Time For A Break

So I'm definitely a bit perkier now than I was in my last post. Sometimes you just gotta vent, I guess.

Spring break is next week and couldn't come fast enough. These last two weeks I have been completely overwhelmed with schoolwork, its ridiculous. I feel as though there's never a downtime in my schedule without a feeling of guilt for not working on some assignment, even as I'm writing this. This week alone I have a midterm to study for, 63 question reading guide due, revisions to a paper, another paper due, and a response paper to a play I was required to watch over the weekend (luckily I've already got that done).

On another note, tonight I biked 10 miles full speed! That was a huge feat for me. And the best part- I wasn't even tired afterward! It felt good. I need to keep this up over the break and not lose momentum. Also, as weird as this is, for the past 2 days I've been eating like a vegetarian without even trying to. I guess it's just the terrible food at our dining halls. I think I might try to complete a week like this to see if it has any affect on the way I feel. I can't wait for August when I have an apartment to make my own food in my own way. I'm a nerd and I enjoy looking up recipes in my free time to find out ways to make good, nutritious food. It's fun for me. And moving out of the house has given me a new love for cooking. It's one of my favorite things to do now.

For example, I might try to make a delicious meal like this...
Garlic Paprika Shrimp w/ Sautéed Green Beans and Brown Rice



Or maybe...

Vegetarian Taco Salad
(It still looks fantastic even without the meat!)
Unfortunately, it is time for me to get back to my homework. Goodnight all!
