A Little Rest and Relaxation

Yesterday, after I slept a little late and spent half the day grocery
shopping, I sat down to finish all my french homework. All the
assignments, all the computer-based tests, and all the labs. I finished
up about 2 in the morning and I seriously felt like a huge weight had
been lifted off my shoulders. I was so excited and hyper that I cleaned
my apartment. Right then.

So today, even though I have yet to get started on my art project for
the week, I thought I deserved a little rest and relaxation, so I
decided to go to the pool (which is where I am now). It's 74 degrees
here and not a cloud in the sky, so the pool is swamped and there are
even kids swimming. I forgot how incredibly boring the whole laying out
in the sun is. I tried to bring magazines, but I don't want to wear
sunglasses, so it's too hard to read. So instead of reading, I'm
killing my eyes by typing in this entry into my tiny sidekick.

The only thing keeping me here is the fact that I am the whitest white
girl on the planet and am desperately in need of color. The children in
the pool with their absolutely incessant wave-making and splashing is
annoying me. The college-aged girls with their 6 pack abs drinking beer
are annoying me (who knew there were this many skinny girls left in the
world?). The lack of clouds is even annoying me because I am hot as
hell and yet, I can't bring myself to get into the pool/wave machine.

So much for the relaxation part. The rest part seems to be checking out
though, so at least that's something.
