GPOYW, Part 2: ~Best-Friends-Already!~ Edition.
Sorry this is so late. Like, by 24 hours. But it’s so worth it, right?! Isn’t she adorable like whoa?!

My professor pronounces the word “America” funny. It is very, very distracting.

Yeah, I know it’s more like a long-necked dog… but it’s the thought that counts. Thanks mom!

8:05 AM. First class in one hour. Really regretting that less than three 3 hours of sleep. @___@
GPOYW, Part 1: 3:00 AM Edition.
This is, admittedly, the worst picture of myself ever uploaded to Tumblr. For a number of reasons:
- My hair has decided to be ridiculous.
- My face is looking all huge and grosstastical.
- My right eye looks like it’s bruised because it’s been watering and I’ve been rubbing it. (I have super-sensitive eyes, so reading in low-light at 3 in morning = ugh.)
- It was taken at 3:00 in the morning.
I uploaded it anyway though. Just to let you know that I feel as awful as I look. I need to be awake in 3 hours and ready to get picked up by Waldo for school. Never before has an “ughzilla” tag been as appropriate as it is now.

GPOYW: What? Why, of course I’m giving you my 100% undivided attention, Professor Ferguson. Yes, I agree, the Parlement of Paris was very important sir… what? No, what’s a “tumblr”??? Edition.
Late GPOYW / End of Break Thoughts

Since I haven’t posted a real GPOYW in a while, I figured I’d combine a late one with some thoughts. Just for funsies. Okay, let’s go.
1. This was definitely one of the best breaks I’ve ever had, seriously. It felt longer than it was, and I got to do everything I wanted to do over break:
- I hung out with a couple of my friends who I haven’t hung out with simply because we’ve been busy and neglectful. It was great being reminded why we were friends in the first place. Now I just hope we don’t forget to hang out again soon!
- I got to see a few friends who have been away at college for what feels like forever, which was amazing. The coolest part was that it felt totally right, it didn’t feel like they had ever left. The whole time I was thinking “Why don’t we hang out like this more often?”, only to realize that the answer was that we live in different parts of the country now.
- Finally, I hung out with my grandparents a lot. That sounds silly, but honestly, it meant a lot to me. They annoy me sometimes, but they’re basically my second set of parents. They raised me just as much, if not more, than my own mom and dad did. I really wouldn’t be who I am today without them, and I always feel awful that I neglect them so much. I’m such a stereotypical, ungrateful, teenage grandson.
2. At the end of most breaks or vacations I usually say “OMG THAT FLEW BY SO FAST!”, but in this situation, that isn’t true. This break felt like it lasted 2 or 3 weeks, not just five days. It was a good, long break. I got a lot done. That being said, I
really don’t want to go back to college tomorrow.
3.
Tonight is going to be a long night. I have two essays to write, a ton of English work to catch up on, math homework, reading for philosophy, and I have to finish cleaning my room. I’ve pretty much decided that I will start doing all of this at 8PM tonight, and whether I am finished or not, I’m going to bed at 2AM. That way, I’ll have 6 hours to get all of my work done, and still manage to get 4-5 hours of sleep.
Oh yes, bring on the tea and coffee, and keep it coming.
4. Finally, I’d like to go ahead and link you to a few of my best friends who I got to see over break. At least, the ones that are on Tumblr. Do me a favor and follow these guys and gals if you aren’t already… they totally deserve it.
