literally, would wear this sweatshirt ALL THE TIME |
Seriously, I don't know what's come over me lately. It's like I have ZERO motivation to do anything. I don't know if it's this incredible longing for home, my family and my sorority, and the comfort of everything southern, or maybe it's the sudden change in the weather here in buenos aires. fall is definitely around the corner. Or maybe it's a little bit of both. Whatever the reason, I've turned into the world's biggest bum. I'd like nothing more than to lay in my cute little twin bed, in my comfiest pajamas, and watch movies all day on cuevana. (which is like the greatest thing ever; endless streaming movies and tv shows totally
gratis; on the other hand, it's totally feeding my laziness. gah!) After waking up super late (after 11:00, I never sleep this late!) I piddled around in my room for what seemed like ages. Listening to country music (which I shouldn't do, it only makes me miss everything t
hat much more). Reading TFM and creeping facebook. And all of this was done whilst still in my pjs. It took everything in me to make myself change out of pajamas and into real clothes. Feeling somewhat more productive no longer wearing pajamas, I fixed myself a very simple (yet still delish) lunch of tuna and avocado on crackers. No need for breakfast since I literally slept through it!

After that, I fought the urge to lay back down in my bed, and ventured out into the busy street in front of my apartment (which was noticeably less-hectic today; I'm assuming everyone was taking advantage of
Semana Santa and relaxing). And where did I go? The tanning bed, naturally. Literally less than a block from my apartment. Somehow, I've found a way to indulge my guilty pleasure even in a foreign country. I know it's a horrible habit, and it always makes me more tired when I get out, but I love it. So I'm a little self-absorbed, who isn't? I did manage to wander around Palermo Soho for about an hour and a half, window-shopping and making mental notes of which boutiques I want to come back to. Since then, I have literally been in my bed, on my laptop, exactly as I am right now. I changed into my stitched letter Phi Mu sweatshirt (physically comfortable, and personally comforting) put on a country-music playlist, and have not moved other than to make a cup of hot tea and take the occasional pee break.
I'm hoping the structure of the week will pull me out of this slump. If nothing else, class, running team and ISA will get me out of my bed and out of the apartment. But for tonight, I'm giving in. I'm going to continue to lay here, in my bed and wait for mom or Charlsey to get on skype so we can chat. I might even have another cup of tea. Besitos!
