Laziness

22 Jun Chicken Pie in Pea Soup with Ketchup Squirt

Why oh why have I disappeared for a while? One word: laziness. School started and has been rather tiring with endless lectures…and my insomnia hasn’t resolved itself so I’m still sleeping at 2-3 most day (5 am last night actually…) đŸ˜¦ I’ve also been up to a lot these past 2 weeks!
