I've been in the same routine since the middle of January. It's kind of getting me down. Not like depressed, just bored. I don't have any friends at college any more, and I've mostly just been talking in my classes, and not a whole lot at that. In fact, I speak more Spanish these days than English. Sad, no? I've even taken to calling my mom in hopes that she'll start a real conversation. But I just got a roommate yesterday so now I have someone to talk to. She seems nice enough.

Aside from my month and a half long silent solitude, I've been trying to stay away from the Internet. I mean, yeah, I still get on (obviously), just not as much. It's a rather unproductive activity, to sit in front of a computer all the time. I'm not much on TV either, I just have my few shows, but the TV usually stays on, and I've been watching BTVS season four and trying to read some books. Since I have been taking up these entertainments, I've felt kind of bad for not doing anything really useful, and now I'm ahead on my homework, which is good, but I feel like I need to keep at it and spend all my afternoons with my nose in a book or my fingers glued to the keyboard. *shrug* I'm not really that dedicated, though.

Kind of on that line: The other day on Perez, he posted something about how much time the average American spends watching TV in a week or year, and he was like, "That's FIVE hours a day!!! How can anyone spend five hours watching TV every day? Spending five hours on the Internet is better!" WTF, mate? It's so not. Sometimes he's crazy. 

Lastly, does anyone else admire Michelle Obama as much as me? She's seems like a really great woman. I'd love to meet her.
