1.  I put milk and sugar in my coffee.  This is an extreme example of how CRAZY-balls grad school is--when it's too much work to add anything to your coffee...maybe you're crazyballs.
2.  I hoard water.  I caught 3 large buckets of rain water yesterday and it was one of the proudest moments of my day.
3.  I make a lot less garbage.  Which is good because I still have NO idea where it goes.  Nothing has packaging here.  When I go to the market and buy vegetables or any other food thing (tuna is an exception, it comes in a can) they just weigh it out and put it in a sack. Rice, flour, salt, sugar...everything is bought in bulk.  So, the garbage I do have can typically be used for something else (at this point it's mostly plastic bags, people use those to light carvao here).  However, I have noticed that most of the garbage that I can't get rid of otherwise is from the states--drink packages, qtips...so much packaging.
4.  I'm more patient.  I'm getting really good at waiting.
In other news, I finished cleaning my room.  It looks nice now.
