Another "Back To Blonde" Post

Haircut today... no need to tell you how ridicously I over paid for it... but for two hours in a spa like setting, it's almost worth it! So, just as I wanted, I'm back to being a blonde. The color isn't as strong as last time (Thankfully!) and the cut is on the short side (which was needed because I am a cruel to my hair). I'll post a picture when I get back to school cuz I didn't bring home my webcam.

Freedom and Boredom Walk Hand in Hand

HEY!! It's officially reading week! YAH!! I'm still up here in snowy Ottawa, but I'll be home soon! Just like last year I thought it would be a great plan to stay up here for a bit before returning home so that I can get as much stuff done as possible (thus not having to bring tons of books home with me) but once again I find myself with few assignments I feel like starting. I just handed in this week a whole ton of stuff, and the week after reading week is serious midterm time... but it's too early to study now... lol.
Big NEWS! Today is the first day I EVER changed a light bulb ALL BY MY SELF!! That's RIGHT! I even went to the store myself to buy the replacements! Okay, I know I'm like 20 and something like this should have happened years ago... but spoiled little me just did it now. PLUS I didn't even hurt myself (no electrical shock or anything!) Impressive, eh?!

Baking Carrot Muffins

Yummy! I'm in the middle of baking carrot muffins right now... and smells really good in the apartment now. :) I actually have nothing to do today, well, not "nothing" but there isn't anything pressing enough that I feel like doing. I worked really hard yesterday to get all my essays out of the way for fun on Saturday night. he he. Last night I ended up going out with Heather, her boyfriend Alex, and Craig to play pool, air hockey, and fooze ball. Then we went to a local pub to get food and drinks. We didn't know that it was karaoke night there, but that ended up being lots of fun. I've never heard hard metal renditions of "eensy weensy spider" nor "B-I-N-G-O"... they were hilarious! lol. It's not how we planned the evening to go, but it was still fun.
I sunk TWO balls in pool last night! Craig, Heather and I teamed up against Alex for two games... he beat us the first time, but we developped strategy by the second round and took home the victory!! yah! lol. Craig kicked my ass in air hockey, and Heather kicked my ass in some video game, but I still had fun. lol.
Hope this last week of school goes well! :)

Last Chance Look

Today I officially started my "get back to blonde" campaign. lol. I'm planning to get some highlights when I go back home for reading week, but I have restarted my use of blonde shampoos today. So basically what you see now is natural, and the blonde is on it's way back!

I wish I could say that I'm loving this weather, but really it's just making everything slushy and gross! Sadly all the ice sculptures up here in Ottawa are melting too... let's hope they can do something to fix that! Worse though, is that it's suppose to be getting colder! icks! I don't want any more snow! Early spring made a very brief appearance, but seems to be going back into hiding when you look at the forecast.

Stressville!

Although I could theoretically could have gotten more homework done on Saturday, by Sunday afternoon I felt like I shouldn't continue any further in case I learn something important this week in class that will help me with my many essays. I got a good start on my biggest essay of this bunch due next week, but I didn't know how to format it, so I decided to stop before I did something wrong, but it's at least 1/3 done. I have two other ones due around at the same time, neither of which I could have started yet... which frustrates me cuz I wanted to get all of them done this weekend. This week is going to be really bad. Plus this coming weekend Maggie is coming up and I'm going to want to hang out with her... but I'm really going to be screwed that weekend... having to write two essays by Monday and one for Tuesday is horrible. But hey, I can't say that I didn't try to get them done... for one of them I don't even have the topic yet!

HAPPY GROUNDHOG DAY!!

I woke up at 7:30am to see the groundhog report, but after an hour and a half of news all I got was that Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter. I was pretty bummed out, lol. Then finally some time before lunch I discovered that Wiarton Willie, along with most of the other groundhogs predicted an early spring. I was very happy. Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy groundhog day! You are soo sweet!!
Then Craig invited me out for "groundhog" tails (aka beaver tails)... followed by a walk downtown into some of the cute stores. Then he convinces me to go to the lululemon warehouse sale. I wanted to go since Thursday, but I knew I was too weak not to spend money there and thought it was best to stay away. Well, I went... and only got one thing! But I saved like 50%! yah! So all in all it was a pretty good groundhog day... especially since we are going to have an EARLY SPRING!! :) :)
