I'm Finished

I actually completed everything.

I know, mind-blowing, right?

I have a whole extra week in Ithaca to wonder what the heck is up with the weather and enjoy this city...and this lake...without the pressure of classes. It's great. It's fantastic!

The only thing is, there's no more dining halls. Meaning I actually have to feed myself. Upon preparing for this, I realized I do not know how to do this. Which is why I am eating mini wheats, hummus wraps and microwaveable dinners and soups plus whatever I can put peanut butter on for the next week. This was my grocery list:

-Milk
-Wheat wraps
- Hummus
-Bagged salad
- Things for dinner??

Luckily, there are many things you can put peanut butter on. Oreos are one of them. My roommate showed me this yesterday, and she shouldn't have. Because that's officially all I'm eating for the rest of my life. It is horrifying and yet actually delicious. I am also probably going to die at a young age.

All this free time also gives me ample time to stretch out my waxing-nostalgic about the past year. I love this stuff and I hate this stuff at the same time. Goodbyes are no fun at all. Particularly after a year this transformative and this amazing.

So prepare yourself.

I have never in my life put peanut butter on an Oreo and I'm wondering why. Peanut butter? Chocolate? Two great tastes that taste great together!

(Your parents will get that.)

Also? My grocery list still looks kinda like yours. Maybe I'm not so old after all. Yes, I'm quoting commercials from the '70s, but I still eat like a six-year-old.

I should just stop writing now.

(We're all looking forward to seeing you!)
