The Past Week

... In which it snowed. And I got to shovel the driveway twice in the span of 24 hours. Sorry, I forgot to take pictures of the snow. But it was powdery snow that blew this way and that due to the strong gusts. It was the kind of snow that blows off the tops of snowy cars onto the frozen pavement and dances in a wispy, slightly eerie way before dissipating in the breeze.

... In which it has been cold. Like I'm saying it's cold cold. Still haven't busted out my real winter jacket yet, but for reference purposes, today it went up to a high of 18 degrees Fahrenheit. And it was windy enough that the excess salt for melting snow and ice on the roads was blowing into my face today. How do I know? Well, let's just say the wind tasted salty. Yuck.

... In which I began my essay writing in earnest. It just needs to get done. I have fewer excuses with each passing day. Not to mention less time to get it written and rewritten and rewritten and...

... In which I realized that my Spanish has really gotten much better over the past few months because I'm using it on a regular basis. I'm slowly but surely regaining confidence in my ability to speak it. And verb conjugations? Online guides/ Spanish grammar review are the best. Kind of.

... In which my friend and I made plans to hang out. Plans that involve actual traveling and hanging out in person rather than just virtually over the internet. Plans that involve food, laughing, and chilling. Fully detailed, overly-packed schedules have yet to be developed. However, if our college habits are indicative in the least of how things will unfold, we will make way too many plans, then stick to the best one of just chilling and let the other plans fall to the wayside. More details to follow.
