I failed my physics test this morning. I'm starting to make a habit of this. I would be more concerned, but the two Indian grad students walked out of the room shaking their heads, so maybe the curve will be generous. In related news, I have settled on Scotland. The University of Dundee, to be exact. I will be there next school year. UK will be paying for it. I will get a year ahead in physics. And none of it will affect my GPA. Also, it looks nice there. I was playing with the idea of going to Hawaii through the National Student Exchange, but I figured Hawaii might be bad for pale red-heads and they don't have cute accents there. I really think someone should take advantage of this Hawaii thing. One can go and study for the price of UK tuition (or whatever one's home university tuition is), pay housing to Hawaii (which is cheaper than UK) and there one is, in Hawaii, less than a mile from Wakkiki (sp?) beach. Scotland also seems like a great option (anything to get me away from UK seems like a good option though). I'm very excited. I was researching this last night instead of studying for aforementioned physics test. I just hope I can control my excitement and keep up my school work while I bide my time.
Dan's coming over in a couple of minutes! I may make him take me to the movies. This is a good weekend for movies. I am very excited about Harry Potter and Walk the Line. Why are there such long periods of crap movies followed by rapid influxes of good ones? I wish it were more evenly spaced out. Also: Yours, Mine, and Ours looks painful to watch. Why are so many family movies completely idiotic? This one is particularly bad because it's a remake. They should have realised the first time that it was stupid.
I'm gaining weight. I bet a lot of it is due to the fact that when I eat spaghetti, I sit down and eat an entire box of it (8 servings). I do this twice a week. Something about spaghetti just keeps me wanting more. I may start walking to class in the morning. But I probably won't. It's cold.
