I HATE MOSQUITOS

with a passion. I am talking about a genuine and utter and deep disdain for them. My legs have exactly 12 mosquito bites on them, thanks to the $7 hostel that I stayed at in Cambodia. I slept for about 4 hours on that bed. And woke up as the main entree for those disgusting little suckers.

In class, they itch. I walk, and they itch. All they do is itch. And it's weird because normally mosquitos don't like my blood. But these Cambodian mosquitos are willing to get any meal they can, I guess. Which is just my luck.

Did I mention that I have found a new sugary addiction? Being frozen yogurt deprived has led me to pursue other forms of temporary unhealthy obsessions. At home, it ranges from mom's homemade granola to frozen yogurt. In Singapore, it has ranged from pineapple (currently still ongoing), Hershey's chocolate kisses, McDonald's vanilla cones, and the one I am currently suffering from: chocolate covered raisins. Is that gross? I feel like not many people would like them. But for some reason I find them delicious. I am eating/popping them into my mouth like it's no one's business. Seriously, this cannot be healthy. And of course, I am supposed to be doing some homework but my mind is just out of control right now. Completely unable to concentrate. And I find the best cure is to just write (and eat vast quantities of chocolate raisins), even if it is about something as insignificant as chocolate covered raisins. But isn't it the little insignificances of life that make it interesting? I would say so.

MOVING ON: I was hoping to get to talk to Manny today. But that was a fail. I am truly missing that boy so much. There's just something about him...
But I talked with some of my friends back home today. Heather updated me on her life (her new military boyfriend)...and Brieanna's life (her new acting career)... Jessica updated me on her life (new Italian boyfriend who she says is an "angel") Also talked to Ronnie, who is in a similar situation (in terms of significant others). At this rate, I'm going to find out that Staci got a boyfriend too. So basically everyone is either falling in love or becoming famous, all while I am on the other side of the world. That would happen.

But it IS almost spring time at home though, right? (In Singapore, it's summer all year round, so I am unaccustomed to the term "seasons") So I guess love is in the air..and meanwhile, I am in southeast asia, where apparently the only thing in the air are bloodthirsty mosquitos.
