I know, I know, it's technically Saturday for me, but this is my blog post for Friday LOL. I pinky promise (except not really) that I'll get some sleep after I post this. I got an abrupt awakening this morning, since my roommate came home with some groceries that I forgot to pick up. It wasn't anything too crazy, just some paper plates and some snacks we both like. She also snagged me some of my favorite sodas! I'm not going to mention the brand, cause then people will know what city I'm in, and I'm certainly not ready for that.
It's terrible, but I don't eat breakfast. At least, I don't typically wake up around the time where it's normal to eat breakfast, and when I do wake up early enough, I'm too busy getting ready for my morning classes to properly eat breakfast. I ended up making myself fettuccine alfredo for lunch, and I did the same thing where I made it with storebought noodles and sauce, but I'm eating, and I think that's all that matters! I don't know if this is a me thing, but I usually rotate between a few meals that I like because of the routine it brings me. I never realized it when I was younger, but I'm very routine-oriented. Whether or not that's a good thing is...something that'll probably keep me up tonight. 😅
Overall, my day's been fine, and I don't really have anything to really update on. I had work today, which went smoothly again. I did some homework there tonight, primarily reading the textbook and watching the lecture videos. I didn't finish the chapter though, so I'll have to do that tomorrow along with the course activities. I honestly can't believe it, but I only have two more weeks left in this course! I'm not counting this week since it's basically almost over. I wish I discovered this course a lot sooner in my college career, but I'm still glad I'm taking it regardless. My roommate ordered pizza, so I snagged a piece and we hung out for quite a bit. We ended up watching Zombieland, and as someone who loves zombie media, I was stoked! After that, I had to shower in the other residential building since they're still replacing the hot water tank. Ever since then I've just been in bed doomscrolling on TikTok. Honestly, for a good moment, I got pretty comfortable in bed and I almost fell asleep before I realized that I didn't do my daily blog post. I've never done blogging up until now, and honestly I understand the appeal now! It's nice to be able to collect your thoughts.
I wonder if people got the reference I made in my poem in the last blog post at the end? If you didn't (which is okay!), I referenced the first sentence of Nabokov's novel Lolita ("Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins.").
I actually don't have a title for this poem, so enjoy this untitled (and maybe a bit cryptic) poem!
There’s a lot of things I’m sorry for.
Yet, there’s not a lot I regret.
Am I a good person?
Does it matter?
I want a garden.
Flowers I can call mine.
Fruits I can call mine.
Am I selfish?
Does it matter?
Strawberries would be nice,
but pomegranates are too messy to enjoy.
I’ve never seen a sunflower grow.
A name is called,
I don’t care to remember whose name it is.
I’m reminded of where I am.
I'm going to end my blog post here since I'm starting to yawn like crazy. Anywho, fun fact time! The tradition for men to be casted as Edna Turnblad/Mrs. Turnblad in adaptations of Hairspray orginates from the drag queen Divine!
Good night everyone! I'm now a Certified Sleepy Sub™
