My Wild and Crazy Friday Nights

Dear People Who Read My Blog,

Hello. I'm sorry we haven't chatted in a while. It's been a little crazy for me. I work all the time and if I'm not at work, I'm at school. And if I'm not doing one or both of the aforementioned, I'm doing homework. It's a really fascinating life I live, or as my sister "kindly" told me last night "You know Sarah, you're kinda lame. You don't have a life anymore. Like you need to go do things on Friday nights and you need more friends." Ah yes. Thank you dear one.

You see, here's my problem. Because I am out of the house all day every day and I am constantly interacting with people, Friday night rolls around and literally all I want to do is go to bed. I don't want to go anywhere, be with anybody, or do anything. So Friday night, (last night), rolled around and I was more tired than I have been in a long while. My sisters went to a friend's house for a sleepover and my parents wanted me to catch a movie maybe and grab some dinner with them, and I sat there and shook my head.

"No, I said, I'm not going anywhere. I'm putting my pajamas on, doing some homework, eating, and going to bed."

"Just grab dinner with us. It won't be for too long."

"No thanks. I'll just stay home."

"Why are you wanting to stay home," they ask.

"Because. Because it's Friday and this extrovert wants to be an introvert for the night and stay home. And not be social. And not do anything. And not talk to anyone. I just want to stay here and act very old."

So that's exactly what I did. I put pajamas on and worked on homework. Then, I made myself some coffee so I wouldn't go to bed at 7 at night because that's just a LITTLE too adult-ish for me. And then my parents brought me home dinner, and I ate, and I talked to them, and then I went upstairs and went to bed. Because that's what I do on Friday nights. My parents really have to watch me because I really like to sneak out and party hard on Friday nights. *cough* Not.

I must say I am bewildered about how people can go out on Friday nights and party till 2 or 3. I really am. I have no idea how they do it. Because this 18 year old hits 2 or 3 in the afternoon and begins calculating how long it is till I can crawl into my bed. I honestly don't know how people do it. If you do this staying up and enjoying the night out, please tell me how you survive because I'm feeling very old and adult-ish for wanting to stay at home and doing absolutely nothing at the beginning of every weekend. So those are my wild crazy Friday nights. It's really almost too much fun to handle all at once. What do your Friday nights look like?

Thanks for listening to me ramble.

Sincerely,
A wild and crazy Sarah

Why, Hello There

I've been so remiss and for that I apologize. It isn't that I haven't been blogging. No, that hasn't been the problem. The real problem is that I have a REQUIRED blog for school, so naturally, that takes precedent which means this gets neglected. I'm so sorry. I feel like I may have a favored child who I am spending more time with. Is this what it's like. No, probably not. Not by a long shot. But still, here I am, not spending time creating rambling posts.

10 Things I Have Been Up To:

1. Sleep. HA. Just kidding. This is something that has been brushed aside.

2. I have worked a lot!

3. Homework. Papers. Reading reading reading. Tests.

4. Stress. That's what's been up in my life.

5. Coffee. Lots of it. And I am not ashamed.

6. Health. Not sure what's really going on. Doctor was fairly inconclusive, but we're just gonna wait and see if it gets better.

7. Rain. Well there has been a lot of rain, but mainly there has been a lot of Sarah not being prepared- no rain coat, hood, or umbrella. So yes, I've been wet a lot this week.

8. Ice cream. Where is it and where can I get more. Did I mention Mom thinks that not consuming dairy (like ALL of my diet) will help me feel better. And I think that sounds like a scenario with Sarah spiraling into a very dark spot in her life. I know what it's like to be without ice cream: for a whole year, and it's miserable.

9. Music. Did you know Spotify offers a discount to students that allows us to have premium Spotify for a very small amount of money everyday. Yes. Music makes my world go round.

10. General busyness: I have discovered that I am never bored. I also have things I can do all the time! It'll slow down sometime I'm sure!

That's all for now. I just wanted y'all to know- I am alive and I do care about this blog. I'm just having to create some priorities which is not so fun and very adultish but alas. Farewell for now!
