Post #1
A little bit of me...
I grew up a few miles Southeast of Issaquah, WA (Which is about 20 miles East of Seattle) on Tiger Mountain. (Mirrormont was the fancy neighborhood nearby. I didn't technically live inside of it, but if I tag where I actually lived, the flag blocks all of the nearby town names and it looks like I REALLY grew up in the middle of nowhere).

A Tuesday in Teal's Life...
Tuesdays are my favorite weekday this quarter. I have a long day, but it's leisurely. The day begins with an alarm ringing. I eat, get myself together, and bike to the yoga studio close to my apartment. I just started going again after a year long hiatus because of financial reasons -- but there's a great studio with $5 drop-in classes right near downtown! When I get home, I have a few hours to shower, read, do homework, eat lunch, make dinner, and catch up with friends. Usually only a few of these happen, but on a good day I can do it all! Then, realizing I've sat around too long, I hop on my bicycle once more and head to campus.
I spend the afternoon and part of the evening at school. I pour energy and passion in to my studies and try to get as much of my work done as possible while I'm on campus. I get back on my bike and head home. I arrive home from campus shortly before my boyfriend, Jeff, arrives home from Edison. The dinner I made before lunch is piping hot and ready to serve from the crockpot (I learned last year that crockpots are a busy student's best friend!). If I don't make dinner ahead of time, then I usually mope around wondering what I want to eat, get cranky, and eventually eat something -- not as pretty.
The rest of my evening is either spent studying, knitting (I'm a torso and a sleeve into my first sweater ever -- just one more sleeve and the yoke left!) watching a film, reading a book, or spending time with friends. Almost invariably there is tea and dark chocolate involved at some point. If I'm really lucky there's also some coconut milk ice cream thrown in. Then, I wind down, set the alarm again, and awake on Wednesday.
