So I realize it's been a while since I've written anything of any meaning or just about life these days... But there really isn't anything to say, this is Geneseo, if there was stuff to talk about it just wouldn't be anymore.
Let's see... Almost withdrew from my Human Rights class because it's insane, absolutely impossible, the prof is psychotic and his tests are ridiculous. I had the slip in my backpack and everything and I was going to ask him to sign it after class but then he announced that he's letting us redo the exam for partial credit and that the bulk of our grade will depend on the final paper anyway so that sort of stopped me. I really hated the idea of giving up like that but what I thought it was going to do to my GPA I hated even more. Hopefully things will get better though, I'm going to work for as long as possible this weekend on that paper so we'll see. Actually I found out that a lot of people were considering withdrawing as well which is surprising because everyone in my class is so flippin smart. I guess maybe I'm not as dumb as I thought. Yay.
I can't believe how quickly this semester went by. In just 2 weeks is Thanksgiving and after that there's only a week and a half till study break and then that's it! Sometimes, as much as I want time to fly, it scares me.
Just for fun here are some AIM countdowns:
Christmas break - 1 Month, 1 Week, 2 Days left.
England and Holland, dada da da! - 1 Month, 2 Weeks left.
19 - 3 Months, 4 Days left.
Last day of school (May 11) - 6 Months left.
First day of camp (June 25th) - 7 Months, 2 Weeks left.
Gretchee's visiting me next weekend! I'm so excited! It's going to be wonderful on many levels.
I feel like my hair's been growing again. But I'm probably just bring dellusional again.
Whilst in England I have to find a George Harrison vinyl, or at least a Beatles one. Would that be a managable endeavor?
Am also excited that I'll be able to give Ola her birthday present in person, teehee.
We got some flurries yesterday! T'was fun. They made me smile and I still wore my crocs because I heart them so. This fall was much milder and slower to change which makes me hope that maybe summer won't be so crazy hot either.
I've learned to crochet! Megan taught me, it's good times. I'm not good at it at all but I'm practicing. And my mom said she might teach me knitting over Thanksgiving + Ha and Chi are absolutely amazing at anything home ec so they can show me stitches too and so can Amanda. I'm excited to learn to be domesticated.
Next semester I have drawing, am so SO happy about that. The whole schedule in itself looks pretty enjoyable... Just putting off all the crap classes I know I eventually have to take as much as I can. So yeah I get to end up with hum, bio, psychobio-related stuff, and micro all at once probably next year.
Chi fell asleep on my bed. It is rather adorable.
Binio, this will only be amusing to you I think BUT - Josh asked me if his name could be translated into Russian and after thinking for a few days and not being able to come up with anything I googled Russian baby boy names and got a whole list. Well, it appears that Yasha kind of works except I'm really not a fan of that name because I have associations with relatives. So I send him the list and tell him that since we can't think of anything he can just pick a name for himself. What does the boy choose? - Feyodor. ??? Well, OK, anytime he calls me Masha I just call him Fedya in return. I really enjoy that name too but I don't think anyone who isn't Russian could understand why it's so amusing to me and so I am relying on you Albinochka (ujas, just saying your name like that makes me feel like a stoop grandma ::shudder::, not that I don't love you of course).
I must say, I really have a much bigger desire to go home for breaks during fall semesters, not so much during the spring. Porque? Yo no se. But I am kind of excited, there are a bunch of people I want to see and things that I want to do. Am also taking the mother out for dinner and a movie for her birthday and looking forward to it.
I crave apple sauce, too bad I'm out. The week old green jello in the fridge (that's really Ha's) just isn't going to do.
Ah I have butterflies in my stomach. Porque? Yo no se.
