a bit of an update

I never update.
So it's time.
It is 5:53am and I have yet to go to sleep tonight. My schedule has been crazy this week so I figured I would keep it that way tonight.
I have to pull together 3 papers, a presentation and take an exam all by Friday.
Again -- it's Thursday, 5:53am right now... I have yet to go to sleep.
As of recent -- I went tanning with my friend Chris, his 21st birthday is coming up and he wants to be tan for the pic. Legit. Normally I tan outside, in nature, on the weekends while reading for classes.* But I figured since it was Chris, and since my friend Jacquie gave us free tanning certificates -- why not?
So I had been tanning outside a few times and had worked up a pretty good base tan on my arms and legs so I was like, eh I'll go for like 12 minutes. Normally if it had been forever I would go for 8, but as stated previous I had a base.
Now... the issue was that the base was on my legs, arms and face and no where else -- this means everywhere else is burnt to a crisp. Literally I feel like a piece of overcooked chicken.
So since the cost of aloe has gone up dramatically in the past couple of years I decided to go for a home remedy and I just took a baking soda bath to try and balance my pH levels a bit.
Now I just feel like I have sun-poisoning.
I also washed my hair in the sink -- which has become one of my new favorite past-times for when I want to look like I showered.
I have not been showering that much lately.
I have been working out a lot more though. I think it's better this way.
Oh and as for classes, I am in class from 9am to 6pm every week day. I am taking Social Inequality, Islam and Beginning Golf.
-Social Inequality is interesting, our teacher thinks we are in Kindergarden though, and talks like she is constantly winning a million dollars.
-Islam is by far my favorite of all the classes I'm currently taking. I have Dr. Talat Halman whom I had Intro to World Religions with. He is one awesome guy. We talk about Christianity a lot and it's just a big discussion class and the grades are based on participation and papers -- my kind of class for sure.
-Beginning Golf is not what I expected. Our prof grades us based on skill level which is insane. Because I really can't help it if I suck at my full swing? You know, some people just don't get it and you should grade based on participation and trying and practice and attendance -- anything else in a sporting class is unfair in my opinion.
These classes are all 3 weekers, which means I am done on Friday. Friday I am going with my Islam class to the Malt Shop and then I am probably going to move some stuff out of my apartment then maybe go out with Jacquie and some of her friends later.
I love leggings. I am sorry but they are so comfortable. I want to wear them everywhere but I know that is inappropriate.
I have to write this paper about "Who really rules America." It can pretty much be summed up in two adjectives; old and white.
Alas, my kindergarden teacher probably expects something a bit more in depth.
Once Monday is past I plan to spend a lot of time in Glen Arbor with my family.
I also plan to spend a lot of time traveling, I am just not sure where too yet. I might go visit my friend Ismelda in Wisconsin. I would really like to go to Florida but I don't know if that's possible. I need to go to Washington, DC also.
If you would like to go to any of these places with me, let me know!

Shalom,
