I am sitting at my computer and constantly trying to find something else that I could be working on. I finished a calendar on shutterfly for my parents and emailed back everyone that I was supposed to. I'm attempting to work on a presentation of the biomechanics of the wrist- exciting I know. In all seriousness though, it is pretty neat except not exactly something I thought I would be doing on a Friday night. That's right- I am staying in on a Friday night and no I am not sick. I'm not really sure if I am getting older and more mature or just plain old lazy, but the last thing I wanted to do tonight was go to a smoky bar and scream to my friends just to be heard while getting beer spilled on me by the drunk skinheads that can't seem to stand up straight. So yes, I am staying in and working on biomechanics and yes, I have checked facebook every 7 minutes on average just to be sure I didn't miss something unbelievable while trying to figure out this whole wrist thing.
Also, I realized that I can't do much studying or homework in the comfort of my wonderful room. Why, you ask? Well because I'm like a vacuum cleaner. By that, I do not mean that I have been cleaning like crazy. I mean yes I did the dishes from the past couple of days, but I mean I'm pretty sure I cleaned out everything edible in my kitchen: peanuts, cereal, yogurt, took a bite of a chocolate bar (turns out it was way too old to eat so there went that) and some lactose-free cream cheese (yes with no bread...please don't judge).
And as I eat and facebook and blog and talk to Katie on gchat, I am also searching frantically for train/bus/plane tickets to go to Budapest. I'm sure some people are saying, "What is wrong with her? Budapest? Hungary? Turkey? What?" Mmmm turkey...sweet potatoes, pieeeeeee! Sorry, must focus. Budapest. I bought yet another groupon for a trip to Budapest. I swear to you, in the next few years people will no longer be attending AA meetings, but GOA meetings- groupon annonymous. "Hi, my name is Ola and I am a Groupon addict." But in all seriousness, as my bank teller lady explained to me, groupon is a way for people to buy things they don't necessarily need. I completely agree with her, but honestly, this trip to Budapest I really did need. So it's a 3 day, 2 night trip with food for two people that has to be used by the end of March. And you're wondering who I'm going with and to make a long story short, remember that guy I met at the wedding way back when? Well, him. Yea I know it's kinda crazy that I am going on a trip somewhere in Europe with a boy, but I think we'll be good at traveling together. We shall see at least! Anyways, we are in the process of trying to figure out when exactly we are going to go. Cross that, he needs to figure out when he can go because I already know all my vacation times for the rest of the year and it's looking pretty good I must say. I think I'll be able to get a few more trips in the next few months! So excited...well not excited for my bank account, but at least I'll learn new wise ideas from my bank teller. Gotta look at the positive side of things, right?
On a different note, I went to Pulawy last weekend for Zosia's birthday and it was tons of fun. The children are growing and I'm loving it. They're no longer scared of me and I can throw them around and give them piggy back rides. I feel like my singing and dancing also improved after hanging out with them as well. We can ask the kids what they thought later. All-in-all it was a quick trip, but very family oriented which is something I definitely needed. I will probably go back sooner than later because my friend Ania wants to see Pulawy and eat a fine meal. Plans for February in terms of traveling will be announced shortly...or spontaneously- whatever comes first! One thing I know for sure is that I literally have five exams and one presentation that I have to get through in the first two weeks before I start thinking about fun activities.
Alright friends, time for me to finish this presentation and I am definitely due for a facebook check. You just never know what happened in the seven minutes I last checked! Peace and Love!
