Life on Mars
Apr. 30th, 2009 07:31 pmThe last few days have been very lazy, idle days. I'd say without the presence of regular intervals of studying, this should be a pretty good preview of what my summer is going to be like. My dad came up on Tuesday after I finished my ecology exam to help me fix my internet connection on my desktop and hang my hammock out on the porch. I spent six hours in it that night, most of it in chat, drinking a light vodka and lemonade and looking out at the night sky.
Right now I'm taking a break from chemistry problems online. It's really beautiful outside. There's a nice breeze flowing across my porch and the sun is starting to set. I dragged my speakers and my ipod out here and put on the Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou soundtrack. The movie isn't my favorite, but the soundtrack is pretty much perfect.
The last few weeks have been really, really nice. I feel relaxed, even though I'm so busy I barely go anywhere any more. I don't resent being in my apartment; I relish it. I looked on the Real Simple website last night for simple exercise routines I can do at home and found a really excellent one for legs and hips. I did that last night and today I find myself fantastically sore. It's a great feeling, and it's fun to complain about and curse.
I have two exams tomorrow. Chemistry from 11 to 1, and Physics from 1 to whenever, apparently. I pray to be easily done with Chemistry so I can book it across campus to the Math and Physics building in time. I'm going to set out my bag and breakfast tonight with my scantrons and my calculator and everything I need to not fail.

kitalita: My legs are so tired. I did that huge workout yesterday and now I feel like I should be dragging myself along the floor like Darth Torso.
kitalita: I no longer lower myself into chairs. I glance behind me and hope I can aim correctly.
