going through the usual "i should start my paper but instead i'm doing [something completely unproductive, yet somehow justifiable]" i come across this wonderful site, as i always do, right after checking my email. thefacebook has yet to become part of that automatic sequence of internet activity. i hope it never does. although thefacebook is great for important info on the captains of opposing bookstore basketball teams. that's right, i took advantage. we're playing some frosh boys who will hopefully get drunk with us before and it will be AWESOME.
another awesome thing is my buddy writing emails and calling from ireland. we call each other every few weeks or so, but we never write emails. that put a big smile on my face. can't believe i've known the kid since i was seven. joining the peace corp and becoming an irish citizen isn't exactly on my top ten list of things to do, but hey, whatever floats your boat...i guess i can support another stint outside the U.S. :)
in other news, for those of you i have not told yet- because i don't talk to everyone on this friends list on a daily/monthly/ever basis- i got into Southwestern Univ. School of Law. wow. a couple days ago that sentence would have read something like this:
as;lkdsjf;asdkljga DHOLY SHIT I'M GONNA BE A LAWYA!!!lskdjfkdsldkfj*yells of joy* etc. etc.
but yesterday i got rejected from u. penn. - not that i wanted to go there, but it reminded me that i have yet to hear from some of the schools i really want to attend in northern cali. and that there is a good chance i won't get in. Los Angeles is great and all, but i like the people waaayyy better in the bay area. heck yes. whatever, any law school is better than no law school. i still can't believe it. what a relief.
so there's that...
and still this paper for my one final university requirement, U.S./Latino Spirituality. i worry about the T.A.- this stout, serious guy, always dressed in suit and tie but who spikes his hair- i don't think he likes the fact that i don't come to class sometimes. and by sometimes i mean two more times than the maximum two absences. the first two, alarm mishaps- honestly! the second two- got too drunk at State and turned off my alarm subconsciously.... maybe that happened the second time too. i don't know. but i'm one of about two/three people in the class who actually respond to things and participate (a lot)- the material is not only familiar, but also relatively uncomplicated. and my papers have all been great so far. so i think the TA's frustrated, because i'm a good student with bad attendance. so who wants to be a 2nd semester senior? thankfully, the extra credit assignment just might be able to save my grade.... we'll see if i care that much when the time comes.
hmm, don't want to be up all night, so i do believe i should actually start this thing. i'm not really sad about missing a chance to go out though... i think i'm sick with a cold/cough. alcohol can wait until tomorrow- chau gente :)
