I got my Clap Your Hands Say Yeah cd in the mail today and so far find it very much to my liking.
So last night I went to a costume party...and then to a toga party. The first of my collegiate career and likely the last, though it was a lot of fun. I actually ran into quite a few people that I knew and managed to have a lovely conversation about pooping with a girl from the Talking Heads cover band I've gone to see around town a few times.
Today I am missing yet another round of kickball with the kids from back home, but I seem to have so much stuff piling up from summer classes that I can't feel too bad about it. Soon I will be free of all classes and living in that area, so it will be a moot point. I'm taking a break from working on a five page paper at the moment, after which I get to back to some good quality database programming using JDBC and mySQL. The strange thing is that I'm actually rather enjoying all the stuff we're doing in database...meaning I've waited until my very last computer class at the university to find one that I'm genuinely enjoying doing. Maybe this signals hope that the future will not be all boring code monkey slaving.
Two weeks left in Athens, scary thought. I'm moving out next weekend, attending my cousin's wedding the weekend after that, and then am faced with finals whilst living on Ben's couch. Hurray for impending professional responsibility? I think not.
