I. Do you want to find 700+ free stuff on the internet? Maybe? Well, don't worry, I answered the question for you {and I said 'yes', by the way}, and there is something for creatives, intellectuals, readers, bored people, linguists, and anybody else that you can possibly think of. Check out the list which was written by Kevin de Asis on Medium.
II. I am a student {Senior year - woooh!}, and I love to travel. The problem with being both is that I am broke. But (and that's a huge BUT), Sabina from Girl vs. Globe wrote a post about how you can travel as a student. She visited 17 countries during her final year in university, which is seriously impressive.
Books that I read:
I. After You by Jojo Moyes | I rented this book from the library. My friend let me read the first book (Me Before You), and I fell in love with it, so I wanted to also read the second one, which was recently published. The first book made me extremely sad, so I am waiting to see how this book makes me feel.
Recipes that I made:
I. Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Zucchini | The sandwiches turned out pretty good. The next time that I make it, I plan to use a different type of bread {I used white bread instead of the recommended French Bread} because mine kept falling apart and the cheese was falling through the holes created by smearing butter on it. Other than that, I love this recipe! I also did not use marinara sauce; I used regular tomato sauce. As for the Zucchini, I have become addicted to it since studying abroad in Germany. My first host mom used to always make it, and yum yum yum. I poured salt on it and let it sit for about 10 minutes {recommended 30 minutes} before rinsing it off and cooking it in olive oil. It was delicious.
I made Zucchini again on Wednesday night, and I did the exact same thing except for adding a bit of salt again after rinsing as well as pepper. That turned out amazing. Oh! And I also cut it up better than I did the day before, which is how I like it (two-sided versus one side and skin).
Music:
I. "Comfortable" by K Camp
II. "Love Yourself" by Justin Bieber
III. All of the High School Musical albums. I don't know why I am so addicted to it, but I am, and it won't stop! WHAT TIME IS IT?
IV. "Ich Bin Ich" by Glasperlenspiel
TV Shows & Movies:
I. Teen Wolf | I really missed this show while in Germany. Although the series started getting quite annoying after a lot of the main characters left (Allison, Derek, the twins, Isaac), I never got to the point where I completely stopped watching the show. I still love the other characters, no matter how schieße the show becomes. Plus *SPOILER* Crystal Reed is coming back!
II. I have a lot of shows to catch up. A lot of the new seasons will be starting soon (if they haven't already started), so I want to be ready. These shows include Pretty Little Liars, The Fosters, Supernatural, Bones, and Chasing Life.
III. While I really need {not want - this is crucial} to catch up on all of the aforementioned shows, I became really addicted to Netflix while I was in Germany and have a lot of series on there to continue. The main one that I am addicted to right now is Vampire Diaries. I was really against watching it, but my host sister got me addicted.
IV. On the subject of Netflix, I can watch Bones, F.R.I.E.N.D.S., and Law & Order; SVU again! Guys! Guys! Guys! This makes me really happy. When I went to Germany and I saw that I could not watch them anymore, I was really disappointed. But it was okay because it gave me a lot of time to finish Supernatural (up to season 9), watch a lot of movies, rewatch the entire How I Met Your Mother series (possibly 4 times), and start Vampire Diaries.
Other Thoughts:
I. I have to start driving again next week. I am really anxious about doing so because I have not driven since July 2015. Plus, it will be even worse because the weather is really bad now. {And we all complained about not having a winter. Next time, I am knocking on wood.}
II. I am really enjoying having a cat. He is so playful and silly. We adopted Tiger last June, when he was about a month old. I went away to Germany when he was still so tiny, and when I came back, he was huge. I forgot how quickly cats grow. It seemed a little like Tiger forgot about me {he did not want me to touch him}, but he is getting used to me again.
III. I was accepted to the University of Central Florida, which is my number one choice! Last year, I was initially deferred, so to see the change really made me happy. This acceptance now means that I have been accepted to all of the colleges that I have applied for. Now, let's talk money...
