:27pm: ran to class
Tuesday at 12:30pm: turned in paper

Tuesday afternoon: took a nap in the sun

Tuesday evening: Watched Omega buys and girls beat Arete guys and girls in football (sorry Arete!), ate dinner, went to basketball game, chilled, spent good times with good friends

Tuesday night: went to the Sutton Devotion, talked with more good friends, went to bed

Now I just have my paper for Modern American Writers and a test for Intro to Business (which are both on Monday – I’m positive!)

Life is looking a little more do-able!

Well, approximately 24 hours since my unfortunately lucky discovery (turns out I wasn’t the only one that thought it was next week on Tuesday – I feel justified), I am now working on my eighth page (out of ten) and I am only just now getting Ferdinand and Sophie married – I haven’t even had a chance to think about their assassination! I don’t think I will have the problem of running out of information. Now as to the problem of having enough energy… we shall see.

Currently I think the only reason I am awake is the fact that it is absolutely *freezing* here in Sutton! I am not kidding! I am sitting here with three layers on, my snowflake socks from my Samuel, one of my winter hats, and I am still shivering!
And before I hear and snubs about being a baby, I’m not the only one! Jenny D has also complained about the cold, and I have seen several girls pass by with their winter hats on and carrying mugs of hot chocolate.

Well, back to the paper,

~ Alyssa


Happy things:
- My heating pad that I will snuggle up with tonight when I finally get to bed
- Quick conversations with Aunt Trudi
- In 17 minutes it will be 8 days until Daddy is waiting for me at the metro station and I will not have to think about papers
engelishgentlemanIt is actually rather cool...the low tonight I think is in the thirties...

Good luck assassinating the archduke (I assume that's what you're doing?). 
lyndieI hate to tell you, but if I'm related to him, so are you! :P

Sending you a big hug and hoping that paper gets itself done tonight... and I hope you aren't up too late, either! 
emerDon't give up now - you're almost there. Send me a message when you get done. 
emerthe only time I will have free will be lunch time. I will probably be proofreading my paper then as well. 
disastermasterThey are trying to acclimate all of you to northern winter weather. You should thank them. 
lromanicgood point 
lori_in_paReport back here when the duke dies. Report back here when the paper is safely turned in. Love you bunches. 
stranger_yetHey, you think it's cold down there? What's the temperature? 
stranger_yetRight now in my house it is 59 degrees. Not too bad actually, since when I got up it was a lot colder.... 
stranger_yet:D 
laurar209Love you lots. Hoping that you're still a love, your energy knows no bounds (until S & F die), and tonight you will crash and get lots of sleep.

That was one thing I HATED about those papers -- I was always afraid of running OUT of info that I dragged things on... and then I'd be 2 pages from the end and still hadn't gotten to my main point. Stupid...! 
laurar209"a love" = alive! 
desiI remember those very cold nights. Try to stay warm!!! 
heidiwYes, berrr, as in I am cold. :)

Sooooooo..... I just found out that my ten page paper for WW, which is 1/4 of my grade, is due this Tuesday....not next Tuesday...but this Tuesday.

I researched and wrote a 5 page paper last semester in one night, I can write 10 pages by Tuesday... right?
