Reading break is anything but

Happy days are here again!  DAVIDsTEA's location on fourth ave is open again!  Yes, this is actually very exciting news for me, as their tea is my personal indulgence and it was rather difficult to justify going from my house to Oakride mall just for tea.  I'm not saying it was impossible, because I made that trip at least 5 times over the past month, but still, you know, more of a hassle than walking a block.

The 'A' is Oakridge; the green dot is my house and the blue dot is where DAVIDsTEA is...
It reopened the weekend that my reading break ended, and while I was there getting tea and saying hello to several familiar faces, I realized just how antisocial I had been over my reading break.  The first couple days went exactly as planned: do my readings for linguistics, write blog posts, pamper self with extra sleep.  Then all of a sudden I realized that excluding when I had to be at work, during the nine days I had off (both weekends included) there were 4 days where the only time I left the house was to go to the gym.

Somewhere during that week, my mindset went full-hermit mode.  I pretty much stopped doing whatever other homework I had planned on doing, stopped socializing, stopped, well, pretty much everything.  I was so anti-social that I couldn't even sit down and write a blog post, and that's not even something that's technically social.

Not only that, but the week off has thrown my whole schedule out of whack.  My sleeping pattern's off, and my motivation to do my homework right when I get back from school needs to be built back up.  Ugh...

Anyhow, this isn't really a proper blog entry, it's more of me acknowledging my hermit-ness in writing so that I can motivate myself to return to my pre-reading week self.  I'm sure that going to school with a nice hot cup of Nepal Black Tea tomorrow will only help.  Also, tomorrow I will post an entry that, ecluded  couple photos, has been finished for nearly a week.  See, I was so unmotivated that I couldn't even hit the 'Publish' button all week...  I will leave you with a photo of Cee Lo Green and his cat:

If you read all the way through this rambling, you deserve to see this picture.
