(no subject)
hey all. yeah, i know, i haven't been on lj in like, forever
for those of you who don't know, i'm in montana for grad school. it's gorgeous out here! and lately, it's been fricking cold (yesterday had a high of 64°...)
unlike wooster, i actually have full days on campus. i either come in and work (mostly stuff with these triassic fossils right now, like id's and latex casts) and go to class, or it's ice versa. my days are generally 9-5, then i'll come back to the house and zone out, sleep, supposedly do hw (lol...) btw, digital cable is the shiznit! i'll be getting it installed in my room soon since the main upstairs tv (upstairs girls, downstairs boys) doesn't have working closed captioning... no way i can watch house, bones, dollhouse, and (sadly) american pregnant without closed captioning!
and i like, totally love netflix and bollywood movies. gonna listen to the om shanti om soundtrack after this (and maybe attempt some hw before turning in?)
the router in my house hates my compy. like, i haven't been able to wirelessly connect in the mont+ i've been here. after a day or two of looking everywhere online and my housemate calling customer support, i gave up and decided to buy a new router once my loan comes in
and speaking of loans, hopefully it'll come in soon so i can go grocery shopping, buy new jeans, pay off the credit card for textbooks, pay for gsa convention in portland (no travel fees, whee!) buy plane tickets home, buy the router, put money on the commuter meal plan, get some fall gear (hoodies!), etc. basically, i'm living mega frugally on a box of pasta and desperately waiting for the fricking check *grumbles...* i just want my mail! i believe i have some belated b-day gifts coming in (dvds, whee!) so... yeah...
everyone in the geology grad program seems nice, but it's only the start. we'll see if we've had enough of each other after a while, heh... it's kind of intimidating, since like, half of them are married and most waited for a while before going to grad school (i only know of one other student fresh out of undergrad)
man, i definetly miss foccacia (elena). and it figures that she would never answer the phone during her senior year, heh. and of course, buffyfest with you gillybean! (no idea where that came from... would you prefer gillyweed? harry potter reference? lol...)
anyways, gonna charge this compy (love my laptop!) before it's deader than spike/angel/edward/etc
