Countdown to winter break

Nov 24, 2003 13:55

I fell like that guy in the run at the end of Star Wars on the Death Star. You know, the guy who says, "Almost there. Almost there," over and over and over until you're ready to shriek, "You said you were almost there like five minutes ago! Clearly your definition of 'almost there' is wrong!" Or maybe that's just me.

So class ends on December 1st, which is a Monday. Who ends classes on a Monday I ask you? It makes no sense! While I'm sitting around working on two essays I started way too late, two presentations I know I'm going to bomb on, (I already totally screwed up the English one) I also have that whole, time-is-running-out feeling that comes at the end of a term when you're looking forward to the time off but you have too damn much work to really look forward to it. Mainly because you need more freakin' time!

Also need to start looking into Grad stuff. Anything to put off entering the real world of work and stuff. Man I wish my only goal in life was to find a rich husband. Or, as one of my dearest friends loves to quote from an issue of Seventeen magazine, "snag a dude."

Actually, for a while it was a phrase she had an obsession about. *Childhood story alert* My mother actually ordered subscriptions to Seventeen, YM and something else as well, I think. I've never been completely certain why. It may have had something to do with turning me into a real girl, who knows? Anyhow, so my friend was looking at some of my stuff and actually read through the magazine, doing to quiz on whether the guy you have a crush on is worth chasing after. The phrase "snag a dude" became one of her catch phrases for a while. Now she quotes Black Adder at me all the time instead. Currently it's "Do you want to hear about the goblin or not?"

And that's my senseless stream-of-consciousness for today.
