So this is what it feels like to be a grown up...

Awake. 6:24am. I've already showered, taken cold medicine, and effectively woken up. I'm waiting for my hair to dry so I can straighten it.
I don't usually do mornings like this. I knew today was going to be special though because of Celebrating Student Achievement Day. I can't help but want to look my best, and I knew that was going to require getting up earlier.

What I didn't really realize was how excited/freaking out I am about this. You see I didn't just wake up at 6 and get a move on things. No, no that would be far too normal. I woke up at 3:17am completely convinced it was around 6am and time to get up at at em'. Only I knew it seemed far to dark outside for 6am. That when I checked the clock. Crap. I laid back down and faded in and out of alertness for about 2 hours, before deciding to give it up and just take my shower.

Apparently, this is my new Christmas morning. I guess I'm just excited to make the whole President thing official. I feel so adult like. Up and blogging before my roommate is even awake. On a related note, I wish I could turn on CNN and watch the news and I finish getting ready. That would complete the whole grown-up feeling...actually about 20mins after catching all the same headlines I'd probably turn to saved by the bell, or fresh prince of bell-air. So much for adulthood.

Regardless I'm excited about today. Time to get my hair straightening on.

I wonder if Obama woke up at 3am on the day of his inauguration....
