i keep meaning to post but then i keep forgetting. and i dont know what to say either. basically, finals suck, ashleigh is back (and i thoroughly enjoyed hearing your voice today for the first time in months), im again shortchanging the sleep thing, and break begins saturday. i think im sticking around BU until the 22nd or so, or whenever they kick me out...technically i can even stay here over christmas and new years if i wanted to, but the guest policy is SUCH a bitch and i dont know how to get around it, even if any of you guys wanted to come over. but like.....what reason do i have to go home? nothing at all....all im doing this winter break is getting my wisdom teeth out, and we all know how much i am looking forward to that (*note to all you guys - the doom day is 1/3/06 so you better all come take care of me...)

 

on another note, paul is in my shower right now and christine says im a loser for not taking advantage of the situation. christine, what am i going to do with you? *sigh*

an awesome weekend, although i have been extremely unproductive. but, i did write half of a paper, and i found out my other paper due thursday is about 4 pages shorter than i thought it had to be (=sigh of relief). well, this semester has basically been a blur, and it didnt even occur to me that break is in uhhh 12 and a half days, give or take a few hours. for some reason, this semester seemed so daunting in terms of what needed to be accomplished, but taking it week by week has made things go so fast. i mean of course i've been thinking long term for the semester, but i honestly can't even believe it's over within a matter of days. next semester will be equally difficult to this one, if not more difficult in terms of the fact that one more of my classes will not rely on small assignments like problem sets and quizzes but rather just four tests that make up the entire grade. but, i know at least one close friend in three of my four classes...marine bio is the only one where i dont have a friend...we'll see how that class turns out. as far as everything else goes...i still have to yell at my suitemates for being so gross that the dishes haven't been washed since before thanksgiving break....we'll see when they get around to that.

 

does anyone else find it particularly weird that CBS would use "harder to breathe" by maroon5 in the middle of a patriots game? because...i found it rather....disappointing. (and now the song is stuck in my head too.)

 

on another winsor note, leah rappaport facebooked me today... and hilary thrasher as well, for those of you who remember her. and another girl who i havent talked to since fourth grade, well let's just say it's a small, small world. i also am proud to say that i'm friends with someone named Fritz on the facebook - is that not the coolest name ever? also met an octavio...what is it with people and awesome names?

 

anyways. that's whats up in my world right now. i'll work on the whole webshots thing at some point...but for now, it's time to finish spanish paper #1 so i can do #2 tomorrow...and be DONE with the class forever on thursday, as well as my music class, after two quizzes. TWO classes over this thursday, how awesome is that....then it's just bio and physics to worry about, and freedom on the 17th! everyone i know here is done on the 19th or 20th...the only person who is done on the 17th is going home right after her final...so someone better come entertain me, because i'm not going home until i have to..what is there to get done at home besides have my wisdom teeth out?!!? alright, enough out of me...my longest update in a while, enjoy (:

it's saturday night at 11:04 pm, during thanksgiving break, and i'm uhh...writing a paper. 3 sentences down, 7 pages to go!!
on the bright side, tonight's dinner was one of the best in a while :)

its strange how it doesnt feel like its thanksgiving break. i mean this break was well needed, but given the fact that i have three papers coming up shortly followed by three final exams, i cant even believe the semester has gotten this far. im pretty happy with this year as of right now...in almost every aspect, academically being the downer of course. even in terms of other aspects, i never imagined that things would be the way they are, and it makes me feel really comfortable with the way things are.


in other news, here are some fun (?) things that my parents have said to me today since i got home -
mom: "hey, youre not fat anymore" (something to that effect)
dad: "hey....interesting hair youve got there..." (incase i didnt tell any of you, i now have side bangs sort of. looks decent though.)
gotta love home...

this is christine and i've hacked into monica's livejournal.
actually, thats not true.
i wish i were that cool.
instead, i've actually knocked her out and she's passed out in the chair and im writing in here to ask anyone if they've got any good ideas to take over the world...
so you'd better damn comment, or i'll kill her.
*threatens*

tuesday 11/15 - bio test
tuesday 11/15 - music 'quiz'
(wednesday 11/16 - physics lab)
thursday 11/17 - spanish test
(thursday 11/17 - physics pset)
(friday 11/18 - bio lab)

i'll see everyone on friday at 3pm.

if only schoolwork didnt take over my life. today was one of the best days of my LIFE, and now i have to spend the rest of it studying physics for a test and bio for a quiz. well, i went to see NIN tonight, and although they werent as good as i was told, i still had fun nonetheless, and i enjoyed my company as well. its just nice to have been able to hang out on a random ass tuesday night. cause when i look back on today somewhere down the line, as much as im going to remember that it sucked having to come back and study for a few hours and make up for my fun, ill remember how great it was to just push off everything and enjoy myself. there was a period of about 2-3 hours where i didnt even THINK about work, or the tests this week and the three next week. although this semester is ridiculously difficult and next will be worse, since i am declaring my double major instead of one major and one minor, i have found my niche, and i love it. i love my friends, i love the people who i hang out with and talk to, and except for the whole not-talking-much-to-my-sister bit, everything is going surprisingly well. granted, i could work harder in my classes (ie i should be doing physics right now), but for once, in almost every aspect of my life, i am happy.

where has everyone gone?

sometimes i think, you know, this is great. i'm having a lot of fun and doing pretty well for myself, and this is supposed to be the best time of my life. then i realize that this is my easiest week, because i only have two labs and one problem set due, and only one spanish book and only one 50 (roughly) page bio chapter to read, and only one hour of music listening to do. and then i think to myself, wait a minute, this blows!!!!!

 

now when you break yourself down
and go to this place
you give yourself the reason
to get off your case
and when you break it down yeah
and see through this shit
you give yourself the reason
to live through this
