Everything takes longer than you think it will.

Today I was legitimately somewhat productive in my re-learning of heat transfer. And I didn't stuff myself with food out of frustration or [what's the word I'm looking for? when you take advantage of something because you don't get to do it often? I will be so relieved when I think of the right word, but I'm almost positive it won't come before I am ready to post this]. I spent all day in the huge, nice cafeteria on campus that even has bathrooms in it so there's no reason to leave. I was there for about 10 hours, which seems like a lot, but my record of staying in a caf is 13 consecutive hours. Yeah, I'm a champ. I ran into my old roommate from freshman year and we had a nice chat. I had rainbow sherbet and cake batter/mackinac island fudge ice cream. It's always fun to record what ice creams I have, none of the other food matters as much. Maybe I could do a list of ice creams I've had each year or month or season or something, like how Hayley records the number of Chipotle burritos.

Since it's the last day of BEDA, I am of course going to do a little "reflections" section. This April started out with me complaining about my eye, which is now completely better! I feel like something must have caused it that will come back to haunt me, but I am ignoring that possibility. Also, there was some extreme weather. We are finally into spring, with the mediocre temperatures and the rainy days, but there was some snow and some summer sunshine in there as well. I had some mood swings, with about an even amount of emo and happy days. I am currently content, but worried in the back of my mind because last time I was happy I completely was caught off guard at how hard my one exam was, and now I have 5 and I am not freaking out enough.

This month I met some friendly people by being a loner and going to things where everyone already knows each other but they were nice enough to let me hang out with them, and maybe I will get to know them better next year.

Hmmm, what else? The Royal Wedding happened just recently, but I didn't watch it so there's nothing to comment on there. Starship comes out today, but I am not going to watch it yet because it will throw me off of my studying.

Last April haiku, because I have been neglecting them:

Bug crawls across desk
let it scurry out of sight
it was never there
