Homework and a Baby

Aug 31, 2006 19:49


     Well, my professors did it again. They all woke up simultaneously last night screaming, "I need to make my students read something substantial RIGHT NOW!!!!" I have something along the lines of six chapters and two full books to read over the weekend, not to mention write two poems and keep up with Spanish homework. I mean, I was planning to do about that much reading anyway, but I had different material in mind. On the other hand, it's less intense than when I have a pile of writing to do, so I can't complain too much.

Today was also the first day of "Balletballetballetballetballetballetballetballet!!" Ah, makes me happy....

It should also be mentioned that last Tuesday I adopted a baby. A plant baby, that is. A little aloe plant. My Joshua tree that I doted on for six years(raised it from a seed, talked to it and everything) died last year, and I was crushed. But I can only go so long without having something green hanging out on the windowsill, and the guy said the plant's about a year old, probably, so I thought "well, it's the same age as my college career, that's kinda meaningful even if I didn't plant its little seed in the ground," so I bought it. Also, it looked healthy, is low maintenance and cost $5.

Well, I have the aforementioned workload to get started on, so I'll sign off for now.
