Dear World

I love Thursdays. Today was a comfy flannel shirt and hair-in-a-braid sort of day. It's basically the start of the weekend, since I only have work tomorrow, and no class. yay!

Some of the random things I've thought today:

• why does 3:00 sound like afternoon but 4:00 like the beginning of the evening?

• don't call your TA: "Sister Cooper" in an email. Just don't do it.

• Anthropology is awesome.

• I'm really glad that all the people working on their research are just as lost as I am.

• the French lab girl today was actually from France, and so nice that I didn't feel dumb for all of my grammar errors (and there are always A LOT)

• i love unexpected friends who make you feel good. tender mercies. 

• i love talking to my dad

• i miss oregon air and the rain

• crepe parties are the best

• especially when they are accidentally scheduled for Valentines day. hehe. 

• so is a dinner with your sis and her roommate, where you end up talking for two hours

• confidence means knowing how great you are, but not bragging about it

• it's ok to to dream big. encouraged even. this is one of my new goals.

• why is your bed so much more comfortable in the morning?

• I really need to sleep more

Also, I just remembered--my mom comes to visit a week from today!!! I'm soooo excited.
