A fairly good day

So today was fairly good. I decided to sleep in and not go to the gym this morning due to my hard workout last night. I woke up at around 8:30 this morning. I got a nice morning message from my honey and I checked his blog, which has been my daily routine, and I saw his great pictures which made me so happy. Then I put on some nice music (which has been a mix of Jamie fox slow jam songs), brushed my teeth, washed my face, and prepared for my day. I put on a nice white colored shirt under my red sweater and nice pants, and I was good to go.

I left my dorm at around 9:00am and went straight to the library to print out a rough draft of my paper for English class. Yup I did it even though it turned out that my teacher didn't look at it or doing anything with it in class, so it was quite pointless. But yeah..anywho..after that I studied more for my midterm and ate a bowl of cereal at the cafe. The bowl of cereal was not that good by the way but I wolfed it down cause it was the only thing I came near to feel like eating.

After eating and studying I walked over to my moms office to say hi and share Mumu's awesome new pics of him in Ghana that are up. She loved them. We talked for a bit and I then realized that I was soooo tired. Probably cause I had not gone to sleep until like 2 this morning..so yeah. Even though I hadn't planned on it, I had to come back to my place and take a 20 minute nap before my second class of the day. I'm the type of person that usually does not do good with short naps despite reports that say - 15 minute naps throughout the day helps you live longer. I generally sleep very very deeply in those 15 mins and wake up with the worst headaches. But yeah..this nap was good :). I felt refreshed and energetic.

We had a good dicussion in class today on Slavary and its effects on contemporary politics. Although I didn't learn anything new cause I have been reading sooo much on this topic and issues surronding it, I got to demonstrate all that I new through class participation. It really affirmed what I know and helped me flesh out all the ideas in my head. I think the teacher is sort of impressed with me. At times he asks me to teach the class more about a particular topic we are discussing. Although I originally considered this putting me on the spot.....I think its pretty cool now.

After class, I went to work. I got to work a bit early but I got to talk more to my boss. She showed me the cutest new puppy that she is getting. I was so jealous hehe. The puppy was so adorable. Right now, my boss is looking up African names for the puppy - cause its an African breed...I forget specifically which one. But I think its fasinating how my boss is so intruiged with African dogs. But yeah...its cool cool.

Anywho, at 3:30 I was off of work and I headed out to get my hair braided...here is a pic. It turned out pretty neat I think. What do you think baby?




The girl finished my hair at 5:30, and by that time I was scheduled to meet Sherley at the gym. I worked out with Sherley from 5:40 to 8pm. Then I ran to the staff office to grab the pager - cause I was on duty. I was on duty with Nikki so naturally we sat there and talked together for like hours. We hadn't seen each other in like a month - even though we are on the same staff, so it was nice to catch up with her. After talking and doing rounds, I grabbed dinner, came back to my place and ate. I had veggies with rice and a cookie. ugh..I am soo full, but I'm glad I ate.

Anywho..today was a good day baby. It was busy again. I am just counting down the days till your return. In 15 weeks we will be back together again and preparing for our adventures in Spain. I can harldy wait. I love you. Meantime, please pray for me - pray that I do well on my midterms!!
