Things I Missed While I Was In Oregon

I’m home! And I already forgot almost everything I learned and I am already behind on my homework. But this semester is going to be GREAT. I am going to do GREAT work and LOTS of it and MAKE PROGRESS and BE SMARTER with my time and STOP PROCRASTINATING and probably CRY A LOT in the meantime.

The most upsetting thing about leaving the world-as-I-know-it for 10 days is missing out on some really big things. Like, really big things. Like, things I wished the rest of the world-as-I-know-it would wait until I got home to enjoy it. So I made myself a list to feel better.

1. The birth of Blue Ivy Carter

2. The Golden Globes

3. Getting a free copy of Steve Jobs at work.

4. My new welly socks! (These are not the ones I got. Mine are pink and fleece. My calves are also a little too chunky to wear them with pants so I guess I’ll be wandering around puddles while bare-legged.)

5. The dramatic capture of the O.C. serial killer who was targeting homeless dudes. (Okay, so maybe it wasn’t that dramatic but I’m just glad they have a suspect in custody. Also, what kind of serial killer actually stabs their victim while other people are around? Come on now.)

6. CES 2012: Now I will never know what kind of cool and impractical technology will never be available to real consumers.

7. More “Shit ____ Says” (Actually, I’m kind of okay with missing out on this.)

8. Chipotle: Even though their food always makes my tummy hurt, I missed their chips, guacamole and bowls of cilantro rice.

Wait, Chipotle isn’t something that happened, though. It’s just a chain restaurant that I missed eating at 4 days a week. Nevermind. This list sucks.
