Vocab Words bear with me

I don't like the pressure of having a title there. Maybe I just wanna write sometimes, without having to label everything!

Today I am over my compunction* for being late all week. I woke up early enough, for once. I lay in bed wondering just what I'd written in my application essays for the ADGT Program. (I'm not going to spell it out for you again, so please read a previous blog and get familiar with the program.)

So, curiosity killed the cat. Or the sleep, in this case.

I struggled out of bed into the freezing cold and checked the computer. I reread all my essays (FIVE) and hmm.. not bad, if I don't say so myself. Much accolade deserved for my mom, who helped me edit (very patiently, too.)

Then I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone.

So I went to the bank and deposited my check and arrived -- precisely at 8 AM!! Woo-hoo!

Having digested some new vocab words*, I find myself eager to put them to use and imprint them firmly in my brain for everyday usage.

Looking back at meeting Gabriel last night, I think I was looking for some conciliatory* gestures, which didn't happen, and maybe shouldn't have been expected as there was no distrust or hostility with which to overcome*--(reworded definition.) Perhaps my quixotic romanticism is to blame. At least I am not diabolical. I evince no blandishness whatsoever ever, which I think may be a way to say I suck at flirting...er, no..."coaxing with flattery." Yucko. That just ain't me. I can only summarize the encounter thusly: a general bonhomie with a boon of no brusqueness on either side.

I hate that the words are alphabetized. I need to screw that up real fast so it feels more na-tur-al.

I will add a title now, just thought of one.
