Snow Day

Today is my last day before flying to London tomorrow, and what happens but a winter storm. I have a snow day today, which means that I literally have all day to prepare as much as I want. How amazing—I’ve been so worried about getting everything done and now I get such a blessing. I just hope that it doesn’t result in my flight getting delayed, but it’s supposed to stop snowing well before then.

My floor is currently littered with potential outfit combinations. I’m trying to find a balance between looking as cute as possible while simultaneously packing as little as possible. We’ll see, but I’m really hoping to avoid checking a bag. Is that unreasonable for a 10-day trip?

In other news, I’ve been highly productive this week (planning to go off the grid for a Europe trip will do that, apparently) and yesterday I applied to eight different English Department awards and five different internships! I’m not sure what will come of them, so I’m banking on the law of large numbers to help me out here. Why aren’t I this productive all of the time? It feels amazing. I’ve yet to decide whether it feels more amazing then lying around doing nothing all day….it’s a close one.
