don't fear the reaper
I should be packing, but I think I've packed all that I can today. The rest will just have to wait until tomorrow. I can't wait to get out of Water Street. This building is pissing me off to the very last minute; they say I'll get charged if I'm not out of the building by noon tomorrow. What good is that going to do? I can't help it if my family's flight gets in at two. They can go fuck themselves. (Actually, my RA talked to the building manager for me and said that as long as I check out at some point tomorrow, I should be fine.) Still, it's the principle of the matter.
This last week went well. All my hardcore studying payed off... sort of. My art history exam seemed to go well. I knew all the answers, and wrote what I thought were good essays. Natural Science did not go so well. I'm sure I got no better than a B at the very most. But oh well. Everyone else I've talked to said they were just as fucked as i was, so I don't feel too bad. I really don't care, it's my last requirement course, so whatever.
Tuesday night I had dinner with Mary and Fred at Spice. Afterward, we went to have dessert at Veniero's in the East Village, where I almost got tipsy off a rum-soaked creme puff. It was very sad saying goodbye to Mary. It was only that night that I actually realised just how long it will be until I see a lot of the people I care about.
Yesterday I went to the library and watched All About My Mother. I had randomly been in the mood to see it since the weekend. So, I decided to treat myself to a post-exams film. I had forgotten what a beautiful and sad film it is. The first time I watched it, a long time ago, I watched it with my mom. If it made me tear up this time, I can only imagine how she must have felt when she saw it. But seriously, it's a gorgeous film. Every shot is worthy of being a painting. Those are the kind of films I want to make.
And speaking of making films, I turned in my application for internal transfer to Tisch today. Although quite anticlimactic, the very act made me so nervous. Now, all I can do is wait. A very long time. I should probably forget about it.
Well, we'll see if I am able to update in the next week or so, as I don't know what my internet situation will be at the Washington Square Hotel. Just to cover my bases, I wish everyone a very Happy Holiday and a wonderful New Year.
