My new clean room (No more mildew or turf grass)

Rachel and I decided to clean the room (even though at the end of each day it looks terrible again). We vacuumed for the first time this year... it was getting gross because we could feel stuff when we walked (mostly turf and turf rubber that I had brought back with me from field hockey. Somehow that stuff made it's way into the fridge). Even more disgusting was the shower, which we had never cleaned. So during this cleaning spree at 1 in the morning, Rachel decides to pick up our shower caddies which had been sitting in the shower and IT WAS ALL GREEN underneath them. I would like to say that we cleaned it up, but I mostly stood there and gagged while Rachel cleaned. I ddi run to get a paper towel though. Anyways... after a few loads of laundry and some dishes, our room is now spotless. Or it was for a little while.

How I manage to look cool in college:

So I woke up with a cold today I think, and I completely forgot to bring tissues with me to the Examined Life (just a super exciting philosophy class at 8 that's required...). In the middle of class I decided to get up and squeeze by a whole row of people (there aren't desks, just a big long table thing). So as if that wasn't a big enough ruckus, my granola bar wrapper was EXTRA crinkly. Then I felt a sudden urge to sneeze and I was trying to hold it in (which I did accomplish) but not without emitting a super loud and awkward hiccup/dry-heaving noise. Julie was sitting next to me and she told me that it sounded like I was going to throw up. Of course the class is always so quiet because everyone's still sleeping so NO ONE laughed but it was obvious that everyone heard it. My embarrassment just causes me to collapse in a fit of giggles as my face is getting even more red and Julie as doing the same thing, and as we try to contain our laughter we start shaking since we're trying to be quiet. Then my professor just has to call us out by saying "can I help you girls?" So awkward, but it makes a good story.

I don't have a picture of us in class but this is what we usually look like...

Copying my best friend, Olivia.

Soooo we'll see how this thing goes. I wish I had started this earlier in the year because now I feel like I have so much to post about my exciting college life. Well I guess you have to start somewhere... Once I figure out how to do this I'll try to post some pictures from earlier in the school year. I have half a semester to cover now! At least I've figured out how to make my background purple (only the best color ever...)

I should probably be sleeping now but I feel like mastering this whole blogging thing tonight. Like I said... we'll see.
