Sleep Deprived

Ok we all know I never slept when I lived at home, but oh my gosh let me just tell you that I have not slept for more than 3 hours a night since I've moved to college. On weekdays, I average about 2 hours and weekends, maybe 3. But that's it. And it's not like I'm up doing things (well sometimes I am....) but mostly I'm just laying in bed staring at the ceiling completely wiped out but unable to put myself to rest. This is NOT how I planned to start my year, but I guess it's the hand I've been dealt. No royal flush here...

I have been very active in CRU (campus crusades for Christ). I went to the weekly CRU meeting last night and Denny's afterword, and hung out with this really cool boy I met, Grant, for a while before I headed back to my room. I go to the weekly Bible studies, led by CRU, and am planning on going to the fall weekend in October. I really like this group of people, and I've made a few friends through it. Ashley, one of the CRU interns, is pretty cool. We met up yesterday and talked for a while. Good times. And I'm going to church with Ashley on Sunday, cuz I didn't really like the church I went to last week, so I'm gunna try another one.

I'm really missing the Library. I miss the people and the books and the work and the sounds and the patrons...annoying and not...I miss shelving and shelf reading and talking and sorting and just everything. I really did LOVE my job, and even more sure now that it's what I want to do with my life. I didn't realize how incredebly passionate and in love with the library I was until I couldn't spend all of my extra time there. Yes, I am 100% sure I want to be a librarian :-)

I got a new phone on Wednesday. My other one kept turning off everytime I closed it, so an upgrade was greatly needed. I got a maroon ENV 2, one I've wanted since I saw it. And I love it just like I thought I would.

I've been running several times a week at the Rec/IM. It's helped release some tension, but has made me even more tired cuz of the whole no sleep thing. I've also become a clean freak! Something I didn't really expect. I make my bed everyday, clean the bathroom every week, sweep the floor, put everything away when I'm done with it, I just like it clean. I know this may sound like normal things for most people, but if you know me, you know that for my whole life, I've lived in a very messy home and was never made to clean anything up. So wanting everything to be clean all the time is so new for me. But I kinda like it...

Ok, well I've got homework to do. Later people...
