school is not cool

Weird things about living in the southern hemisphere:

1. I don't recognize any constellations (this is actually kind of cool).
2. No hot dog buns.
3. $1 and $2 coins instead of paper money
4. They have school in July.

I've had 3 days of class and I'm already ready for spring break (benefit of being here during spring: getting two spring breaks this year). Part of me is ready to blow off all my classes because we only have to pass them to get credit at WashU, and none of the grades transfer. But the other part of me, the nerdy part of me that likes school supplies and partook in math competitions, just can't blow off school. And that is the sad reality of my existence.

In case you're an avid reader and my last post was a bit of a cliffhanger for you, I finally cleaned my room. It was a tool of procrastination to avoid doing homework (vomit), but it was productive and now I can see the floor... all 10 square feet of it. Did I mention that my room is super small? I'm not too needy, but there are about 20 rooms on my floor and 16 of them are spacious and come equipped with a fridge... guess who got one of the lucky 4 other rooms?!

I think I'm going through pop withdrawal. I was drinking a lot of Sunkist and root beer this summer, but now that it costs $3 for a bottle, that habit has been effectively squashed. Perhaps my teeth will thank me.
