EEK, it's Wednesday! (2-27-2013)

Hello, all!
So, I kind of need to make this post a bit brisk, because 1) spring break is next week, MEANING that it's midterm time! and 2) because with the newly found energy from stress, I really need to go to the gym and exhaust some of it.
The good news for me is that I will be done with exams tomorrow, as well as my courses until after break. That good news for my readers is that when I stress, I cook, and after break, I also will have a little bit more time to get creative with my food blog, to which I already have ideas of some things I would like to accomplish! I have recently been donated a gallon bag of kumquats  with the request "find something to do with them." Challenge ACCEPTED! And I will have guinea pigs with input, thank goodness!
Also, in recent news, one of my coworkers has just turned twenty one! It's time to take them out and get them really smashed. I don't mind helping with that, and I don't encourage drinking often, but being twenty one doesn't get old until you're twenty two, and so you've got to use its perks while you have them available. Another coworker has announced her pregnancy, so I should be making her a cake, it seems, in celebration.
Anyways, so a quick anecdote of my day: I was walking home from the bus stop and there was a boy, who was maybe ten at the oldest, riding his bike on the sidewalk ahead of me. He kept looking back at me, as if he were expecting me to do something. I continued walking forward. Occasionally, he would stop, and slowly walk his bike around in a circle, and when I was close enough, he would continue biking away from me. Finally, he turned around, and was passed each other, and I continued on my way home. At the corner of the street that I turn on to get home, I heard the sound of an acorn popping, so I turned around, and it was the little boy; he had been following me up to my corner until I turned, and then he went back home. I smiled because some part of me recognized this game; the game that you play with yourself, and others, but not to the knowledge of the said other people. It was one of the more pleasant events of my week, I should say! And it also gives me joy to see a chile outdoors, not cooped up inside playing video games or absorbed by their television.
Now, I must return to my studies! And then run the stress off. Come Friday, I might do a little stress unloading, beware!
