June 27th, 2005 · Comments Off

And here I was hoping that the end of school would make me less busy. But instead I’m having to catch up on all the things I’ve been putting off for school. Including sleep, which I can’t seem to get enough of. I mean, really can’t get enough of. I’m more tired than I’ve been […]
