Priceless

Haha... from a friend's survey that I read...

"Do you do your own laundry?: No, the magical laundry fairy does it; at least thats what [her husband] seems to think."

Doesn't the magical laundry fairy do all laundry?

Confessional: I have never done my own laundry. And I'm 21. And yeah, I realize that that is a little sad. I have put a lot of thought into this though, and I think I can get away with never having to do laundry. See, say I hypothetically marry Matt. Matt has been doing his own laundry for a very long time, and seems to be pretty good at it. I, on the other hand, have been cooking and baking for a very long time. Matt loves (or so he says) my kitchenal creations, so that seems like a fair trade-off, does it not? My goal is to go a vast majority of my life without doing laundry, if not all. I don't really mind doing dishes either. I'm sure we can crack a deal. :)

Matt and I had a very good Valentine's day. We went to the Keg (delicious) and exchanged our gifts. I got Across the Universe from Matt, and some flowers which he surprised me with! He really liked his book too, so a successful holiday, I'd say.

Finally, I really wanted to link a video, but I couldn't find it. Have you seen the new mastercard commercial? "Giving your kitchen the night off: priceless". It is so cute! All the kitchen equipment are partying because the couple went out for dinner. My favorite part was when the knives were watching the horror movie and huddled together because they were scared. Love it, love it, L O V E I T!!!!

Just to dress up this entry a little bit, check out another one of my favorite videos. Always makes me laugh!!

The Perfect Man

"He's sweet and decadently rich! Just how a man ought to be!"

Matt's mom gave me a chocolate man for V day, complete with heart covered boxers. It was very cute, and my favorite part was after I got it and Matt pretended to be insulted. Something about him being the perfect man or something...?

Haha. I was going to take a picture of him, as he is very cute (the chocolate man, not Matt, lol) but I didn't think of that until I bit off his head. Taking a picture and posting it now seems a tad sadistic.

He is delicious, by the way.

Happy Valentine's Day, a few days early!

U OF C

"At Princeton if you are diagnosed as manic depressive, they give you a year off. They don't give you this time because they are worried about you though. They don't want you to fail your classes and therefore pull down the class average and jeopardize their ranking as one of the top two or three universities in the States.

I find this just... sick... nasty.

At the U of C, they don't do that. If you are diagnosed as being manic depressive at the U of C, well... just... join the rest of us!"

I am the biggest...

procrastinator EVER!

I cannot believe the amount of time I spent procrastinating yesterday. I had a paper to write, some readings to do, and a lab write up and it took me way longer than it should have. Never mind that I didn't even finish the paper. I'm having a hard time with this paper; I've never had to write one that requires thinking before! Usually it is just regurgitating other people's thoughts, so this is a new concept.

Anyway, when I think of the time I wasted yesterday "working" (i.e. checking blogs, going on facebook, re checking blogs, checking email, and re checking blogs), I am just disapppointed. To think, I could have done my work in a few short hours and then done what ever I wanted for the evening but instead I was stuck at the computer all afternoon and all evening, accomplishing very little. I think this has to stop. Maybe that means checking facebook once a day, blogs once a day, email once a day MAXIMUM, but I have to set some limits. I want more time to do stuff I enjoy, and I think I could have that and get my work done too!

There you have my new leaf. I'll keep you posted.

Goodbye, January!

And hello February, I suppose.

One term paper down, major presentation down, commercial down! I am happy about that, let me tell you.

Matt got a free DVD with the pizza he ordered last night while I was still at my house. When I called to tell him I was on my way up, he told me that he got a movie for me. I was excited too, because it was a movie that I like and would like to watch again, but didn't really want to buy... The Devil Wears Prada. :)

Little moments like those that let me know that I am on his mind are my favorite.
