Other Light.

This morning I was rudely awoken by the telephone. Now normally I'd ignore the phone ringing and go back to sleep--but this morning, I had my hopes up that it would be someone I'd actually want to talk to. So I rolled over, reached out of bed, picked the phone up off the floor and in a groggy voice answered, "Hello?". There was a moments pause in which I waited anxiously to see who it was--sadly, after the moments pause I found it a solicitor taking a survey on how Canadians feel about same sex marriage. At this point (after hanging up), I found myself giggling in bed for I couldn't help but remember the line from the new Robin Williams movie..."Same sex marriage?! Anybody who has been married a long time knows its the same sex!"

I drug my tired bum out of bed to find my roommates in the kitchen making breakfast--we chatted a bit as I found we were out of bowls for cereal (at this point I did the obvious thing and turned on the dishwasher). I looked around and pulled out a mixing bowl (probably three times of the size of the bowl that I originally wanted) and poured in my Cheerios. I then went to sit at my computer and do the usual--check the email, and the various different sites I have online. Personally, I have found that I have too many of them between myspace, nexopia and facebook. The majority of my friends are on facebook, (I think 70ish or so) so it would make sense to keep that one although I use it the least of all three. Decisions, decisions...

After writing back to messages and emails, I of course check my friends blogs and then my own--alas, here I am. Not too interesting really. My plan for the day? Simple. Study until I find that my head hurts so much that it can't hold another word, read until my eyes start to blur the readings together--basically cram as much as I physically can. I have two exams left and I want to finish well. Apart from studying, I need to go pick up my laptop and somewhere in between I am going to go for a run to burn some steam.

Best of luck to everyone--especially my engineering friends who have yet to even start their midterms! The stress has only yet begun...

One more sleep...
