Just like summertime, it's California dreamin'

This week is spring break for me, which constitutes as either a time for relaxation or a time to get caught up in schoolwork. It's both, and not necessarily in that order. I have a paper to write for one class an essay paper I really don't want to do, and I have a midterm exam to study for another. I'm also doing the annual "spring cleaning", mostly tossing out clothes and other junk that I don't need anymore. Oddly enough I'm finding things that I didn't even know I possessed, and sometimes I wonder why I buy certain things in the first place. I'm also working out and exercising to keep my muscles stretched for dance, which is a given but also a necessity. At least I'm getting some things accomplished during my break (I refuse to call it vacation, because to me a vacation means getting out somewhere to have fun, a week of studying and cleaning doesn't qualify that as such).

I now have the sudden urge to go shopping. I probably should, I need some new cute shoes.

Heh, its fun cleaning out all your possessions, makes you feel like you're making a fresh start! breaks where you have to study all the time aren't great :( hope you get the paper-you-dont-wanna-do done!

I really like cleaning, which surprises a lot of people. It's a sense of fulfillment that you accomplished something by making your space look all pretty and neat. Right now I'm partially finished, but it looks so refreshed where things used to be cluttered and messy!

The essay is kicking my ass, and it's for the class I'm really struggling in right now. It sucks where I'm stressing when I should be relaxing, I don't want to do it but I have to.

YES! Exactly. :)
