HA!
I have a zillion things to say but I have class in half an hour. So here's to a stream of consciousness type post. Ready? OK!
First of all, McConn broke! I was there to witness it. My math class got out early today so I went with the girl who sits next to me to McConn. After we ordered, one of the baristas asked "Does it smell like something is burning?" and it smelled like burnt coffee and rubber. Yuck. They are still making drinks but very slowly and the main machine is incapacitated. I feel so bad for it, like I should buy it a band aid for all the good times it has gotten me through. Just kidding. I did get coffee, but they're operating at like half speed. I would hate to see it at a busy time today. Hopefully it is fixed soon.
Second, the repair man looked a lot like Harvey from my summer at Clydehurst. Dr. Harvey Hartman who teaches at Liberty University insisted that everyone call him Harvey. All summer he fixed whatever needed fixing on camp grounds and was as sweet and humble as could be. His relationship with his wife, Chris, was an awesome example for all of us. She would ride on the back of his four-wheeler (aww) and he would wait for her to get in the lunch line (aww) and he would pour everyone's drinks at the table for staff meals (aww!). Seriously, the man is a great example of a Godly man. Not just his manners, but the way he spoke on Sundays and his true passion for this ministry. He is a very cool guy.
Third, I decided to wear lipstick today. I associate lipstick with old Hollywood glamour, Snow White, and moms. My mom wears lipstick pretty much every day. She also drinks coffee pretty much every day and therefore every time she drinks coffee, there's a stain on the rim of the drink. It's strange what you become reminiscent of when you're gone from home! So today, I'm wearing lipstick and drinking coffee and I had a strange moment of "I'm 19!" and "I'm only 19!" It was a doublethink moment (anyone, literary reference?) of "Dang, I am OLD" and "What? I'm not an adult!"so that's happening in my world today.
Fourth, my friend Kate just cut her hair and it's super cute. I don't want mine that short, but I'm considering chopping it so it brushes my shoulders. I won't do it for a long time because this idea just came into my head and it takes me forever to decide about things like that.
Fifth, I feel like I don't have a ton going on this week which is great. Did I mention I go home on Friday for Spring Break? Woohoo! I'll be spending some time in Wisconsin with my grandparents and cousins and generally doing what needs to be done (errands, cleaning, loving, being awesome, the works) and then I'll be seeing "A Midsummer Night's Dream" in Chicago. I prefer Shakespeare's tragedies to his comedies, but I'll take what I can get. I would like to see the art institute as well, but we'll see how much time I have. Other than that, spring break will be spent relaxing. Can you tell I'm excited? I haven't written anything down yet, but I have a packing list in my head. What's up, this is my life.
Sixth, people from my hometown church were on a mission trip to Mexico this past week. Yeah for serving God in radical ways! I want to get home so I can hear the awesome stories.Okay all, happy Monday. Whew, 15 minute brain dump leaves 5 minutes for editing and 10 for getting to class.
