The Perfect Bowl of Oatmeal


Today around noon my suitemate Nicolina skipped merrily into my dorm room holding her aqua blue stoneware bowl. It was filled with the most delicisous substance known to dorm inhabitors: Quakers Oats Maple and Brown Sugar instant oatmeal.

It was the most perfect bowl of oatmeal I had ever encountered. It was a sugary masterpiece with the consistency of nimbus clouds floating in a spring breeze.

She savored each bite of her scrumptous breakfast, but she has stated that it was "much too fleeting" and went on to covet some crumbly coffeecake.

Also today I found out that my article in Quinnipiac University's independent paper, Quad News, was quoted in the New York Times. My original article can be found here: http://www.quadnews.net/features/farmville-a-growing-obsession-1.2026801

And here's the link to where they quoted me in the NY Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/29/fashion/29farmville.html.

It was a pretty epic day, my editor texted me very excitedly early this morning with the brilliant news.

Upon ending this post, I would like to share that soon I will own my very own passport, as I plan on traveling to Central America later this year!
