A New Goal

Hello!

Julia, you said in your blog that you were going to write like it was a letter to me. WELL. I think I'll do the same, but TO YOU. CAUSE YOU'RE MY FAITHFUL READER! Hah. Yes.

ANYWAY. I started writing a blog for BedaBuds yesterday, but then I got tired and didn't finish. BUT. I'll go back and finish it later, probably. YEAH. I don't feel like doing it right now.

BUT. I will tell you a bit about my days the last couple of days, since I haven't EXACTLY been blogging. LET'S SEE. Yesterday Eric was giving blood after work, SO I drove him to and from work (because I didn't want him to drive if he was all dizzy from lack of blood and stuff). I got there (to the place where he was giving blood), and I went in. And MAN. I don't know what was wrong with me, but seeing the blood coming out of his arm and going into that bag...BLARGH. I got a little light headed and nauseous feeling. It was WEIRD. I mean, that one time when Spencer came to me with blood on his arms, it didn't really bug me. I mean, it did because of the IMPLICATIONS (that he'd done it to himself, and I had to figure out what I was going to do about THAT), but the blood streaming from his arms? Not really a problem for me. And I've even seen my FRIENDS giving blood, and nothing HAPPENED. But something about it STRUCK me. But anyway, I told myself to GET OVER IT, and I did. Then I drove him back to his apartment. I'm glad that I DID drive him, mainly because he seemed to be really SLEEPY afterwards. Plus, I was happy to be DOING SOMETHING for him. I feel like in our relationship, I do A LOT of taking, you know? It's all about me and my needs. So it was really nice to be able to DO THINGS for him. And, you know, he seemed really GRATEFUL about it all, which made me think that I might not do enough nice things for him on a regular basis, you know? SO. That's a goal. TO DO MORE NICE THINGS. I'm enjoying attempting to fulfill this goal so far! I mean, I haven't done MUCH, but still.

And then TODAY, I had class and then SHOPPING. Tomorrow, the CSC is having a FORMAL, and I needed something to wear. I looked on Monday but did not find anything. SO. I had to go again today. BUT. I already told you a bit about shopping (the point of interest: I almost got run over by a train). SO WE CAN MOVE ON. After shopping, I didn't have a LOT of time before Eric arrived to pick me up. We hung out for a bit. It's a bit AWKWARD because he got a NEW ROOMMATE. And this new roommate tends to like to move around the apartment a lot more. AND NOT ONLY THAT, but he leaves the door to his room OPEN all the time! ANDANDAND. He's always THERE. Eric's PREVIOUS roommate mainly stuck to his room (with his door closed) and was gone a lot at night anyway because he had a second job delivering pizzas. It's something new to get used to, I suppose.

AND NOW I'm watching Taken even though I SHOULD be writing a paper. JULIA. I have TWO papers, TWO projects, ONE presentation, and ONE oral exam next week! AHHHHHH! *panics* Yeah. It's going to be a CRAZY week. But...I've been wanting to watch this movie for awhile? YEAH. And I'm going to work on my paper AS I WATCH. As soon as I finish this. And I'm finishing this now.

Goodnight!
