And all that jazz...

I found out that I can sleep under a variety of different circumstances, including my roommate blow drying her hair ten feet away from me. This morning, my alarm went off a little early, so I reset it and went back to sleep, but before I did, I told Callie she could go ahead and dry her hair in the room instead of the bathroom; it wouldn't bother me. So she did, and I lay back down, and the next thing I remember is my alarm going off again. So, I can sleep with noise (non-annoying noises, that is). This further supports my hypothesis that I was made for sleep.

In other news, I have a project due in my tutoring class this Wednesday. The topic is my growth as a tutor, and I could either write a paper or do some creative project. Guess which one I chose! So, it has to be creative, and by sheer luck alone, I had my charcoal pencils with me, so I decided to sketch a few creative illustrations of several tutoring situations that demonstrate my growth this year. Where does the creativity come in, you may ask? The sketches are a bit abstract - more symbolic than anything else. Instead of a library and an organic chemistry notebook, I drew a labyrinth, a huge, imposing, difficult, and endless labyrinth with these huge doors with the stark words "Organic Chemistry" engraved upon them. On the stones of the labyrinth, I drew reaction arrows with chemical reagents, like HCl and 80 degrees Celsius, written above the arrows. There are some other creative things, but those are the two main ones. I just have to finish them...

I'm watching (listening) to The Hunchback of Notre Dame currently, one of my favorite Disney films. There are so many good ones! Right now, my all-time favorite is Beauty and the Beast, but I love many more. Mulan, Tarzan, Pocahontas, Lady and the Tramp, Hercules, The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, and Aladdin. I'm forgetting half a dozen, but I can't remember any more.
