<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">please excuse me for being the most absentee blogger</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">... </span></span>you see, recently my life has taken a turn for the <span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">busy</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"> </span></span>and my poor blog has been neglected.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">this is my life...</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">four</span></span> days of the week I spend most of my waking hours working at the best job ever. with some of the sweetest girls I know and the greatest customers around. compromising about <u>30 hours</u> of my week.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">on top of all that goodness. i spend roughly <u>20 hours</u> a week on campus studying my heart out. (keep in mind that this is only <span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">two</span></span> days of the week)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">i spend about <u>56 hours</u> of my week sleeping. yet my left eye continues to twitch <b>all day long</b>. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">i reserve <span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">one</span></span> day of my week, a whole <u>24 hours</u>, to relax and focus on the most important things.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">my kitchen cupboards are full of on the go snacks, because i rarely, if ever, eat in my actual apartment. luckily, my parents <i>(and jeff's parents for that matter)</i> still let me depend on them for proper nutrition. all in all I spend about <u>14 hours</u> eating a week.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><br />
</i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal;">plus i have to manage to make time for the people i like to be around. <i>needless to say, they don't get much of my attention. </i>probably only about <u>24 hours</u> a week.</span></i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">so you see, my blog just simply hasn't been worked into any of the <u>168 hours</u> in my week.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>and I could promise that this leave of absence will end. but even though my week of five miserable midterms has just come to a close, i don't have any more time on my hands than before.</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><br />
</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">but life is good and i am happy.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">and for those of you who have been asking....i <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">do promise</span> this: </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i>one day, <u>eventually</u>, i will devote more time to this lovely blog and reassure you that i am not in fact dead, or miserable. </i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">but until then....</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">for example, one hundred dollars vs. one hundred pennies. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">big difference.</span> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">or how about one hundred days vs. one hundred seconds.... see what i mean?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b>but for me today, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">one hundred is a lot. </span>one hundred is the number of blogs I have posted on this blog. </b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">now i will be honest with you, i never though i could really get into blogging. my sister and i started a blog years ago and i think i posted twice. but i think i kind of like it by now. not only is it a way for my friends and family to figure out what is going on in my life (especially the ones that live far away) but it is a nice and easy way for my to remember my own happenings. </span><br />
