It's the little things in life....

Right now I really should be working on an assignment that I have due next week, but a little voice keeps saying, “don’t worry you have time, its not due until next week.” I wish I could easily squash this voice and get to work on my assignment. Instead, I decided that I have not been blogging enough lately and I would write a totally worthless post for all of you back home. I should not say worthless because I found enjoyment over today’s choice of topic, but all of you might find it hard to relate or more accurately put, care about what I am writing.

Don’t you just love when little things make you happy? I do, and little things like office supplies always creates excitement and happiness for me. For as long as I can remember I have loved having/playing with office supplies. The best time of year for me was shopping for back to school items; not clothes like a normal girl, but school supplies. We would go, buy all of the new things, and then I would sit for hours arranging and rearranging all my new things in my new backpack. Oh what simple bliss that was.

Yesterday, I was actually working on school work when I decided I didn’t have everything I needed to help me out this semester. I have a bunch of papers for each class (course outlines, readings, etc.) that I didn’t have anywhere to put or a way to keep them nice. For the past three weeks I have been stuffing them inside my spirals and everyday the edges of those papers get more and more frayed and torn. Not happy about that. I decided I need folders for each class for my papers to be kept nice.

Adam and I went to the grocery store to do our weekly run, and there I found not only the folders I needed, but they were color coordinating to the spirals I had. Jackpot! The only color they didn’t have to perfectly match my spirals was green, so I was forced to get a clear one for that class. So now I would have to say I am totally set to make straight A’s this semester. Like I said, it’s the little things in life.

P.S. I will add that Adam already knows what a total nerd I am and my excitement over my purchase last night only confirmed what he already knew; that I am a huge dork.
