Finished the paper. It's not fantastic and a little all over the place, but it's done.

Rutgers application is en route right now. The man at the post office said it would probably get there tomorrow, so I'm actually early!

I bought The Dark Knight on DVD as a congrats to myself for finishing (yeah, I'm a brat). My mom and I watched it tonight ( Read more... )

So, I checked out the soundtrack to Twilight the other day while visiting people at B&N on my lunchbreak (my temp job is pretty close to the store). I was decidedly unimpressed with the overall selection (especially because I'm not too keen on Paramore and I cannot STAND Linkin Park). So, I've been compiling my own playlist.

~Build up to seeing Sweeney Todd (Depp singing = worth price of admission; I'm also reading the original serialized novel, which is amusingly absurd ( Read more... )

I. Absolutely incredibly obsessed with Fiction Plane's single "Two Sisters". Seriously - cannot.stop.listening! Every time I hear it (including on the radio!) I start dancing.

I know I was going to write a full review of HP&DH as my next entry, but I got busy this past week with work and IZE. Both of which I will detail later.
