Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens...

I'm stuck in a strange spot between undergrad and grad school. I'm hopefully going to start working at the BB again soon, but in my downtime I've been watching a whole lot of Bravo and searching the Internet for some new found loves.

1) http://www.supercook.com/
This website has introduced me to some of my new favorite meals. Instead of a typical recipe website where you find the perfect recipe and go to the grocery store and buy the ingredients that you need. However, on this website, you type in the ingredients that you already have in your kitchen, and it brings up recipes with only those ingredients in them. Seriously, genius.

My stomach has decided to hate me lately and I've been taking entirely too much pain medicine. I can't exactly afford to drive down to Grand Rapids for acupuncture, so I've been trying to deal with the pain on my own. Enter: Traditional Medicinals Peppermint Tea. While I've never been a huge tea drinker, for some reason this is my nightly bff lately.
(This has nothing to do with Bravo or the Internet, obv.)

I finally got a chance to upload more photos from the best vacation of my life. I'd pretty much give anything to be back there right about now. I'm hopefully meeting up with Alyssa soon to get her photos from the trip.

If you spend too much time on this site, you'll get a headache. But seriously...this is crazy. The sound clips mess with your mind...it hurts.

The only problem that I have with this site is that I can't decide if the best or worst texts are my favorite.

Let's hope I get a job soon so that I don't spend all my free time online anymore..ugh.

Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnnn...

Why couldn't the GRE have been over 90's Nickelodeon shows, or names of Rihanna songs, or even types of dogs. No, the GRE is much harder than any of those. Much, much harder. If I were given an analogy such as :Ren::Stimpy, I would've obviously known :Keenan::Kel, or the antonym of Whomps is nothing because it's made up. No, I was given stupid words. Stupid words and long passages. Ugh...but one good thing...it's over.

I wanna be sedated..for real.

Dear GRE,

I hate your stinking guts. You make me vomit. You're scum between my toes!

Love,
Whitney

(Looking forward to having my life back after the GRE on Monday...assuming I survive.)
