We won our intramural volleyball game tonight. It was fun. It might be our last game of the season though, because our team is lazy and nobody went to the captain's meeting; if someone doesn't show up to represent your team, you're not eligible for the playoffs. Whoops. We're going to try to finagle a spot in the tournament anyways. I highly recommend intramural sports. They're fun and they get you off your ass, which is always beneficial.
Oh my god. I did the most bizarre and disturbing thing today. Every weekday I work at a law firm for a couple of hours. Erin, the legal assistant who is 24 and "in charge" of me I guess you could say, had left about 30 minutes before to go to class. So I was sitting at her desk doing some online research and answering phones and such, when a man walked into the office. He said "Are you Donna?" Donna is another woman who works there in the financial department. And my brilliant response was "No, I'm Erin." I INTRODUCED MYSELF AS SOMEONE ELSE. Then I was like, "Oh wait, I'm at Erin's desk. My name is Andrea." Very smooth and professional. I don't know what this incident implies. I'm crazy, perhaps? Or maybe I have some subconscious desire to be Erin? Or maybe I just want to do her. She's pretty cute. But she has a boyfriend, and so do I, so it's not very feasible. All very strange.
I'm doing well in my classes. My toughest one, R474 Self-Cultivation and Spiritual Exercises, is also my most interesting one. I just discuss certain texts having to do with the course topic with 8 people twice a week (we're reading Chuang-Tzu right now, but our assignments aren't always primary texts). I got an 89.5 on the one paper we've been assigned, which is okay. If I hadn't stayed up all night writing it the night before I would've done better. But our only other grade is this huge research paper that's coming up, and I'm nervous. I don't know what to write about. We can write about whatever we want, having to do with the course topic of course. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm planning to meet with my prof this week, so hopefully he can offer some help too.
Well, that's about it. My family is coming to town this weekend because my dad is riding in the Hilly Hundred, and also because they adore me and want to see me. Both my sisters are coming too. Free food and shopping. I'm really excited. I also have a lovely friend visiting from Ball State. You all wish you were as cute as her. It's true.
Alright I have to get off of Kyle's computer. (Mine is fucked, again. I wish the bastards would just give me a new one already.) Peace out, bitches.
