i've got an agenda to keep.

this morning i realized that i really need to make sure that i give myself more time to sleep. i'm taking twenty-three units and although all of my classes have been treating me like a slice of warm cherry pie, i know that if i don't stay on top, i'm bound to crumble. thus, improved study habits, prioritizing via lists of things-to-do, and more tea, less coffee(!) yep, i'm a winner.

i talked with someone today about love; well, i talked with someone today about the constraints of love. i know that i am young and i know that this means i should be stepping forth into this world ready to experience+experience+experience, but i'm really just not in the mood. i'm a solo hand-holding, eskimo-kissing, tell-secrets-to-in-the-middle-of-the-night girl; aka, i like my boyfriend & i like being with just him. i mean, sure. i have my unhappy points, and sometimes these points turn into dashes and sometimes these dashes turn into really long lines of dead-end punctuation, if you know what i mean. but, still. he treats me well; he goes out of his way to make me feel better when i'm feeling sad, he always patiently waits for me to get ready in the morning (even when i'm running twenty minutes late) and he rarely ever fails to open the door for me. he's good. really good. and i'm glad that i have him around to smile, cry, laugh, yell, to whisper during movies, go to bookstores, munch on waffles, and to dance in the rain with. basically, i don't want to ruin what i have with my boyfriend because he's a nice catch & i'm afraid that if i slip and step out of my "couple bubble," my relationship will turn into a big, smelly, rotten artichoke.

and on that note: i have an oceanography mid-term to take tomorrow morning at ten. i'm nervous, but i figure that if all else fails, i'll resort to the mass amounts of notes i'll have writen on a notecard (aka cheat-sheet) that we're allowed to bring. yes! life is good.
