It's a start!

I can't believe it, I'm actually working on my room! Well not right now obviously....right now I'm online. Oops!! Ok, so you know how this morning I got to sleep in and go to campus late? Messing with my routine and leaving at a random time messed me up just a bit.... I missed my bus! I had to walk to campus! Luckily, I was only 2 minutes late to class and she was still in the process of handing out the quizzes. I think I do ok, though its always the stupid mistakes that I can't see that get me! (Though, I think the worst I've done is 23/25, so I'm not hating on the quizzes or anything).

Work was good, I got a lot done (and quicker than I was told it would take!), so it was a nice, but normal day.

I have so far consolidated my "junk" drawers. I have a pretty good amount of space under my bed that has held various boxes and drawers of "junk". I went from 4 boxes and a big roll-y drawer to just 2 small boxes. I can now use that drawer for other purposes, and I will have extra space down there for other things.... I don't even know what! Though I have a lot of stuff, so I'm sure I'll find something. I think I want the two roll-y drawers to contain jackets and sweatshirts and scarves/hats/gloves. At least for the winter season. Those are my biggest enemy right now, I try to vary up what I wear, but the result is various jackets and scarves just around in my room. If they were in two roll-y drawers under my bed, it'd be easy to access them. Then I could put more storage-y stuff near the head of my bed, where it is less easy to access (due to my nightstand). Though I am very happy with my progress, my room looks the worst it has yet. It has a bag for throw-away, a bag for goodwill (which contains both objects and clothes because I'm too lazy to sort that now), all the empty and full boxes and the junk from my room. Under my bed looks good though! :)

Right now I'm doing laundry... I'm hoping that with getting rid of all the clothes that I just don't wear, I'll actually have enough space to put away the clothes I do wear! Since at the present moment I don't have enough space for them, it is impossible to clean my room! The only problem is that I can always justify why I should keep it "The only reason I don't wear it is because I don't know where it is!", "That would be PERFECT for this kind of outfit", etc. At least I do have a pretty good amount of clothes that don't fit and I don't like, so I can get rid of some stuff at least....

I already cleaned my desk, though it has 3 cups on it right now.... Oops! I got rid of two boxes of "junk" from my bookshelf as well, which means I may be able to actually put books on my bookshelf! Maybe I'll have Lindsay come organize those for me, I know she loves that! I think I'm going to have to put my school books under my bed for now. Ideally, one day I can have a bigger apartment and have a bookshelf in a public space that is just all textbooks. Like a reference library! And I've never sold a book back, so I have a lot of them! :) (Maybe I should sell some books and make money though.... Will I ever actually reference those books?)

Lindsay canceled on me for hanging out tonight, which was unfortunate, but it let me get a lot of work done. I'll just have to reschedule with her for next week.

Tomorrow, Rachael and I are going to go see Harry Potter, and I'm really excited because I've heard this one is really good! I'm going to try and convince her to eat Boomers. Seeing as she is one of the... 3? people who read this blog, maybe she'll see this before and decide that Boomers sounds soooo yummy. :P

Saturday I want to clean the apartment in the day time, like make a fun project of it. I'm hoping Rachael and I can work together, so its not just she or I who cleans some of the big stuff. We'll see if she goes for that... :)

And that night Karisa plans to come over to dinner, and we may go to the mall. I'm starting to doubt the second part, unless she's really into that idea. It was my suggestion because I wanted to try and find ideas for Christmas gifts... but I'm not positive I'll actually want to do that.

Then Sunday, I have to write a paper. My LAST paper. EVER (as an undergrad at WWU). Weird! Its in Psychology, about the differences in Aphasia between speakers and signers. It should be interesting, and I've gotten A's on the last two papers, so *knock on wood* it shouldn't be too bad.

Overall, it seems like a good weekend and I'm excited. I just need to keep working on my room tonight because it can't stay like this!! Or I need to add to it after Rachael goes to bed Fri or Saturday day or something.... My goal is to finish my break so I can come back to a clean room!!! :)

I'm also waiting for Anna to come on Skype because we have a Skype date!! Woot!
