Things I Really Shouldn’t Think About, But I Do

Oh man, today was absolutely nauseating. I just had two finals, both of which required some mad studying. So I tried to stay up and study as much as possible. Sometime around 3 or 4 am, I just could not stay up so I went to bed and set my alarm for an hour later. Always, always, a bad mistake. An hour later, I woke up, turned off my alarm, didn’t reset it, and went back to bed. I, somehow, woke up five minutes before my exam. I called the taxi and basically ran out the dorm with my notes in hand. Even though I tiptoed into class fifteen minutes late, there was plenty of time to take it, and everything turned out fine.

Then I went to the bathroom and took a look in the mirror. I seriously looked fugly, like a woman who has three small children and turned her wardrobe into a monotonous slew of colored v-neck tees and light wash jeans. I just grabbed the first clean shirt and first clean pants from my drawers and put them on. I did not think, I did not put anything over it to add any pizzazz. It just looked so plain and slobbish. So why did I have these two items in the first place? Well they do go well with other stuff, just not together. I was embarrassed to be walking around looking twenty years older, which is just as bad as forty-somethings dressed up like Paris Hilton. Why, oh, why did I not grab a jersey dress instead!?

Instead of lamenting about how horrendous I looked, I should be thanking my lucky stars that I made it to my final in time. But it was just looked so bad! Just goes to show you where my priorities are.
