Bellissimo

There’s nothing better than a good eggplant parmesan (Catie, you were right!). And while my eggplant parmesan wasn’t exactly tradition, it sure was tasty…especially considering it was cooked in a microwave. And it was super easy to make with very few ingredients: just an eggplant, marinara sauce, ricotta cheese, and 2 tbsp. of wheat germ [...]

No. More. Chemistry.

It’s been a heck of a long day; Mondays always are because I have 3 classes plus an extra review session for chemistry (which I try to go to every week, even when I don’t feel like it simply because chemistry is not my best subject…it doesn’t hurt that I have a good looking chem [...]

Insomniac oatmeal

I got very little sleep last night (as in 3 1/2 hours of unrestful sleep…caused by sleeping in yesterday morning and the tiny amount of caffeine that I thought would sit well since it did the night before). But sometimes sitting in bed with absolutely no hint that sleep will come soon can be a good [...]

Confessions

I confess…I spent the entire day in my pajamas and I was not about to get all dressed up just to go grab some dinner (I’m not one of those students that feels comfortable wandering around campus in my pajamas). So instead of trying to be at least a little creative, I had a melange [...]

Feeling snacky

It’s been quite a snacky afternoon; because I got into the groove of studying I didn’t want to take a big long break for lunch and I ended up having a series of smaller snack-meals instead. I probably should have stopped and taken a break but I knew that if I had gotten out of [...]

Up and at ‘em

I have been extremely lazy this morning; I slept a bit later than I usually do on the weekends and I feel like my entire schedule is thrown off. But I guess that’s what weekends are for…not having to worry about a schedule, that is. I’m just thankful that today is “oatmeal weather” because I [...]

Smells like a turkey dinner

That’s what the girls in my hall said after I had microwave-baked my sweet potato. It’s amazing that something as simple as sweet potato smells can conjure up thoughts of Thanksgiving. I felt like I definitely would have the best dinner on the floor But, sadly, I think I let my sweet potato [...]

Grocery trippin’

There’s only so much homework a girl can handle before she needs to get some fresh air so I took a much needed walk to the grocery store. The best part about the trip? I was $4 under my “goal budget”…compared to my last trip to the store, when I was over budget, this was [...]

Impressionable appetite

As usual, my break from studying consisted of turning on the Food Network and watching an episode of Everyday Italian. On this episode she made a wonderful looking sandwich using a baguette, tuna, artichoke hearts, and black olives. Just watching her put the sandwich together made me salivate. So of course I developed a hankering [...]

Homework is taking over!

As I mentioned yesterday, this is going to be another homework filled weekend. The homeworking has already started…I’ve been working on chemistry since climbing out of bed this morning. Thankfully I find electron configuration somewhat interesting and much more bearable than thermochemistry. But since I have a chem exam on Wednesday I am going to [...]
