Who knows where the time goes?
Wow. Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. 2008 is almost over. Will anyone be sad to see it go? This has sort of been a sucky year all-around.
My email is messed-up, so a lot of emails aren't going through. Lucy, I'm hoping that you got my email saying that I couldn't go to your party (my mom had surgery), but probably not. A bunch of assignments that I sent to my teachers didn't get replies, so I don't think that they went through, which majorly sucks.
Tonight, I'm sending out an email to my teachers, asking for letters of recommendation for my college applications. I'm going to add a post-script telling them to email me back for any missing homework. I mean, it's too late for them to count, but I wouldn't want to write a letter for someone who I thought did even bother to do major assignments. I'd like people to know that I did do my work... and I can just hope
Our internet is also having hissy fits. Again.
I'm going to stop bitching and make a list. (I love lists. It's sad.)
To be more cheerful and holiday-spirited, we've gotten a lot of snow and it is splendid.
