I wish that life had a pause button.
I wish I could push it.
I wish I was a little bit slimmer.
I wish I could eat whatever I want.
I wish I liked to work.
I wish it all came easily.
I wish I had a little more money.
I wish I didn't need money.
I wish it always felt like home.
I wish there were no bad smells.
I wish I was completely educated.
I wish I could absorb information like a sponge.
I wish gas was cheap.
I wish for world peace.
I wish wishes weren't corny.
I wish I weren't so gullible.
I wish Diet Coke was free.
I wish that everyone was in love like I am.
I wish I always had clean laundry.
I wish I didn't have to leave for Chemistry right now.

Today, I kicked my chemistry test's

incredibly difficult ass.

I also gave one of the best speeches I've done to date. All of this was completed before 9 a.m., and I am left with a sense of accomplishment and drive. I love getting things done to the best of my ability.

I hope you all are well. Smiles and love and FUZZY feelings.

Vindictive

Hello.

Happy 1st Day of Fall, my dear darling companions. If you're wondering, my title is the word of the day. It means "seeking revenge." You know, it would be neat to major in Vocabulary. I would. And you know I'm not lying.

Please write me a letter:

Katie Rose Fritz
365 Brown, Box #2801
SDSU
Brookings, SD 57007-1996

Louisa and I are having a lovely time at home. It is a cool, crisp, breezy evening. The crickets are chirping, which I admit is a little monotonous, but it lends consistency to everything. Geoffrey, unfortunately, is at rehearsal for his musical. (Quick sidenote: I have always been bad at keeping presents a secret.) I made him a mixtape and cannot wait to give it to him. And then I found twenty dollars. Again, I note that I need to learn how to tell a good story.

*adds to the to-do list*

It used to smell like meat in our dorm room. That is, before we changed our garbage. Surprisingly, Wee and I have been pretty good about keeping clean. I told my dad the other day, "I never was a neat freak. Then I moved to college. Now I am." Henceforth, the garbage is empty, the dishes are clean, and our room smells of calming lavendar again.

FAST FACTS:

  • Walmart is the only place to shop in Brookings.

  • I have rockin' cool JBL Creature speakers.

  • I want to take a shower so my hair smells spicy.

    Yeah, so that's about as far as my English skills will take me this evening. I'll catch you on the flip side.

    peacefulnights

    I participated in the most wondrous event today.  I took a nap with my love.  It was delightful.  There is nothing in the world more peaceful.

    Paid like a mad cake

    Hello.

    I was planning to begin this post with a great idea I had in the shower. Now I forget what it was. So instead, I begin this post with a good story. (Again, do I have to mention the sarcasm?) I found twenty dollars. There, now we've got a good story.

    I just finished my chemistry pre-lab, and to my pleasant surprise, it was not too difficult. You see, I have never liked chemistry. Now you may say, "But Katie! You are a pharmacy major! You have to love chemistry! You have to dream of it, night and day! You have to eat it, drink it, and live it!" To that, I will say, "My friend, you are crazy. Please step back 10 feet." Seriously though, I really don't like it. I am learning to like it, however, because it pays like mad cakes later on in life. I would love to be paid like a mad cake, wouldn't you?

    *changes the title of this post*

    Well, continuing on with the topic, I have chemistry lab tonight. Ugh, it lasts from 7-9:50 p.m. Now, I hope that is a vivid enough example for you to realize why Mondays are hell for me. On top of today being Monday, I woke up with horrible allergies because I forgot to take my Allegra last night. I never had an allergy in my life before I came to this mighty metropolis. Now I am paying the price, I suppose. I want a refund.

    *pouts*

    Louisa and I are moving in together before the end of the week. (That sentence should be written in CAPS LOCK to relay my utter bliss, but frankly, I find CAPS LOCK utterly annoying.) So anyhoo, I am moving out of my current dorm which houses my current roommate who drinks and parties and has friends over so late that I can't even get my pajamas on in peace. Yes, it is time for a change. It is for the better. Hell, Wee and I already bought groceries together. I forsee a bright year ahead.

    I need a coffee from Java City. Unfortunately for you, that means the end of this post. I love you all trulymadlydeeply and...yeah. Keep it real, as opposed to fake.

    *waves*

    makesmethinkof y o u

    “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” by the Beatles makes me think of my boyfriend.

    “Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)” by Pink Floyd makes me think of my best friend.

    I love how songs hold so many memories.  Especially when those songs are obtained for a greatly reduced rate (ie: free) using MyTunes.  But that is quite the other story.

    *looks around*

    It is 2:17 a.m., and I think I may be addicted to blogging once again.  Refreshing and liberating, writing is a release for me.  I had forgotten it.  Ugh, I can’t believe I will be up and working in 6 hours.  That is a horrific and horrendous fact that no one should have to face.  Unfortunately, tonight, I am no one.  “Fug that”, as Aaron and I would say.

    Well, to summarize my blogging return, I will end this morning with a quote from my new favorite Epic Hero song:

    “Hello, hello, it’s good to be back again…”

    “Hello Hello” by Epic Hero makes me think of you.

    Addendum

    Hello once again, from the mighty metropolis of Brookings, South Dakota!

    (Okay, maybe not so mighty. They're working on the metropolis part.)

    Either way, hello again. I'm Katie, if you don't recall. To tell the truth, I'll be surprised if anyone checks this old chap anymore. I'm willing to take that risk.

    As everyone knows, college has begun. I am loving the experience. Independence, responsibility, and carefreeness (?) are as refreshing as I hoped they'd be. Classes aren't too terribly difficult yet, but since I picked the easy major (pharmacy), I am fairly confident they'll stay that way.

    (As a side note, sarcasm is just one of the many services offered here at The Daily Muffin.)

    Right now, I am in my pajamas, lounging about the dorm room. I recently attempted to toast some Pop Tarts in my roommate's old, decrepit toaster. Consequently, I write to you in a room that smells faintly of burned Pop Tarts. Even more annoying is that everyone who walks by my open door comments on it. Ahhh, the benefits of living with 35-40 other girls. Despite some of the downfalls, I really do love being in this community. Everyone is so friendly and has a willingness to meet someone new. I love that.

    Well, now, I must be off to the shower to get ready for the day. (Note: the time is 4:06 p.m.) I have coaxed Geoffrey into coming to Lewis with me. All this excitement, gosh, I just can't take it.

    Oh, by the way, we are dating again. I couldn't be happier or more in love.

    Okay, now I'm out.
