You never really realize how much of a wreck your house is until you've been instructed to clean it. I mean, yeah, only one half of my bed could be comfortably reclined on because the other half was a mountain of my Alaska-trip clothes that I didn't bother washing as soon as I got home, but whatever.

Speaking of Alaska, holy shit was that fun. Like, I never thought it WOULDN'T be, but it kind of went and shattered my fun expectations like two hundred times over. Only barely seeing my mom once a day was just an added bonus on top of an already awesome vacation (although I will say that I somehow managed to always get glared at or worse during those scarce moments).

So basically it was a 7 day Alaskan cruise, and I was sharing a stateroom with Poki, easily one of my most entertaining, outspoken, and just plain awesome friends. Because I don't actually FEEL like cleaning anything, I'll write up a little day-by-day thing, more for my amusement than anything else. But first, some profiles:

The end. Oh God, that took two hours. I have so much cleaning to do. But I figured I'd document that, if only for my own memory. Also, there are pictures. Actually, we have like a thousand more but Poki took them all and I just stole them from the small batch she put up on facebook.

Blaaaaah, senior year starts in three and a half days. Part of me is super excited and the rest of me is beyond scared because I'm doing SO EFFING MUCH. Yeah, just this week I have three meetings: Folio, Newspaper, and Senior Leader stuff. Throw college on top of that and I'm going to basically die. On a fire. Awesomesauce.

Okay, cleaning time. And I apologize for the headache I just gave anyone.
