Birthdays and Best Ofs

Three exams DOWN. Oh boy, was it ever a special moment on Saturday at approximately 1:30 pm when I handed in my last completed exam of the week and walked out of the building into the bright and sunny winter fresh air. And to boot, I walked out with my graded clinical psych paper in [...]

Bubbling Away

Wow. I didn’t mean to disappear for quite so long but orders of (school) business have been wolfing down by time and energies and posting just continuously got sent to the back burner, slowly bubbling away, neglected without even a whisk or a stir but not quite forgotten. This morning I am saving it before [...]

What I do in between bouts of essay writing…

Make and eat mass amounts of Pumpkin Spice Roasted Chickpeas (the smell alone will hook you even before these wee beans of delight hit your tastebuds).

Make and drink mass amounts of coffee. Okay scratch the make and just go with the drink. My mom makes the coffee. Hey, she gets up the earliest! [...]

Three Square Meals

Got a really ugly essay and an assignment out of the way this week. Three more slightly less ugly but equally time-consuming essays due next week. Then exams already? How does this happen?!

That certainly doesn’t help. I’m working on trying [...]

Spring in November and Danger Squash Slicing

Sunday
Sunday was gorgeous. I think Spring is making a brief reappearance. It was basically warm enough to wear t-shirts outside. And last week there was brief snow. What’s going on Weather? I’m not complaining though, I’ll take warmth over snow any day. I’m not looking forward to winter… brrrrr.
I started the morning off the [...]

Spending Dough on Sugar

I lack eloquence in my ability to adequately express emotion and gratitude. What I do not lack, however, is an overwhelming appreciation to all of you for taking the time to hear me out and offer your words of encouragement, support and understanding. You sure know how to help lay the body blues at bay! [...]

Body Woes and Sweet Treats

Reasons I have not written lately:
1. School. I don’t know so many of you juggle regular posting on top of school work. Maybe my time management skills need some refinement.
2. My Halloween was lame and I didn’t want to talk about it. Therefore I’ve kind of avoided the window where that was the hot [...]

Just the Food

School stress and lack of motivation have kept me away from here this week. There hasn’t really been a lot to say though: sleep, eat, study, repeat.
Because of that, this will be a pretty word-light post.
Random eats of week:
 
Coffee has played a large role in my life this week. Well, and every week [...]
