Just make lemon popsicles

It's here... the Snowpacalypse...sort of.  More like that is back home ( a foot of snow in Oklahoma, yep), meanwhile here we have a block of ice.  Which means one thing:
Ok, maybe more than one thing, but still, this has been stuck in my head for weeks.  Still, the saying goes, "When life gives you lemons, just make lemonade" but what if my lemons look like this:
Despite my lemons being a little...frostbitten...this week has been pretty productive. 
1. Homework is actually getting accomplished
2. I am slowly but surely getting my unpacking done
3. My Netflix instant que is slowly diminishing
4. I am working on being graceful and perfecting my ice-dancing routine

Not too shabby, eh?

A tumbleweed in the wind

I have decided that I am not good at being in one place, which really doesn't work with me since because I don't handle change very well, but at the same time I love it when things are constantly changing, as the norm.  Odd?  I think so.  Since the beginning of school I have moved every 4 months, or less.  Here is the run-down: Dorm, Home, Dorm, Condo, Home, Condo again, Home, Spain, Home, Apartment...Go me.  And, today, my last roommate kicked me out.  Why?  Because I have plans for the summer that don't include paying rent.  Wonderful.  So now I am trapped paying rent unless I get a sublet...prayer, please.  And I am running out of names to call my new residence.  Technically, it is a condo, but I already lived in one of those.  Maybe it could be my "pad" or my "hizzhouse" of even my "hobbit hole", for now I will settle on "my place" because it will be mine.  But a cooler title is definitely a work in progress.

 On another note, moving is great because:
1.  I realize how greatly I am loved by my friends, and what they will do for a pizza.
2. I get to explore a new area, which is almost like traveling.
3. REDECORATING...pier one, here I come!  Though, now with the stuff that I have accumulated somehow I have to make black and brown match...which is basically the only fashion rule that I actually follow.

So what do I say, bring on the change, but with lots of help!
