Just one of those days...

Yesterday was just one of those days...

Like a friend put it at dinner, "Half the school was sick from rave poisoning and blackouts and the other half sick from a widespread cold."

Friday night, no one slept. I stayed in and tried to get some work done because the upcoming week holds a paper, a midterm, my first lab, and a other stressful school work. I procrastinated week one. It's a new place! But even though I did not go to bed till very very late...I woke up early to get something done.

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

It was a rather dreary morning..our first drizzle of rain at Duke...rather cloudy.

Really pretty actually, but just...lazy weather. I woke up and ate way too much...felt sick...went to round two of DefMo auditions...auditioned, interviewed, came back to my room to try to Skype with my sister. No luck. By then it was four-thirty.

Still couldn't do work.

I tried to go to the gym..just going up the stairs someone told me it seemed like my legs were tired. I went to the gym and came right back. I guess the walk there and back counted right?

I went to dinner, wasn't really hungry though. One because I ate too much brunch. Two, because I hadn't really moved much all day.

At dinner my friend reminded me it was September 11; she's from New York and wondered how it didn't even seem to affect people here...I told her how it's kind of sad that elementary schools do more for 9/11 than anyone else.

I came back to my room...to do work, of course. But I went to sleep.

That may have been just what I needed because I slept for almost ten hours.

I read a chapter this morning. It's a start. I guess I just needed a break.
