02.20.2021 - Day 30!!!
SUPER SATURDAYYYY
Today I slept in good and long, as I had no real agenda today. I sat comfortably in bed and scrolled through various apps on my phone for a couple hours before getting up and getting ready for my day. I started of course with brushing my teeth and washing my face. Then, in celebration of one whole month logging this, I did my Lush coffee mask, too. I let that sit while scrolling on my phone some more and then washed it off. I finished up with some toner and spf. Then I took my vitamins and flonaze. I headed to my room where I did my makeup. Simple yet effective, I really liked it today!
Tumblr media
Juno wanted to be included in the last recorded morn
Tumblr media
Makeup made me happy today
To keep up with the good mood I was in, I made myself some oatmeal with honey, cinnamon, and flax seed. On the side I washed up some blueberries and raspberries and made a chai latte. Juno joined me with a grape, but decided that wasn’t enough for him as he snuck over and stole one of my raspberries. I couldn’t really blame him, they were so good. 
Tumblr media
One of my fav meals, if you haven’t noticed
Tumblr media
raspberry > grape
After eating I kinda bopped around the apt for a bit doing little things here and there, eventually laying in bed watching more iCarly and working on a coloring sheet for a contest through my apartment. The winner gets a Target giftcard, so these cdes skills better pay off! I made a trip to Target at one point where I stocked up on more blueberries, raspberries, cottage cheese, milk, yogurt, and bread. After that, more iCarly.
Eventually my friend Lily reached out with the plan for game night! So I walked to her place and we dropped off her roommate on our way to Jennas. We played lots of games I had never heard of, such as sushigo, exploding kittens, and amoxia(?) They were so fun! It’s been a long time since I’ve really played any new games, as over quarantine my family and I tend to stick to our favorites that we already own. After a fun night, Lily and her boyfriend walked me home, but not before grabbing fries (yes, again) from Mr. Santana. I didn’t want greasy food two days in a row but after stepping in and getting a whiff, I figured I had to. We finished the walk back and I sat in my apt eating. I threw on iCarly again for a bit and then Lisa came out of her room and we caught up on the last couple of days, as we’ve both been so busy we’ve barely seen each other! Now I am writing this post and gonna hit the sack.
I sincerely hope you have enjoyed Brynsconsumption. It was an interesting exercise that led me to deeper analyze how I spent my time and what i consume day-to-day. With that, I bid you farewell.

Freakin’ Friday!
I slept way in this morning and it felt great! I got up around 10:30 and sat on my phone for a good while until it was time to start my day. I had a doctors appointment via phone call as a check in on my meds at 1, so I did all the dishes and made a bunch of tags for my small business. After the call, I did all my “gettin ready” stuff. Then I did my makeup and took my time and added extra steps for funsies. Then I got dressed and packed up my school bag and went to Gray’s coffee to meet my friend Margot and do homework! I got a horchata cold brew for the first time and it was yummy!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I worked on a couple assignments as we sat and caught up. Time really flew by as i realized it was already 5 and I had not eaten anything. So, we went our separate ways and I came back to my place and made 2 pb&js. I enjoyed them while scrolling through tikok. After that, I finished my reflection paper for Exercise class and took a short quiz for Folklore. So now I’m done with everything due tonight1 Yay! I got all these things done early as I have another craft night tonight with my friends! I’m super excited, I will probably bring something to crochet. I packed up my stuff, changed clothes, and watered my plants that needed it. I did some little cleaning around the apt while waiting for meet up with my buds and walk to Marcy Park.
I met up with my friends and we walked to the house! We had a great time playing games and chatting until we went home around 1am. At some point in the night I got fries at Mr.Santana with Stephanie! It was so fun. I got home and let Juno out and talked to Lisa and Max. Good times & tan lines.

TGIT people
Today I woke up at 7am for class. I got myself up and did the usual ‘tine. Blinds. Juno. Brush. Wash. Moisturize. Makeup. Threw a vanilla cappuccino K-Cup in the Keurig and made a large in my thermos. Off I went to meet Adam and catch the bus to St.Paul campus.

In class we did direct application dyeing and finished up our positive designs. I’m hoping to coat and expose my screens next week! I really love how everything is turning out. After class, Laura and I went to Target and got Starbucks. I got a vanilla bean frappe. At Target i just bought a pint of blueberries on sale. Then Laura took me home where I sat on the couch on my phone for a bit and eventually drifted off for a 2 hour nap. Upon waking up, I realized that I entirely missed a zoom call with my mentor :/ I’m very sad about it and will be sending an apology.

I went to Design and Discontents and made my sketches for my redesign ideas and turned them in. Next I worked on finishing up my paper all night. I ate some berries as a snack and made spaghetti for dinner. I stayed up quite late finishing assignments but luckily got to sleep in.

02.17.2021 - Day 27
Wacky Wednesday
I woke up around 10 this morning and scrolled through my Twitter timeline before getting out of bed, opening the blinds, and uncovering Juno. The usual. I did my morning routine, also as usual, and went back to my room to get dressed. i did not bother with any makeup because I had exercise class and simply was not feeling it. I put on my comfy athletic wear and got my stuff ready. The walk to the bus stop was quite pleasant, as it is definitely warming up a bit (above zero, at least). I rode the bus to the Recwell and headed to the gym. I got there super early today and just sat on my yoga mat and scrolled on my phone for a few minutes. Class was really fun today, I always feel so nice after. We don’t do enough to get like really sweaty, but we get some great stretches, breathing, and muscle work in.
Tumblr media
Very quick morn
After class I decided to walk home since it wasn’t too awful out and I wasn’t in the mood to figure out which bus is the best to take home. I threw in my Airpods and listened to my Spotify liked songs. Once home, my roommates and I ran to the front desk to get our magnetic keys reprogrammed, as they redid the door to the gym and ours no longer worked. After that I came back and did some dishes. I then rinsed some raspberries and blueberries in my absolutely adorable new berry dish and made a cup of peach green tea and sat and did my readings for Scandinavian Folklore.
Tumblr media
These were so good oml
During class I made two chai tea lattes from my concentrate. After that class was done I got myself some cottage cheese, grapes, a clementine, and two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.They really hit the spot.  While eating I watched an episode of iCarly on Netflix! I started it last night after my post while I sewed some facemasks for my small business. After that I finished designing my business card designs for Text & Image in preparation for class tonight. In class we went over everyone’s final designs. After class got out, I fixed up the uploads of my designs and made sure they were right, then I sat on my phone for a bit to relax. I made myself a bowl of Cheerios mmmm. They are heart-shaped as a special edition for February, very cute. I will now likely work on assignments, get ready for tomorrow, and shower. Smell ya later!

Terrific Tuesday
Today I woke up at 7 and checked my notifications before getting out of bed, opening the blinds, and uncovering Juno. I made my way to the bathroom where I brushed my teeth, did my skincare, and took my vitamins as per usual. I then came back to my room where I did some quick makeup then picked an outfit and got dressed, keeping in mind the -15 degree reading. I bundled up then packed my bag and headed out to catch the buses.
Tumblr media
Morn corn
Tumblr media
Easy peasy
In class we got to dye out own piece of fabric to prepare for our next prints! It was super fun and I ended up with a great pink color. After class, Laura generously gave me a ride home. Once back, I worked on my paper for a bit and ate a bowl of cereal. I’m now on a weird cereal kick, it’s just how I eat. I then attended therapy which was nice. After a while I felt so sluggish and worn out, so I set a 1 hour timer on my phone and curled up for a nap. I woke up feeling a bit better and worked more on my paper until it was time for class.
Tumblr media
Literally dyeing
Tumblr media
Final product
We peer reviewed within our groups for awhile, and I added a bit more to my paper. After class, I worked on finishing up my positive designs for Color, as I am super excited to print my design! I also sat and played ukulele for awhile, which was very relaxing. I sat for a bit and looked into different living situations for next year and different study abroad options. It’s just so tricky to make those decisions given the current situation. Sigh. Hopefully it will all work out.
Now I will work on some assignments, pack up my stuff for Exercise class tomorrow, and get ready for bed. I might make some spaghetti too, you never know. Peace out.

02.15.2021 - Day 25
Magic Monday everyone
Today I awoke around 10 but stayed in bed until around 11 as my morning class didn’t meet today. Eventually I got up, still feeling a bit tired from a fun weekend, and got ready. I threw on an outfit and didn’t bother with any makeup today. I wasn’t feeling it.
Tumblr media
Simple morn
I started my mindfulness class and we did some yoga and sitting meditation today, which was really nice but I felt a bit restless. After that I made a chai latte and got ready for Scandinavian Folklore. Nothing too crazy happened in that class and afterwards I worked on my business cards for Text and Image. I continued working until I had about 30 minutes til class, then I started some water for my Frozen 2 Kraft Mac & Cheese I bought at Target yesterday. I made and ate it right on time so I didn’t have to awkwardly eat in class. Critique went well and I’m excited to finish up this project this week. After class I spent a bit of time scrolling on Tiktok to wind down. Eventually I got myself a little cereal as a breakfast for dinner type thing and sat in my room and ate while watching an old Bob’s Burgers. Classic. 
Tumblr media
Mmmm, Olaf
After that I sat down and added some pictures to my weekend’s posts as I simply ran out of time/ was always too tired. Oopsies. Now I am all caught up. I can’t say that I’ll be too sad when I don’t have to do this every night. Anyways, time to do my night routine and get some good sleep for Color bright and early. See ya!

Happy Valentines Day y’all!
This morning I slept way in. I think my body is just not used to getting all those steps in/seeing so many people. Luckily I didn’t really have anything to do. Eventually I got up and did my morning stuff and put on some clothes. I also asked Juno to be my Valentine and he said yes!!

In the early afternoon Laura called and we talked on Facetime for a good while, and eventually expressed mutual interest in buying yarn at Michaels crafts, a fan favorite. So Laura came and picked me up and off we went! We strolled up and down the aisles and eventually got to the holy land: the yarn. We did many a’ lap around, getting a feel for the variety of colors and weights. Eventually we got somewhat of a plan for our future projects and made our selections. I got two large skeins of blanket yarn that I plan on making a sweater out of, as well as some new, larger crochet hooks.
Tumblr media
Yarns n hooks
After Michales we went through Five Below quick where i just had to pick up a box of Sweetarts, my favorite candy, before heading next door to Target. Laura picked out her groceries and of course I had to pick up a couple things along the way. After we checked out Laura drove me back to my place where I then took a long nap. Whoops. The rest of the evening turned into relaxation time. I did some laundry, took a shower, and got ready for the week ahead.

02.13.2021 - Day 23
Sweet ol’ Saturday baby!
After my fun night craftin’ and dancin’ with the girlies, I got a good nights’ sleep,  as my mom was coming in the late morning! I woke up even before my alarm, but laid in bed scrolling until she let me know she was on her way. At that point I got up and did my routine and got dressed.
Tumblr media
Quick morn
Tumblr media
Quick makeup
Soon after, she was here! I went downstairs to greet her and we went to my apt for a bit where she gave me my Valentine’s Day gift! It was a huge piece of art made by one of my favorite local artists in my hometown! over winter break I saw some of her work in a shop and told my mom how much I love it and was gonna save up for one, so it was so thoughtful of her and means a whole lot to me. We figured out what all we would do while she was visiting and I quick ate a bowl of cereal.
Then, we were out the door. Our first stop was this small exotic pet shop that specializes in birds! I had seen so much about this spot as I did loads of research on pet birds after deciding to get Juno last summer, and had always wanted to visit! and oh my GOD it was the coolest spot ever. Right when you walk in theres a huge iguana and chameleon, and that’s just the beginning. The walls were lined with cages of all kinds of birds. I’ve only owned budgies, a cockatiel, and my gcc, so it was really cool to see exotics like amazons, macaws, and toucans. We did multiple laps around the shop, stopping to chat with each sweet animal. My mom ended up buying me some sprouted grass that is bird-safe and super healthy, as well as a toy, for Juno in hopes that he will chew on that instead of my actual plants.
Tumblr media
Toucan!!!
After saying goodbye to all of the birds we decided to go to MOA for lunch and to hit a couple shops, as we both haven’t really shopped much in a while. We didn’t think it would be too busy but oh were we wrong. It was definitely uncomfortable to be in a crowded place right now, so we didn’t stay too long. We just hit a few of our favorite stores. I got some cute earrings and sweatpants from Brandy Melville, some Bath and body works stuff, and an adorable berry dish from Urban. We then made a quick stop at Ikea as I wanted a frame to keep my new art safe! Once we found the right size (and a few other things), we made one last stop at an “actual” Target to pick up some groceries and head back to my place to drop everything off.
We said our goodbyes and although I was very tired from being on my feet much longer than I’m used to these days, I was so grateful to be able to spend the day with my mom. She really treated me shopping ,too, which was so sweet. I put away my new things and relaxed the rest of the night.

Frickin’ Friday! Woo hoo!
Today I woke up around 10:30 and scrolled on my phone for about 45minutes before getting up. I got all the blinds open, made my bed, and uncovered Juno and took him out to go potty. We made our way to the bathroom where I brushed my teeth and washed my face before deciding to use my Lush Cup O Coffee mask! After applying it I went to my room where I continued some linework on my sketch. It’s coming out so great ahh I love it.
Tumblr media
Morning routine
Tumblr media
One of my favorite masks!
Tumblr media
Makeups
I washed off my mask and finished my skincare. Next I got dressed and then worked more on my design for color! I got the outlines all done and added even more detail. I decided to run to the dinkytown print store to get my design scanned properly. After a chilly walk there and back, I got back to my apartment and downloaded the scan. it turned out great! I baked some Valentine’s funfetti cupcakes for my girls night and they’re super cute.
Tumblr media
Scanned design!
Tumblr media
Cutest mini cupcakes
Then, Lisa and I walked to Target, Starbucks, and Potbelly for her free birthday shake for me hehe (she’s vegan). After we got back we put on Lion King 1 1/2! A literal favorite of mine. I sat and cut fabric for masks while we watched (& sang). I set out the cupcakes and a few other little snacks and waited for my three friends to arrive for crafts and Just Dance! 
My friends came over and we chatted, enjoyed my snacks, did some crafts, and ended the night with some intense Just Dance! I had such a great time and it was so nice to see them, this may become a regular thing!

02.11.2021 - Day 21
TGIT y’all!
I woke up to my alarm this fine morning at 7am and laid in bed for 15 minutes on my phone (longer than I wanted but oh well, I was comfy). Eventually I arose and opened the blinds and uncovered my boy Juno. I did a nice lil morning routine and did some nice basic makeup. I picked out my outfit and packed my bag up last night, which was really nice because I tend to be indecisive and take too much time to do so. I got all dressed up and decided to do my hair in two high pigtail braids, since I did not wash it last night as I had intended (oops). It’s okay because I really like how it looks. Laura texted me and offered me a ride t St.Paul so I woudn’t have to take the buses in the cold alone! Very sweet, so I got my shoes and coat on and waited for er to arrive. I once again forgot to bring her her monks cloth chunk, so Laura if you’re reading thing whoops sorry you’ll have to come over hehe.
Tumblr media
Da morn
Once in McNeal we talked more about our next project, then had time to plan and sketch our designs. I got a much better idea of what i wanted to do and am so excited about it! Towards the end of class we were feeling pecking and Laura mentioned chocolate chip bagels and I... could never say no to that are you kidding? So off we went to Rosedale mall where I got a half dozen bagels, 4 choco and 2 cinnamon crunch. I couldn’t wait til i got home, so I ate one choco on the way.
Once home I toasted up another bagel and enjoyed it in the living room while scrolling on Tiktok. It was at this time the early morning and bad week of sleep caught up to me and I had to give in to a nap. I went to my room and laid backwards in my bed with a blanket. Perfection. I ended up sleeping for about 5 hours... yeah... not proud but man did it feel good. I woke up and laid on my phone for a bit. I was so comfy! Sue me! Eventually I got ready for Design and Discontents. We learned about our next project and I started brainstorming. My object was honestly pretty well designed so it’ll be tough to improve, but I have hope! 
After class I worked further on my sketch for Color. I got the sketch all done and started on the outlining! Exciting! I watched one episode of Disenchantment on Netflix! Then I got my laundry sorted and threw in a load and did a quick clean of my bathroom for sh!ts and giggles (ha ha see what I did there?) I also watered all my plants (I think 22 pots total oop) and tidied up around the apartment, as the (covid safe) friends I skate with are coming over tomorrow to do some crafts and play Just Dance! I’m super excited. I started to plan out my day tomorrow, as I want to get some schoolwork done as well as make some brownies or cookies for the evening! I can’t decide which, perhaps both.

A quick photoshop collage of my repeat pattern sketch!

02.10.2021 - Day 20
Hey hey Wednesday
I was very glad to have class cancelled today because I didn’t fall asleep until nearly 5 am.. kinda had a lot going on last night. But I woke up around 11 this morning feeling a lot better. I laid in bed for almost an hour scrolling on Tiktok and Twitter because I was so comfy and not yet ready to get up and work on homework. Eventually I did get up, open the blonds, uncover Juno and take him out, and made my bed. I replaced Juno’s water and gave him fresh pellets and seeds. My computer needed an update so I got that going while I got in the bathroom for my morning routine.
Tumblr media
Morning routine
After that I made my way to my room and just did my eyebrows and threw on a comfy outfit. My favvvvorite sage green Brandy sweats and my We’re Not Really Strangers hoodie. I luv this combo. I made myself a chai latte from concentrate instead of a mix today and it was quite good! I sipped on that while checking emails and planning out my next few days in my calendar. Then I ate a quick banana and did my story readings for Folklore.
Tumblr media
Yummy chai
I hopped on zoom for class at 2:30. We talked about this weeks tales and got started on our group project. After class I sat down and worked on some internship applications for a while. Eventually I began feeling uninspired and frustrated so I went on a nice long walk around Van Cleve park alone. I’m not quite sure why I love Van Cleve so much. I always gain lots of inspiration while I’m there. The sun had just began setting as I got there so by the time I did my lap around, I was greeted by a beautiful sunset over the skyline once I got on the bridge. Right as i began crossing the bridge to head home a short little train came over the railroad tracks. I finished the jaunt home and continued on with my application. Fingers crossed, it seems like a good it for me! My mom facetimed me for just a bit to catch up and talk about coming up this weekend for a short girls’ day. Woot woot!

Tues blues baby.
I woke up this morning at 7 and laid in bed on my phone for about 10 minutes before finally getting up and opening the blinds, making my bed, and uncovering Junie. I wandered to the bathroom for my daily tooth brush, skincare, and vitamin taking.
Tumblr media
‘Tine
Next I bopped over to my desk to do some simple makeup for the day. After that I picked out an outfit, got dressed, grabbed my bags and headed off to catch the bus. Once in St.Paul, we figured out our plan for our next big project in Color. We got started on some sketches before it was time to go. I got on the Campus Connector alone today and headed home. It was really nice to just sit with my Airpods in for a bit. I listened to a lot of The Replacements, a looongtime favorite of mine & my families’. They’re an 80â€Čs rock band from Minneapolis that my dad has loved forever since he’s also from here. We got to go to their last tour in 2014 as a family and it always brings back such good memories for me, and being in Minneapolis just adds to the ~effect~. I got off the bus and finished my jaunt home. It was quite chilly, as it has been, but the bright sun helps it not feel so bad. The music had me in such a good mood that I bought a Replacements tshirt on Depop lol.
Tumblr media
Makeups
Once back at the apartment, I unpacked my thing, worked on a bit of homework, and played ukulele for a good while. I also continued to crochet my scarf I’ve been slowly working on since December while watching Regular Show. I’m almost to the series finale! Luckily, they just put iCarly on Netflix so that will likely be my next childhood-nostalgia-based binge. I like to watch shows like that while sewing or doing crafts. Eventually I logged in for Design and Discontents. My group and I talked about our papers and did some peer review. 
Tumblr media
Juno looking longingly out the window as I work
After class, I sat on my bed and watched a couple more episodes wile finishing off the last bit of the scarf. Then I realized my roommates’ friend Brendan was over so we all chatted for awhile. I then sat down in the living room to work on a scholarship application and finish off the tassels for the scarf. Lisa and I hung out in the living room until it was time for bed. My Exercise class is cancelled for tomorrow and I don’t have to attend Text and Image so just one class tomorrow yahoo.

Magnificent Monday
I awoke this fine morning around 9:45, feeling a bit groggy from my lazy but fun weekend. I resisted the urge to doze off by scrolling through my Twitter timeline before getting up, opening the binds, and making the bed. Oh, and uncovering Juno. I then made my way to the bathroom where I brushed my teeth, did a really nice skincare routine, and took my daily vitamins. I then came into my room and picked a comfy outfit as Exercise class comes first today. I landed on my pink Brandy sweats and black Weezer shirt from their 2016 tour with Panic! At The Disco. Very nice.

Continued!
I had about 15 mins til class so I threw some oatmeal with almond milk in the microwave and got the Keurig going on my chai latte. I tossed my honey, cinnamon, and flax into the oatmeal and the last bit of almond milk into the latte and enjoyed both until it was time for class. 
Tumblr media
Yum!
Exercise class went really well! Some fun new positions as well as improving upon old ones, very nice. After it was done I made a straight up chai tea to sip during Mindfulness class. We learned a new meditation strategy that I am excited to use this week. After that class, I ate a quick banana and refilled my tea to get ready for Folklore. In class I alternated crocheting and working on my business card drafts while listening about different stories. After class I continued my drafts until it was time for critique. It went well! 
Once I was done with that I walked to Target quick to get detergent, deodorant, cottage cheese, and raspberries. It was a nice lil trip. I made my way back and chatted with the roommates while we all worked on some homework. I hope to get to bed early so I can have energy in Color tomorrow!

S-s-s-super bowl Sundayyy 
Another lazy morning. I want to feel bad about it but I really just do not. I had a lazy weekend, but loved getting to see my (covid safe) friends. Today I laid in bed for a good while after waking up, eventually making my way to my bathroom and doing a morning routine. After brushing my teeth, washing and moisturizing my face, and taking my vitamins. 
Tumblr media
Today’s ‘tine
I made myself a bowl of Honey Bunches of Oats and a hot cocoa and sat in the living room on Tiktok while I ate (and then some). I relaxed on the couch for awhile then at some point migrated to my bed and ended up taking a nap. Whoops lol. I slowly got started on some homework while Lisa and Max sat in the living room with the Super Bowl on.
Tumblr media
One of my favorite cereals!
At one point I realized Juno had once again taken a pin off of his bowling toy, so I went to the kitchen to grab the pliers to fix it and realized the sink was leaking into the cabinets below. 🙃 We called emergency maintenance and had someone come by to fix it. Very fun. It was just a loose valve but we wanted to make sure it was done right. Isha cam back from her weekend with her siblings so we all just sort of caught up with each other for awhile.
Tumblr media
Water added for dramatic effect
I threw in some laundry from the week so I have a full closet for the week ahead. I went in and out of doing homework and chatting with the roommates and Max for a while. Eventually I tossed some spaghetti in my FastaPasta. It’s a device I got for my dorm last year that you just put water and spaghetti in and microwave it and BOOM, perfectly cooked pasta with ease. Even though I have a stove now, I still occasionally pull it out for the ease and good memories <3
I topped my sketti with my special secret spice and watched two episodes of Regular Show while I ate. Switched out my laundry and washed up some dishes while listening to the album Peachfuzz by Tabby! He is a local artist that I have seen many times before covid. I miss live music so so much as I was an avid concert-goer, rarely went a month without live music, and now it’s been over a year since my last one! Now I am sitting down to finish up some assignments due at 12 then take a much needed long shower and do some self care. See y’all tomorrow!

Super Saturday!
Today I slept in big time, and even after I woke up I laid in bed for an extra couple hours lol. I didn’t have a particular reason to do so, like I wasn’t tired or sad or anything, just vibed. Eventually I got up to uncover Juno and open up the blinds. I finished up my post for yesterday as I needed to add the photos and got that posted while enjoying a peach yogurt lol. Very lazy morning and early afternoon. I never really “got ready” today, which may have negatively effected my mood. I still felt fine, just sluggish and kinda tired.
Lisa got back from Rochester so we sat and caught up for awhile as she unpacked. Then I got myself a bowl of cereal and sat in my room watching Regular show and finishing up the headband earwarmer I crocheted her for her birthday. I got it finished and all wrapped up in a cute lil bag. Hope she likes it! She said something last week about wanting one that matched her blue mittens, so I made it out of bright blue yarn with an added red embroidered heart. It was a nice easy project to work on while listening to lectures to keep my hands busy.
Tumblr media
Juno is very helpful
Then I got a message from Lily that her and Steph were going to our friend Jenna’s place for game night! It sounded super fun so I said I was down and they picked me up. The walk was chilly as this week has been, but we were bundled up. We hung out and played games for hours. It was so fun! At one point we ran next door to get some food at a small business. I got some french fries and they were delicious! Eventually we all walked home and I got ready for bed and watched an episode of Regular Show.

Wahoo it’s Friday!
I stayed up later than intended last night but it didn’t really matter because I got to sleep in B) I woke up at 11 on the dot, which felt amazing, and laid in bed for about 30 minutes on my phone, checking notifications. Then I got up, opened up the blinds to a nice sunny day, and uncovered Juno and brought him to assist me in getting ready. We went to the bathroom where he once again organized the q tips and cotton pads while I brushed my teeth, did my skincare, and took my vitamins. Then I quick did my brows with Glossier Boy Brow and Elf clear gel and put some Glossier Cloud Paint on my cheeks. I picked out an outfit, black thrifted Dickies, mock neck, and my adorable yellow t-shirt from a local coffee shop in my hometown, Rochester, MN. It has a cute sketched graphic of two people titles “how to make friends” and one guy says “would you like to get coffee?” and the other says “I thought you’d never ask”. Apologies for the over-explaination but it is so adorable I love it.

Helpful man
Anyways next I made some oatmeal with the usual toppings, a chai tea (actual tea this time), and a yogurt. I prepared a small plate for Juno with a grape and flax seeds. We enjoyed out breakfast together in the kitchen. Next I got to work on some homework. I did a postural analysis for my Posture and Personal Exercise class and watched a short film and answered questions for Scandinavian Folklore over some cucumber slices.

After finishing up all my homework due, I made a trip to Target! I was starting to run low on some stuff and knew it was gonna be a big trip. My total was around $45 but I am now stocked. I ran into my old friend Ben who I haven’t seen in a good while, so we talked as we checked out our groceries and walked home. Then I cracked into some Ben & Jerry’s I had bought while I watched Regular Show. Very nice.
After a bit, I got ready for some plans I made with Lily, Stephanie, and Clea! We usually go ice skating on Fridays but today we decided to do a dinner and chill night, as it was super cold out today. They came to Target to pick up some ingredients and scooped me from my lobby after. We walked to their place and had a lovely evening. They walked me and Clea back to Dinkytown around 2am lol. Gotta love those nights where you just loose track of time. I got in my pjs and did my night routine, watched an episode of Regular Show, and drifted off to sleep.

Thursday Thursday! TGIT
I awoke this fine morning at 7, feeling a bit groggy as I didn’t get to bet quite as early as I had planned, and it didn’t help that it was still fairly dark and peacefully snowing. Prof JBB did email and say that if roads were too rough we could skip, but I had great faith in the Campus Connector. I got up and did the usual morning routine and got myself dressed. I take the printing process into consideration and tend to do darker colors to avoid stains. I make a quick chai latte in my thermos and headed out.
Tumblr media
Simple routine for an early morning
Tumblr media
Quick n easy makeup
I met up with Adam and the bus rides went flawlessly. We got to St.Paul and met up with Laura and the other students who braved the weather. We got right to coating our screens and exposing our alter-ego designs. I was kinda meh about how my positive looked until I saw it printed. I ended up really liking it! We finished up printing and soaked the emulsion off and cleaned our screens for our next project we’ll start Tuesday! Once cleaned up, we were released and Laura and I went to Joanns in Roseville to pick up my online order of some monkscloth as we both have punch needles to make custom rugs! I also found a darling green glass plant mister and it was on sale PLUS I had a coupon so I just had to get it, obviously. We got out of Joanns and we’re both famished... and there was a Panera right there... so yes we went to Panera. $3 and two chocolate chip bagels later, I am content. Laura drove me home where I unloaded my things and cut Laura’s piece of monkscloth as payment for her friendship <3

Two of my “alter-ego” prints!
I hung out with Juno until I headed to Gray’s coffee around the corner to meet up with Margot and work on homework! I am not one to go to restaurants during these times, or ever really, but I love a good coffee shop and have found the precautions at this one superb. The seating area is well spaced out and you order rigt from your table to avoid additional crowding. I really enjoy being able to meet up with a friend somewhere public and catch up without freezing our butts off outside. 
I sat and started this post lol as well as work on writing my abstract and business card drafts! It was nice to get stuff done & catch up with a bud. After a while I went back to the apartment to make some Kraft mac n cheese for dinner before class. I ate it while watching some more Regular Show, which I had taken a few days off from. Then I got logged in for class and crocheted while listening to the parameters for our first paper. After class I scrolled through Tiktok for awhile and snapchatted some friends. Lisa’s been home in Roch this week & Isha is visiting her brother so I’ve got the apartment all to myself tonight. I have mostly just been relaxing on my phone and listening to music. See ya tomorrow!
