Long overdue update on my life....
I'm going to try and make this a concise update on the happenings of my life since my last update... which was some time ago, as I remember.
School is going to be crazy this semester. In the first week back, I already had to immerse myself in the inundation of work that was poured upon me. It's ok, though. At the pace I've been working, I've actually gotten most of it done days in advance, so if I ever need down time, I can have it. I have all of my homework up until Monday, finished, and most of the stuff for Tuesday... and I literally have been working my ass off, [and since when does that happen?]. My honors 210 course is going to kill me, I swear. Honors 298... oh yeah babe. I'm excited. The two professors that teach it are my favs... they're not easy, but they're a riot, and their work is always "meaningful" in some sense. Osteology is going to be fun but difficult. We already started studying bone biology and working with real human skulls [!?]. Imperial Russian/Soviet history will be fun-- Steven takes it with me, which is nice. German isn't going to be too difficult, but the lady doesn't speak English in class, which makes for a lot of confusion... but whatevs, I can deal.
Steven is great. We spend most of our time listening to music and watching movies, which is excellent-- we have almost identical tastes in both. He's a gentleman, too... he opens doors and stuff, constantly, which I don't mind, of course :P . My family loves him, too, which is a plus... and he has excellent taste in clothes and such, which is a rarity these days. He's also really funny, and my friends love him for it, so we always have a good time.
I've been listening to a lot of The Decemberists and Death Cab for Cutie... (and of course, the Postal Service in addition). I still love Franz Ferdinand, however... they're sinking down the list of my favorites... still love them, but I've found music that I love a whole lot more.
Birth Control has its pros and cons, but that's all I'll say about that.
I might be getting a new car... maybe/possibly. My dad and I are looking at these little European Smart cars. The only bad thing is that there's a year long waiting list for them, but whatever. I need something new and more gas efficient to drive, and I can wait, theoretically... but I do need a car radio, and my birthday is coming up, so I'll keep my fingers crossed for a useful present... plus, I have the Plans DCFC cd, and I'd really like to play it while I'm driving. :-P
I start work on Thursday, which I'm CRAZILY EXCITED for, actually. I love working and making money... and I can always work my life out anyway. Plus, S&S treated me better than Express and I'll be getting paid more, so that's all I really care about at this point... also, it's less stressful and I'll have better hours. I'm so glad that I quit Express... good God. Haha.
Anyway, that's it, for now, I think... If I think of anything else, I'll just post more, yaknowwhatimean? :)
