*BEEP BEEP BEEP*
Ugh, that’s my alarm clock. Remind me again why I set it for 6 a.m when I don’t have class till 10? Oh yeah, that thing called my health is calling my name to lace up my running shoes and get in some mileage before the heat sets in. Also, someone please tell me why there’s a high of 80 degrees this entire week… mid-January. What the heck, California. You have like 330 days a year to be warm and you decide that you want to take over January as well? Greedy son of a state.
It’s now 7 a.m. Gotta get going! It’s the first time I’ve really ran in a month and a half, so it’s an easy 4- miler.
Cue internal debate on whether or not to read/comment on blogs or shower right away. Blogs win, of course. After all, after a busy week, I have 142 (OMG) unread blogs in my Bloglovin‘. It actually fo’ real stresses me out. Eat a breakfast of Honey Bunches of Oats with milk. Coffee, too, of course.
Time to shower and put on big-girl clothes. A sundress and sandals with a side of a whole wheat bagel, because since when did cereal ever keep anyone full for more than 22.8 minutes?
Class time! French from 10-11.
Secret to becoming swoll? Simply transform into a croissant.
Bike reeeaaal fast to CLAS (a free college tutoring class) from 10-11 a.m for my organic chemistry class. Spend an hour writing down mechanisms on how to form different compounds. Cry.
Time to learn some bio, yo. 12-1 class. After bio I run to go talk to an academic advisor about my major and studying abroad in France next Fall. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to since I have too strict of a schedule and will have to go for the summer instead.
By now it’s 2 and, just so you know, I’m getting pretty hangry.
I still need to pick up a package that I ordered for Kyle’s birthday. When I get there, I realize that it’s 3 times bigger than I thought and it would be a miracle if I could get it back myself while on my bike. SOS HELP. Call Kyle so he can carry his present back to my apartment. Realize how fabulous of a girlfriend I am.
Once I’m back at my apartment, I make a sandwich and devour it. Randomly snack on things in the fridge including my Pumpkin Spice Apple Butter with cottage cheese (don’t ew it till you’ve tried it) and mocha fudge ice cream.
I answer a few emails, read/comment on some more blogs, and study/take notes from 3-6.
Kyle and I head over to our favorite Vietnamese restaurant to grab some dinner before my 7-10 p.m lab. I get my usual (loaded fried rice with pineapple) and we split a thai tea.
Doesn’t he look a bit goober-ish here? Also, yes, his hands are really that big. Monstrous.
Lab time. It involved mussels and I find a bebeh crab, some worm things, and barnacles in my mini ecosystem. SCORE! Also, remember when I sexually assaulted a sea urchin? #throwbackthursday
It’s 10 p.m now and I’m exhausted. I bike back, study some Ochem for an hour, then pass out in bed because I have an 8 a.m class the next day.
So there ya go, an average day for me! Busy, but such is the life of a Microbiology major and it makes me appreciate sleep 23352 times more ;).
Side note: I have a guest post up for Understanding Menopause and Testosterone. I would appreciate it if you could pop on over there and check it out! (Only if you have the time, of course!)
