yes. i'm pouting.
granted, at first glance it may not look like i've much reason to pout.
well.
i made amends with my mom (though there's still plaster missing on the wall where i hit it. with the piece of wood, not my hand; i only punched the doors a few times.)
i did much better than expected on my bosnian test, a whopping 99.27% woot.
i finished Dr Seraphinoff's "Macedonian Gold" (excellent - it's got me so interested that i'd like to buy the book he references so much, Aleksandar Donski's "The Descendants of Aleksandar the Great of Macedon." also just finished (today) Aleksandar Hemon's "Nowhere Man." good, kinda confusing in how it ends, but, really well written - Hemon has an excellent voice.
listening to The Beatles.
and i found out that Operation Mobilization ArtsLink is going back to Bosnia july 2006! (andrew, i dare you to look into it). i'm so excited. emailed ben immediately to update him. (mom snitted at me royally when i mentioned it, chiding me for not finishing things up from this last july. fine fine fine. bite me.) (no, Kris, not an invitation).
reason to pout #1: they're also going to Albania, but that's in april, AND my mom is totally against me going to Albania. hmph. *mutters* fine, i'll just move to Kosovo, how's that.
reason to pout #2: i'm thinking that even though i'd *really* like to take Denis Basic's Islam in the Balkans course, that since it'd be another class to chalk up for extension (aka another thousand bucks), it may be a deciding factor if i do Bosnia again in july or not. i don't know. wah.
i love the Balkans.
and i hate having to choose.
and being forced to choose.
and being rubbed the wrong way about things.
i gotta do more research on Albania, what ticks her off so much about it? i know it's been home to a little more extremism than the rest of the balkan countries, civil unrest, but what else?
*blinks*
am i going insane.
The Uncivil (my novel) goes pretty well; almost got the whole intro down. may go to a write in tomorrow night; it's across from work. *shrugs* we'll see.
:: tell me that you want the kind of things that money just can't buy/i don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love ::
