(no subject)
Week from HELL! Okay, maybe not that dramatic, but hella stressful! Summerschool is eating me alive right now. And it doesn't feel good!
Oh the upside, it's almost over.
On the upper side (no, not drugs!) my boyfriend made me yummy dinner! At my place! It was all kinds of awesome.
I find myself being more conscious of english grammar now that I'm thinking in french grammar all the time. Wierd... This whole french/english switching is messing with my head! What still sucks is I'm so bad at spelling in both languages. Well okay, not actually that bad, but I'm a perfectionist, so it really bugs. Plus I keep spelling english words in a french way. ha. I guess I bet get used to it.
By the by, the Kaiser Chiefs rule. Especially live. Their concert was amazing! But I heard they're now on an Arizona jeans commercial! Soooo not amazing. And it's Na Na Na Na Na! Roisin, they've raped our song! But they're still awesome, even if they did sell out. ;)
**Major Change of Topic**
I've begun to realize that there are far fewer solid answers to life's questions than I once thought. Well actually I never gave them that much thought when I was younger. I guess that's the point. Endless debate about a single topic can be exhilerating, but frustrating at the same time. I long for answers, but they don't exist! Okay so I'm a total nerd, but sometimes I don't want class discussions to end because I'm so engaged in them. Other times, it just frustrates me to no end how futile our talking about the injustices in our society are when it seems they will never be fixed. Going to Berkeley one can never escape the issue of inequality and racism because they practically drill it into our heads every chance they get (they being professors) that this issue practically defines our nation. Being a history major, especially one specializing in US, it's just so apparant that race defines so much of what our country is and could be.
That is my random rant for the day. Too much essay writing for me. Why am I writing for fun now? I'm crazy I guess.
Je veux un vrai ete: plein d'amusement, du soleil, et du rire!
