dealing.

so i've been sick lately... i'm getting towards the tail end of it, though, which is good. i'm tired of sniffling and coughing and sleeping with my mouth open. it's all really annoying. it doesn't help a daggone bit that my suitemates can't decide what temperature to keep it in here. it's always "it's freezing in here!" or "it's like a sauna in here!" .... [ expletive ], then get a sweater! shooo... it's annoying me. if i stay sick for another week off of them, i'm going to give them a piece of my mind. we originally agreed between 70 ad 76... and out thermostat runs a little on the cold side. i can deal with that. but all this switching temperatures thing ain't gonna be all year. i'm not staying sick over them wanting it to be just right for them every damn hour of the day.

[ takes a deep breath ]

so yesterday, i hung out with Dionne, Kara, and Elizabeth. i adore Elizabeth. =] she's awesome. she's like... me... only white, lmaooo. she's great. she was trying to get Derek to look surprised for once in his life, so she jumps at him in the middle of him talking and screams "JACKOLANTERN!" AHHHHH, i just about died laughing right then and there. speaking of Derek, we were trying to get him to eat [because he'll go all day without eating], so Kara and Elizabeth got his arms and i picked up his legs. and he just kinda let us and very calmly goes "umm... that won't be necessary", which was HILARIOUS. totally calm and everything. but i'm getting ahead of myself. Kara, Dionne, Elizabeth and I went out to eat, THEN we went to get Derek and sat outside his dorm in the hallway, joking and bothering each other and taking pictures until he finished taking a shower and getting dressed. then we made HIM eat and went back to my dorm building with the intent of going to my room, but we ended up staying in the computer lab for about four or so hours playing games and Facebooking. so Elizabeth got hungry again and we went back out to eat and saw Gerald and Chike, so we ate with them and spent a few hours talking, laughing, and joking. then Kara wanted to do laundry at my dorm, so she and Dionne did laundry until about 3 am. then i finally dragged my behind back to my room and took myself to bed.

went to church this morning. rode with this guy i met at Celebrations weekend named John Shields... yeah, i remember his whole name. when i first met him, i asked who he was and he was like "i'm John B. Shields and don't you forget it!" and i was like... =/ umm... okay. so i didn't, lol. he said it was because i tried to play him or something. whatever. church was good. i've really been missing my home church. Dionne's great to sit next to in church. she gets hype and such. ate two plates of food afterwards, lol. pfft, i don't turn down free food. the fruit punch lemonade stuff was awesome. came home.

i should be doing homework. i'm going to do my psych notes, try to start delineating my essay for the 25th, then take a brief nap.

i miss mikey. i haven't spoken to him since the third. =[ i'm going to call him on his birthday on the 20th, but i don't know if he'll have minutes by then. i just want to at least leave him a voicemail.

okay... enough blogging. let me get started before i get too sleepy to do work.

might go get some tea from BearMart before.. or after. i should really go before while i have energy, lol.

...i really do miss mikey. [ sighs ] i've realized that most of the time, the people who i call at night to talk to until i fall asleep are just weak attempts at trying to fill the spot he once held. no one else i know will fall asleep with me on the phone. the only person who's come even partially close was RJ and i don't even know where he's been. whatever.


going to buy iced tea, then homework. okay?! OKAY!
