Just Another Manic Monday

Happy Monday. "You have to get through Monday to get through the rest of the week." A guy said this to me today and I found it very insiteful after having the day I had. Woke up late...as always. Went to drop the duty phone off at the Res Life office at 8 am. (My first class starts at 8 am.) I got several wild looks with my sopping wet hair and bowl of oatmeal in hand. As I sprinted to class, inhaling my oatmeal, I came to a horrifying realization: I FORGOT TO BRUSH MY TEETH. This has never happened to me before. I was horrified as I felt my rotten teeth in my mouth. Everyone was going to know. I felt disgusting. I chewed gum all day and brushed my teeth as soon as I got back to my dorm. I pray that this never happens again.

Always Somethin'

After studying all day, I went to eat Thanksgiving dinner with my sorority. After dinner was over, I found my leather Lucky brand bag with coke spilled all over it. Just my luck. The coke will not come out and I later found a sticker in my hair. Is this real? Do these things happen to other people? I then sat back and thought that worse things happen to other people and I am thankful to have a leather bag to get coke spilled on and hair to get a sticker stuck in.

That Time of Year

It's that time of year to eat as much as you weigh. Preparing for the Miss UNA pageant requires a fit body; therefore, eating chili cheese dogs at 3 am probably does not help to attain this. However, since I was up all night for no apparent reason, I was hungry. So, a friend of mine brought me a chili cheese dog, which I of course devoured. I should probably start getting serious about dieting. Maybe I will wait until after Thanksgiving. Just another day in my life.

Never Open Your Umbrella Inside- It Brings Bad Luck

So this week has been nothing out of the ordinary, just another week in the life of K Chap. It started out like every other week, late for class every day and late for everything else possible. One particular day, I woke up late for my test- I had 30 minutes to get ready and study before my exam. As I was applying mascara in hopes of making my frazzled self look somewhat decent, my power went out. I stood in the dark, mascara brush in hand, for approximately 30 seconds when I realized I had to hurry. I stepped outside where the light in the hall was still on and quickly finished my makeup. I returned to my bathroom and applied blush in the dark, hoping it was dispersed evenly. After putting clothes on in the dark, my lights came back on. I left with 5 minutes to get to my test. For once I was prepared for the rain. After being in college for a year and a half, I had finally purchased a new umbrella the previous day. As I opened my umbrella and began to walk, it broke and flipped upside down. I sat the open umbrella down in class as everyone stared. After my test, I proceeded to walk back outside with my upside down umbrella when a girl asked, "Kaitlin, why is your umbrella upside down?" Thinking to myself, "Oh I just wanted to be different," I told her it had broken. She proceeded to ask me why I had not tried to fix it. Again thinking to myself, "I obviously attempted to fix it right away," I told her I tried. The wind then blew the umbrella back down only to blow it back up an hour later. As I strolled to class giggling under my upside down umbrella, the students that passed me definitely got a good laugh out of my silly luck. Needless to say, leaving an umbrella open inside must indeed bring bad luck.
