Hello again!

Second post, and today was pretty successful... in weird ways.  First of all I finally cleaned my dorm room. Which is a really good thing because otherwise I have no room.  I also got to Walmart (at last) and got the peanut butter, nutella, and cereal I need to supplement my food.

You see, my university meal plan works on a point system- which is basically a real world dollar system.  You can buy food (pre-processed) with each item costing some amount.  They sell cereal in the individual boxes for about 3 dollars and you still have to buy the milk.  So I go to walmart to get cheap generic cereal and milk.  It's kinda annoying because my brother (who goes to a different college) has a meal plan where he has 3 meals a day.  Each cafeteria has a swiping area and every time you enter it's one meal.  The worst part?  My brother's ends up being cheaper overall even though I'm on the cheapest plan.  But I guess it's just something I have to get used to.  I know in the "real world" you have to pay for everything you eat- but you can also have a fridge where you can store more than one meal at a time.  Not to mention you can actually have fresh fruit and vegetables.  There aren't any on campus except the occasional $1 banana.  I'm not even sure if the meal plan situation is the same in other colleges or not.  It's very hard for me because I'm out-of-state and I don't have a car to get off campus.

But thankfully the campus is pretty big so I can get some exercise by walking.  I need to start running, but I just hate it so much...  I didn't even really work out today.  I did a couple crunches and the shakeweight (yes that actually works.  Don't believe it? Grab one and do the included workout.  Or just shake it for 6 minutes straight.) but I had a big brunch today and I think I didn't burn enough.

Oh well, at least I got the video done and I'm getting a good start on my homework.  Plus Monday means only 2 classes.  So I get to relax a bit, maybe straighten my desk... and look for "Shadows of Destiny" on PSP.  I saw it at gamestop and really want to get it.  Hopefully I can find it for cheaper online.

Well, that's about all I got.  Hopefully I can actually rant about something later- that is what these blogs are usually for right? :P

Later!
