Can't I just copy and paste?

I've been feeling kind of lazy lately and taking way too many naps. I feel guilty, but at the same time I realize that I don't have a whole lot to do. I have managed to poke around graduate school webpages, read the princeton review's "how to prepare for the GRE Literature Subject test," and send out a mass email to my family members. Now I need to write a mass email for my friends. It wouldn't be that much different, but maybe funnier. The unrated version, or something.
I paid rent today. Next week I have to pay my uni fees. That's nearly 400 euros to pay all together in under a week. And Fulbright isn't paying me yet. Sigh.
I was window shopping at H&M today, and while standing near the Up escalator, I witnessed one of their employees fall. It's true what they say, when you fall on the Up escalator you just keep falling and falling...it was really scary actually, and the woman had to be taken to the hospital, but it was really remarkable how long she fell before they turned the escalator off...she only made it halfway down, but she tumbled for like, a whole minute. It was crazy. Kinda like watching someone fall in slow motion.
Tomorrow I am taking a trip up north for the weekend, to visit Jack in Stralsund. It should either be really fun or really boring. He suggested that I bring some vegetarian food, so I made a really tasty homemade spaghetti sauce tonight.
Also, just so you all know, tomorrow is international hug a vegetarian day. So, hug a vegetarian. We will appreciate it.

that's all. i guess. there is so much more to say, and i have so little desire to say it. It's past 1 am and i honestly can't recall the last time i was awake this late.
