I don't know whom I've told (or what I've told them), so here is a good sample from emails between me and my blockmate/best friend Amrita
Amrita:
dude life sci is making me fing wanna kill myself
done with module 2
on to 3
oh joy
Me:
hahaha fun times
ehh i'm on crutches and it sucks...barely been out of bed all day, spent 4 hours in UHS, xrays and blood drawn. I'll take life sci over that. and no hot australian man either :(
good luck though :) send me an email if you're bored...I can't really do much, it sucks.
Amrita:
wait though, you never explained why you are on crutches? what happened? all i can gather is you almost died in the shower from asprin, and now you are on crutches. im afraid i am going to need a slighly more coherent explanation than that my dear.
dude did you get the facilities list from the lowell house people? frigging amazing. amazing amazing.
ams
Me:
hahaha I don't know why but that email made me laugh :)
Um...I don't actually know what happened to my foot; I thought I broke my toe but it turns out that it's just "a lot of calcification and swelling...unusual" (my bunion?) I think I might have dropped a box on it at work...I randomly injure myself a lot so I probably wouldn't even remember if I had dropped a box on it. So yeah...spent 4 hours in UHS yesterday...got crutches, which sucks...spent ALL FREAKING DAY in bed :( Today I was able to sort-of walk around so I went to MIT to get my book and return Shilpa's book...turned out my book was at Harvard (I checked Hollis, but evidently I did the search wrong...gaaaahhhhh), so at least (a) I returned Shilpa's book and (b) it was nice outside because it is NOT fun to walk ANYWHERE on crutches. I now understand why Scott Farmer's (kid on my floor with one leg) arms are so damn strong. It's ridiculous...it's like lifting weights.
I haven't really looked at the facilities thing but it looks amazing so far...LOWELL!!! I'm so excited, it's going to be great. Great great great. :)
Well hopefully my foot will be better tomorrow becuase I am GOING TO CANADA!!! UHS said that it might not be a good idea if my foot didn't improve, but hopefully (knock on wood) it will...I'm already packing because if I go I have to leave at 8 am, fun fun.
[end of conversation]
So yeah...that's basically my spring break so far haha, and I'm going to Canada tomorrow morning! I'm so excited :) As for the Lowell thing...if I didn't mention it, my blocking group and I got into LOWELL, the BEST FREAKING UPPERCLASS HOUSE ON CAMPUS!!! (I'm sorry, ADAMS, but you have NOTHING. A gilded dining-hall staircase entry and a skylight. Big fat whoop.) (haha Adams House is notorious for their holier-than-thou artsiness, it's kind-of funny actually, because most of the Uchoir people are from Lowell. That's right.)
As you can see, I'm definitely a school spirit person...it's funny, because the housing lottery is (supposedly) random, but I really feel like there's a correlation between being in Uchoir and getting into Lowell, and at the beginning of the year, I went to Lowell to eat brunch with Uchoir and I thought, "I'm going to live here." I said that to one of the Uchoir people, who said, "Well, hopefully the housing lottery will put you here," and I was like, "No, you don't understand: I'M GOING TO LIVE HERE." I think sometimes I really do have ESP. Or something similar.
Anyway I'm going to bed now, I have to be out of here by 8 am, so tty'all later!
Ciao,
~moi~ ;)
