Right so today was the day of my presentation. I wound up pulling my first real all-nighter EVER. I wound up preparing a pretty damn good 20 minute presentation for my Art History class. My teacher actually seemed pretty nice about it! He did seem anxious when he accidentally volunteered me to go this week, so all he said after I was done was that I should've focused more on the painting and could've delved further to find out that it was about the 100 year war. And he corrected my grammar. But with all luck, I didn't fail! Yay!
Also, I have the best friends EVER. I walked with Alix out of the class, and I was still super-loopy from not having slept. She said something about cookies, and I said that I really just wanted to sleep. Then, she said something about how Rachel and she had made them last night! They had stayed up till 1 trying to figure out how to make cookies in Rachel's apartment, since her host family was gone. They concocted a mixture of peanut M&M's, walnuts, peanuts, flour, brown sugar, and vanilla sugar. It was crazy. They actually reminded me of my grandma's cookies, since they were flat and chewy.
Before cookies, Alix and I went out for sushi, which was really nice and just what I needed.
AND THEN Rachel comes out with this box of eclairs and a napoleon! AHhhh it was too good.
Anyway, the moral is I'm going to sleep RIGHT NOW and not waking up until 10:15 a.m. Good night, world!!!
Oh, and I have ice cream. Can't get much better, considering the downfall of misery that was Monday and Tuesday! Wahoo, karma!
I'm so glad!
