one of my dearest of friends has joined the blogging community. i couldn't be more excited for the pearls of wisdom coming from this wonderful girl. . . i give you. . . 

        ALLISON WILLIAMS.  

with spring comes warm weather.
we may not be having much of it right now, but it is just around the corner. i am so excited for these next couple months. this spring quarter will be fairly easy. . . spanish 103, math and art history. . . it will keep me busy but when the sun is shining and it's warm outside, who can complain? anyway, there are a lot of enjoyable things to come . . . birthdays, weddings, vacations in hawaii, day trips to the beach, relaxation.

there are good things coming.

i am literally going insane. i wake up every morning to a kitchen full of these little pests.
mind you, i am a fairly clean person . . . alice taught me to keep things tidy. apparently, these little guys don't care how clean things are, they are in search of something. needless to say, i am going crazy. i waste all my cleaning products drowning them in little pools of cleaner and wiping them up followed by flushing them down the toilet. when it first began, i'd feel really mean and put honey all over the counter and watch them get stuck. i.am.over.it.

GET THEM OUT OF HERE!!!!
i called the landlord and he's sending someone to take care of them.
it will give me some peace of mind. . .

UPDATE:

upon writing this post, i got so upset and disgusted that i marched myself down to the local grocer, bought 5 ant traps and set them up very strategically. for the next few hours, i watched the small scavengers bring hoards of poison back to their colonies. oh what poor suckers. then, this morning, much to my surprise, the ants were already dwindling in force. there were a few stragglers who must have been slacking off yesterday while everyone else was getting their work done. anyway, i think it worked. and i am happy.

just wanted to share a little of what's going on in this life of mine. clearly, not too much.

it's my spring break this week, but i've been nannying everyday so it really doesn't seem like much of a break. i am not trying to complain, because i'll welcome any break from homework. anyway, this weekend the jovich family is heading north (way north. . .) to birch bay. on friday afternoon, evan and i will be making a three hour drive north. it will be long, but worth it. we're looking forward to going away for the weekend and just relaxing together.
