Yay Coffee.

I made the mistake of drinking a McDonald's vanilla coffee today.  I do fine with mochas for the most part and I can handle regular coffee.  Kind of.  But I think the amount of sugar and caffiene found in the coffee that I consumed today was over the top.

I'm not saying it wasn't good, because it was amazing and I would drink it again in a heartbeat.  But I have such a case of the jitters.  Oh my goodness.  I mean, this is why I don't drink Mountain Dew, folks.  The jitters are bad news.

In other news, I started my new medication today.  Provided everything goes well, this should prove to work to my advantage.  As long as I can still write good poetry (the stuff from this week has been amazing, you have no idea) and as long as I can function without feeling like the walls are caving in, then it should be good.  I'm ready for some positive results.

I'm hoping that this week at school will be better than last week.  I'm still waiting to see if the boy with the braces is going to talk to me.  Maybe I blew that one out of the water.  Maybe I missed my window.  But I'm trying to be hopeful. 

I'm also hopeful that, if people mock me for reading, I won't hear it.  (I overheard some things last week; it's not even really worth my time to mention it here.) And that if I fail at my presentations, I fail with style.  Honestly, the worst part of things is over.  It should all be downhill from here.

And now I have to go finish my paper for this week. Joy.

Wow, Don't Have a Cow, But...

...this is the second blog update in the same number of days.

I repeat: TWO blog updates in TWO days. I'll give you a moment to let that sink in.

Ok, moment over.

So, why am I blogging today? Because I'm bored. Actually, I think bored may be an incorrect term to use here. It's more like I'm procrastinating. What else is new?

In my defense, my homework is almost entirely done for tomorrow. This is a good thing, especially considering that I didn't turn anything in last week. Man, last week, I was so freaking spazed. I think it has something to do with having to give a presentation in front of the class right after you've had a massive test in the class before the one with the presentation. (Did that make any sense to you guys? Cause as I typed, it made no sense to me...)

Um, so I need to clean the bathroom and clean the kitchen and write something for my writing class tomorrow so I can at least get in class points for participating. There are other things, too, of course. But what am I doing instead?

Blogging while listening to my Tom Petty Pandora station. I've been having this war with writer's block lately - in case you can't tell from my inability to stay on a single topic for more than a paragraph or two - and so I'm trying to cure myself of it. I mean, having "the block" isn't fun anyway, but when you have writing intensive classes at school...

So yeah.

I have not have any coffee or soda today, and but I still feel really hyper from the amount of coffee I drank yesterday. Maybe I need to switch to decaf. Huh. I'll let you know how that goes.

My sister is trying to get me to try this energy drink called "Bing". Both of us get horrible headaches from the main ingredient in energy drinks, aspartame, so I'm a little hesitant to try any. I mean, I can't even chew gum any more because I'm so sensitive to the stuff. But Kate swears by "Bing". I've read the ingredient list, and I can pronounce everything in it, so that's a start, but it brings me to the question of: do I really need an energy drink?

Seeing as I'm still buzzed from yesterdays coffee, I think the answer is a resounding "no". Yeah, seriously need to switch to decaf. Geez...

Alright, I've rambled enough. I said this was the second blog update in two days, but I never said anything about blog quality.

Have a great afternoon, Cyberland Readers.
