Whatever will I do...?

Sometimes I get bored.

Let's face it. I get incredibly bored when everyone is in class and I'm the only one on the hall who doesn't start class till 2 PM on Thursday (which I highly recommend).

Do your homework when you're bored. Just do it. Especially if it's English. Why should you do English when you're bored? Great question.

If you're researching, and you're having the doldrums, there is no better way to cure those doldrums than to dive into and surround yourself with lots of information. Clearly, your mind isn't occupied by anything else, so it will just work out.

One more thing, if it's night time and you get bored, go see some live music, because it's playing like every single night. Here's some right now.

Work that gym

The freshman 15. Well, I denied it at first, but...

It's about as real as those Snickers rappers in my trash can.

The SRC is this large and intimidating looking recreational building on Rivers Street. It has a rock wall, a track, and probably everything else you ever need to get your heart rate up and your muscles contracting.

Sadly, I have never been to the SRC. I have lived here since August, and I don't think I'll ever go to the SRC, because it is about a 15 minute walk from the east side of campus, and I live on the east side (I gotta represent). I don't like heights, so I won't be climbing any 50 foot walls any time soon.

So you might be thinking, how in the world is this girl going to get any kind of exercise if she doesn't want to walk to the gym?

I found the student union!

Okay, everyone knows about the student union. Every college has a student union. Well get this - there's a gym on the third floor of our student union. It's a five minute walk from where I live.

I went every day this week. That's about two pounds lost. So take that you fifteen pounds!
