OKAY POSTAL SERVICE. WE NEED TO GET OUR CRAP TOGETHER.

Okay. First of all. You don't give me my stuff for long periods of time, and then, when I FINALLY  get it, it is "DAMAGEDS IN HANDLING BY THE POSTAL SERVICE".

Look at this poor letter from Tina!!!! 

I also got letters from Ariel (yours took forever!), Jena, Nichole (THE BRACELET IS LOVELY), and my church! YAY MAIL. Now to write all of you back!

Much love,

Skylar

THE POSTAL SERVICE HAS FAILED ME.

So I got FIVE LETTERS yesterday. Not because five people decided to send me letters on the same day, but because THE MAIL SUCKS. One was postmarked September 26th. One was from October 2nd. One wasn't postmarked at all (not sure how that happened). SO MUCH DISAPPOINTMENT. I have probably given the post office more money in the last two months than most people my age have in their entire life, and you have FAILED ME. Anyway, Jena, Miranda, Maggie, Anna, William, your letters are on the way. Sorry for the lateness. Blame the mailman.

Be Warned.

I haven't done a blog post in a while, so this is going to be a long one.

PART ONE: The National Zoo

So guys. I went to the zoo. It was amazing. Even though I couldn't see the pandas. But still. Awesome. Because it's the zoo. EXCEPT FOR THE PART WHERE THEY DON'T HAVE GIRAFFES!! I mean, what kind of zoo doesn't have giraffes? Lion+Flamingos+Zebra+GIRAFFE+Monkey= ZOO. Therefore, the National Zoo is not a zoo, but an animal looking place. Stupid National Animal Looking Place. Oh, and if you eat there, get a kids meal. Plenty of food, three dollars cheaper.

PART TWO. BUT REALLY PART ONE AND A HALF:  Baby Panda.

OMG GUYS SO I WENT TO THE ZOO SATURDAY AND ON SUNDAY A BABY PANDA WAS BORN.  Yup. It happened. And in the spring, when they reopen the panda house, I will go see said baby panda and he will be adorable. And I will take lots of pictures, and it will be wonderful.

PART THREE. OR TWO. SINCE IT'S COMPLETELY UNRELATED FROM THE FIRST TWO. WHICH WERE RELATED: Fat.

I'm getting fat. That is all.

PART FOUR. OR THREE FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE KEEPING COUNT: Archaeology

I love my archaeology class. Like really alot. Laura and I get there early every Tuesday and Thursday to get good seats, and then we kinda fangirl over Dr. Cline. He's like a dorky rockstar. I love him so much. He's soooo cool. Oh, and next summer (not this coming summer but next summer) I may get to go on a dig to Meggido. That's right. The one in Israel. Be excited. I'll bring you sand.

PART FIVE: Frozen Tundra that is Washington

I need a coat. I am taking suggestions. Send me links or whatnot. Especially those of you who have lived in cold places. Because I'm getting to the part where I'm going to freeze to death.

PART SIX: Mail

I love mail. Like really. I think I send 5-7 letters a week. I love getting mail and I love writing letters. So write me letters. The only thing better than getting a letter is getting a package. LOVE MAIL SO MUCH.

PART SEVEN: Sick

My roommate is sick but she won't admit it. I hope you're reading this, Alina, you sick child.

PART EIGHT: New Friends

I love my dorm. Like really. I know amazing people and they make me happy. I know some not very amazing people, but I don't talk to them so it's not a big deal. LOVE YOU ALL.

PART NINE: Messy

I need to clean my room. Thank you, blog post to help me procrastinate. I appreciate it. At least I've done all my homework.

PART TEN: Flowers

My flowers are dying, but I don't want to get rid of them because then I won't have flowers. But they're dying. It's so sad.

PART ELEVEN: Piss off Tina

I wanted to end on an odd number. Mostly to upset Crystina. Love you <3 But partly because I like odd numbers. They're so much better than even ones.
