• 13:31 Study study study then dinner party tonight and PRESENTS! One final left and hopefully coffee house, I need to relaaax. #

• 16:27 One paper down, one to go, and then I need to start studying for Philosophy. Three days until home! And coffeehouse, hopefully! #

• 20:23 First night of Hanukkah! Watched the lighting of the menorah on Skype, that is probably somehow sacrilege. Oh well. Could hear my puppies. #

• 09:42 Media class finally DONE. I hope I pass. Two paper editing sessions and I can sleep. Yay! #
• 18:24 They have challah bread and real steak at dinner. Wismer doing something right? Wow #

• 23:24 Finally getting the finals stress, only part of it is fml I hate my job and miss dinner too often boredom. Today my boss took my paper away. #
• 16:22 Hour and a half till dinner. Can I finish four more pages on my paper? Depends on if I get off Twitter. #

College admissions offices make the most fickle suitors. In the invitational emails they send, they're all honey-tongued and tender, exalting in how great I am and how happy I would make them if I applied, they would make me so happy in return, and so on, and so forth. But once the deadline passes, they change their tune amazingly: why haven't they received my application yet? They've granted me an application extension, because they love me so much, but they won't send me another one, oh no, they won't! Did they tell me how great I am yet? No? Then allow them to remind me, in as many loving emails as possible! So, now that I'm so moved, have I applied yet?

Touchy like a spurned, drunken lover. I then do the virtual equivalent of trashing cheap bouquets, and never fail to be horrified when I hear friends mention in passing that they've applied just because the colleges have asked so nicely. Ah well. Such is love.

Current Mood: pessimistic

• 15:56 Probably should have started my CIE paper, but instead I cleaned the room. You can see my desktop now! It's strange! #

• 23:15 Impressing people with my room, King of Prussia epic shopping trip, and then a snowball fight after which I couldn't move my fingers. #

• 01:19 There is something terrible about finishing your 5 page paper early & forgetting you have (surprise!) lots of Philos. reading. Do not want! #

Just popping in to mention my six-year-old brother, Josh, and the story I just read to him. I hastily chose it out of my full collection of the Grimms' brothers' fairy tales, as I looked for something short and possibly full of fuzzy animals. I suppose I should've seen this coming:

Me: "but he let fall the bucket in the well, and himself after it, and as he could not get out again, he was obliged to be drowned." The end.
Josh: That's it?
Me: ... yeah, that's it. Err. THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS--
Josh: **ambles off to watch TV**
Me: ;_;

IN MY DEFENSE, the story was titled, "The Mouse, the Bird, and the Sausage." Deceptive like ninja, yes or yes?

• 14:58 @spiffykt Hug from very far away~! Also, I apologize for Chris being an asshole. He does that. #

• 23:29 @spiffykt if you search you can still find it. I did that instead of researching for Tolkien. fugivitus instead in the link & it works. #
• 15:12 I was hopeful for NY after yesterday's news about DC, but I guess even the state full of awesome musicals has to fail me. #NYmarriagedebate #
