let the sun shine
so, i guess i haven't written since...mardi gras? can that be correct? well i guess so. currently i'm avoiding calculus studying in the hopes that it will seep into my brain by way of osmosis. I listened to Joanna's radio show from Bowdoin last night and it made me so happy because I missed her and sky and spencer and the katie and robin and priscilla and everyone else. anyway, i'm going into my last two weeks of school before finals and it makes me sad every time i think about going home. i really love new orleans(while tulan does have its problems) and i hate to leave it. last night my friend jon from camp invited me to his AEPi formal. I was going to stay in New orleans after my finals for a week and half because my sister is graduating this year and my parents and brother are flying in the 20th. however I will now finish my finals on the 10th of may, party, pack up, and say goodbye to everyone and then fly to ohio to stay with jon for 4 days. then iwill come back and stay in the empty dorm. dave will be here though and that makes things all the better. he's probably my best guy friend here and he'll be staying at his sister's house off campus that week. incidentally the house that I was almost giong to live in with him next year although those plans were slightly deterred. So i am making a list of things to do while i'm in new orleans..alone-ish...and i've come up with a few crazy ideas
1.i will go to the french quarter during the day! (and not drunk)
2.i will go to the civil war confederacy museum because it's supposed to be crazy and seriously politically incorrect...but hey it's a part of history and would be interesting to see
3.i will go back to cafe du monde and have a bite to eat, a beignet or two?
4.i will look around storyville...this has to be a two person journey since it's basically one of new orleans' red light districts and i don't want to be propositioned or somehow pulled into it. possibly a male escort(if you'll excuse the expression) would be a good idea for that outing.
5. i will take pictures all around the city so i can look at them every day and remember how beautiful St. Charles is and how much i really do love the oak trees and audubon park and the huge houses.
6.i will go back to the aquarium and zoo and get my internship/work applications for next year so i can be prepared and play with animals during my free time...of which i'm now predicting there to be very little of
i chose my courses for next semester and i'm so excited because i've finished all of my general req's so i can declare my major next fall..if i only knew which one to declare. currently i'm leaning towards environmental biology and conservation with a minor in english or latin american studies. yea it's crazy but it works for what i want to do i guess...except it leaves out animals pretty entirely. tulane doesn't really have an animal studies or zoology department. which is i guess *sigh* what grad school is for. ihate to think about going into debt at the ripe ole age of 19 but here we go!anyway we shall see. so i'm taking second year hebrew(bleh but i'm almost done then i can switch to lovely spanish again--i'm taking a summer school course at ucla to bump me into spanish 300 level next year), then international relations from my sister's favorite professor here, prob and stat(hey i have to at least it's not calc 2), intro to poetry with an intensive writing section(teehee) and lastly and clearly what will be the bane of my existence....chem with a chem lab. yes ladies and gentlemen i am entering the world of chem again..and i will start hating life again very shortly. luckily my soon-to-be roommate jackie took chem 1 n 2 this year and she's saving her notes for me. she's taking o-chem next fall which i may have to take as well but at leat i don't have to go first! anyway i really really need to study for calc so i don't fail and have to take that next year also. until next time it is sunny outside, everything is green, and i'm wishing to be sitting in audubon staring up at the oak trees...maybe tomorrow.
