"Where's Andre?!"

Tuesday was the most exhausting day of my life. This whole getting up at 6:30am thing bites. I got up and felt nauseous from lack of sleep, had to sit at attention for three hours in my class, find something to do while awake for six hours, until class at 6pm. All I wanted to do was curl up in a ball and sleep, but instead I spent a couple hours researching for a project in the annex, found some food at the corner cafe, and then spent the rest of the time drafting my project. What a day!

While at the corner cafe, called Fusion, I saw Andre from Project Runway! He's sort of interesting, the way he moves his body and walks and talks. All around he's a character. So I saw him, texted my friend David who also loves project runway, and then noticed the badge he had on his pocket. He is a professor at FIDM. He was on the same season as Santino, Santino would impersonate Tim Gun all the time and sometimes said "where's andre?" I thought it was funny.

Today I slept in finally and then made my way out to Santa Monica and picked up my shoes from shoe repair. I also swung by a dozen or so stores, just dipping in and out, seeing if there was anything to catch my eye. The thing I HATE down here is that in every store they are advertising their winterwear. Fluffy, down vests, wool sweaters, boots, thermal shirts, scarfs... it's 90 degrees outside, are people actually buying it? While walking I felt like I was in a sauna, I wanted to drink water, and more water, and more water, yet it was never enough. My throat was dry, I was sweating and totally uncomfortable. All I wanted was to be home at that very moment.

Unfortunately home isn't that much cooler. I turned on the fan and sat in front of it for a while. Finally I got to my homework and realized there was more to do than I realized or had time for. So now, I'm quickly writing this blog so that I can get back to my work and study a bit in bed before i fall fast asleep. I'm so terrible at group projects, I always take on the mass amount of work that nobody was expecting, and just do it, without complaint. But this group project is continuing, and there's no way I'm letting it slide this time! I'm laying down the expectations!

Tonight I had dinner at Doughboys because so far it's the only good sit down restaurant closeby that I know of. haha. My friend Melinda and I went, and sat outside, very exposed to the street. It was weird, but kind of cool. Since it has been so warm out, it was a pretty decent choice to sit outside. I need to buy some shorts, and tank tops.

Okay, my eyes are starting to sting because I'm sleepy and occassionally the fan blows in my eyes. Goodnight!
