It was freaking BEAUTIFUL out today. So beautiful, in fact, that I had an episode. A hypomanic episode to be exact. You see, as a victim of hypomania, my mood is severely influenced by beautiful weather. My hypomanic episode consists of euphoria, a flood of ideas, attention deficiency, and inflated self-esteem. This would all be fine, aside from the fact that my biology midterm was this afternoon. In my euphoric state, I felt no need to study, and my inflated self-esteem assured me that I was good to go. Instead of spending the morning studying as I had intended to, I went out to lunch with sweet baby Kerry and fulfilled the Willy's craving that came over me last night. And dios mios was it delicious!! I got a burrito in a bowl. Best thing EVERRR! It's like all the goodness of nacho toppings slash burrito innards with delicious chips on the side. SO your chips don't get soggy like they would with nachos and you can evenly distribute deliciousness on each chip which you cannot do with burrito bites. But I digress.
So I got to my bio midterm all happy go lucky, aware of my scanty knowledge of the material and yet not at all worried. I sat down with my scantron and felt no nerves whatsoever, then a test was passed to me and I began. I remember sitting there bubbling in my scantron without a care in the world--guessing every so often without the slightest clue as to whether or not my response was even an educated guess. I finished up and didn't bother looking over my answers, sure that I'd done well enough. I turned in my test with a big dopey smile spread across my face and just about skipped out of the lecture hall. I damn near skipped my last class so I could soak up the sun and people watch on north campus, but somehow I made my way to Caldwell and sat through an hour of nonsensical discussion about Dreaming in Cuban. At least in my head it was nonsensical--I had about a million different thoughts racing through my head at once. I pulled up like 5 different windows on Safari, while texting 3 different people and keeping up with our small group discussion of the novel.
My euphoria and ego boost and ADD have continued on in that way all day. Now that the sun is setting I think I might be calming down, but then again Wikipedia says these episodes last 4 days. And I don't care what anyone says--Wikipedia never lies.
This weekend Smel and I are driving up to Charleston to meet up with Holly Berry and go to Carolina Cup! I cannot wait!!! It's the light at the end of the tunnel that is this week. Tomorrow morning at 8 am I will be taking a Spanish exam with sweet Fuad, then Thursday a Linguistics test with my freak professor woman, and Friday we have a French paper due. Vom. I'm so over this semester. Except for my life will be void of meaning without seeing Fuad every Tuesday and Thursday at 8 am. I don't want to talk about it.
GREAT NEWS! 11 months and 3 days until I turn 21.
Our back porch furniture is currently housing every wasp and giant mutant bee in Athens. We have just about gone through 18 ounces of Raid trying to discourage the new hang out spot. Struggles. Today in battle Steen threw our entire screen door on top of one of the mutant bees. Valiant Ali opened up the table umbrella for easier access to their humble abode. We are the masters of our domain. TAKE THAT SUCKAAAS
As sweet Kerry so perceptively pointed out, yesterday's urbandictionary Word of the Day epitomizes me. Bitchassness: a term coined by Diddy on Making the Band. Overall stank actions towards others through words, facial expressions, and/or song. Symptoms include: thinking you're better than those around you, not speaking your true feelings, throwing large amounts of shade.
In my bio class we were talking about a gene mutation that makes your pee turn purple or black with oxidation. Even if you have it, you would never know because we never pee in a cup and let it sit out til it turns colors. Meems and I have decided to take on this feat for the benefit of the world and for our own personal knowledge. I will let you know the results when we find them. However, I just stumbled upon a website that instructs you on how to induce peeing colors of the rainbow. Read up! But please don't try any of them because most of them are medical conditions...
Okay it's time for my Skype date with Tommy.
peace love and tipper love
