You are trying to bait me with your snobbery
The last week was so busy. I ended up sleeping from 1 am to 5 pm o Sunday. I was so exhausted.
Anyway, so to tell all that has happened.
Thursday was amazing! We saw my school's production of Into the Woods and it was beyond phenomenal. The singing, the acting, the set, the costumes--everything was just amazing. I ended up seeing it agin Saturday night (but it wasn't free anymore). I took lots of pictures (without the flash!)!.
I knew the guy who played Jack and the girl who played Little Red Riding Hood, and omgsh. Can they sing. Brittany, Little Red, was so adorable! My favorite character was by far, the wolf though. His voice was just umph. I wants. Alyssa and I were saddened by the fact that he has such a small part. The actor who played him was probably the best up there though. It was even difficult to get his picture because he was constantly moving. The funniest characters were probably the princes though. I just have to laugh at them. Yay for making fun the steretypical Prince Charming...x2!!
So that was the highlight of the week. I ended up getting a 77, the lowest grade I've made in college, on a Latin quiz. It really irked me. A lot. I really dislike her system of having to type up everything online. It's such a waste of time...which takes up my study time and notecard making time. Heck, it took me 30 minutes just to type up all the blasted homework from one night, which could have totally been study time.
Which brings us to budget cuts. Yes, I'm complaining about Latin, but I really love it. Too bad Mrs. E does not have her PhD (she has her Masters), so she's considered a temp. She's been a temp. for 18 blasted years, but guess who's going to get fired first after the cuts? Temps. I am not happy, but I am not the worst off. One of my friend's majors (Writing and Linguistics) is getting cut, and it's official. Alyssa's HR focus is at risk for getting cut. She can still switc to Management without much problem, but it's still severely disconcerting.
My major is okay because it's one of the core academics. Unfortunately, my upper division classes are having to be rotated every 2-3 semesters, meaning its going to be more difficult to graduate on the new English major system that requires you to satisfy a certain amount of hours in specific literary areas. Not for me though! Yay for not being a 2009 freshman!
Wednesday was nice. We were inducted into Sigma Tau Delta. Lawl. I read my favorite poem "The Siren Song" by Magaret Atwood. Everyone loved it. I made peoples laugh. x333
There was this one girl who takes everything waayyyy too seriously though. She forgot a poem/ quotation, stood up at the front, and said, "Due to my other academic obligations, I forgot to memorize/bring a poem to this induction, and thus I do not deserve to be inducted into this society. I will forever by immortalized as the girl who forgot to bring the poem." And this was said in pure seriousness and shame. O__O
Luckily, Dr. D handled extremely well. Everything turned out okay, but we were all like, "Seriously? Calm down. We're not going to crucify you for something most of us didn't decide on untl about an hour this."
Skipping around! Friday was a hell. I didn't get back from the musical Thursday night until about 11:00 pm, and then I had so much Latin to. I was up until about 1 am and completely exhausted already. And then I realized I didn't have my jump drive. My essays. My scholarships. My pictures. I was not happy,
I went early t look at the last place I used it, but it was not there. So it's gone. Poof. This may sound extreme, but I was honestly devasted. I felt like part of myself had just disappeared, so I didn't feel like myself at all. It felt like was watching myself doing everything, and I was so thoughtless. I just couldn't think, so everything I did was systematic, which means I didn't write my midterm for Literature for Adolescents! Then, during work, since I ran out of systematic things to do, I decided to read the book I'm supposed to read for LfA, Speak. BAD IDEA. No thoughts for myself means I was more susceptable to the main characters thoughts. She's depressed. I felt like shit. After driving around town looking for a book that no one could find, I ended up at The Book and Cranny, which actually had it.
John called me because we were supposed to go and see Alice in Wonderland that night. I started crying on my phone aftrer a full day of silence while still in the parking lot. So John came to my rescue and we ate Quiznos! Yum! It made it better. Then, we went to his place, finding Ric passed out on the couch. We went to John's room for a while, talked, made out, and I felt a hellovalot better.
It was funny because, when John and I were just cuddling, Ric peeks in with the funniest expression. He was like, "Can I come in please? :<<" We all talked for a while, joking and what not, when Ric tells me that he was Rapunzel's prince in his high school's production of Into the Woods. xDDDD
This convinced John to go to see it with me Satuday night! :>>
I went to bed when I got back to the dorm, waking up at 4 am to write a midterm essay that was due at 12 pm the same day! I totally emailed it at 11:55 am. :DD
The rest of the day really was too interesting, except for that Katie had a B-day party at the dorm after the musical (11 pm). This prooves how tired I was. I was able to fall asleep with, I think, 10-15 show choir people in the dorm when they were all singing. I was very tired, and slept for 14 hours straight. Dreaming that I drove into a lake, sinking 50 feet before getting out, and then mommy and daddy being veryvery angry at me.
Sorry for the length and any mistakes. I have to go to class now!
