"I want adventure in the great wide somewhere!"



Rainy day…which means a rather boring day here.  I was productive this morning though.  Paid my rent, turned in my application for a student ID, and looked at more courses to take…of course, I didn't find any courses to take, but that's beside the point =)  I don't want to take any on Thursday or Friday, which really limits my options haha.  But I will find something!  And if I do have to take Thursday courses…well I might be getting sick a couple of times this semester…for example, I feel a stomach virus coming on in a month that will prevent me from going to school…coincidentally it will hit me on the same day that I'm leaving for Italy.  Funny how I can sense that working out =)

I ate at the university restaurant again, mostly because I didn't want to walk to the grocery store in the rain.  I had a delicious tomato and mozzarella pizza and a banana pudding tart for dessert!  I ate a salad too, however I wasn't yet brave enough to take the salad that had pâté mixed in it.  Maybe another day when I'm feeling daring and adventurous =)

That being said, I didn't really eat dinner haha.  Devouring an entire pizza for lunch definitely filled me up.  I felt quite virtuous and healthy after my enormous lunch by eating simply an orange and banana for dinner.  Despite not being super hungry, I did go to the grocery store with my friend on a scavenger hunt for candles and matches!  After all, I did say I want adventure =)  She got back to her apartment after lunch and found out that her electricity stopped working.  A trip to the electric company confirmed that she may not have power for the entire weekend.  And it's only Thursday.  So we went on a late-night adventure and she bought lots of candles and a large bottle of wine =)  What more (besides electricity) could she need?? 

So after the randomness of a boring day becoming adventurous, and after I Swifered the floor in case it becomes my friend's bed for the next night or two since she has no heat in her electricity-free studio, I decided the best way to end this night was to take an early shower and curl up in bed with some chocolate mousse (so much for the virtuous and healthy feeling haha), wine, and one of my favorite movies: How to Train Your Dragon =)  Happy day!
