so it's 5am
you know you're a kid at heart when even in college you can't sleep the night before the first day of school. yeeeah.
so i'm sitting at my desk, my roommate's asleep, i'm drinking some coffee i just made and i'm totally awake. this sucks. i want to get a good night's sleep so that i can be all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and whatnot, but i guess that ain't happening. i guess i can still be peppy and happy and shit on the first day without a good night's sleep for just one night. i've been sleeping 7-8 hours every other night this week so i'm sure i'll be fine.
yesterday something monumental happened: the whole fam (me, my brother, mom and dad) saw a movie together, pan's labyrinth. in a theater. yes, a lovely family outing on this dr. martin luther king, jr. day. i can't remember the last time that happened. it was truly absurd to be sitting in a movie theater with my mom to my left and the boys to my right. so odd. anyway, the movie was quite good. it was also great to brush up on my mad spanish skills, or lack-there-of.
this article, about the rise in numbers of women who live alone, is a bit unsettling, as i'd rather not be unmarried for most of my adult life. i don't consider myself old-fashioned - if anything, i'm a bit of a feminist (whatever that means) - but i'd rather not be a lonesome careerwoman until i'm fourty. i mean, my career (yet to be decided!) is important and all, but so is my own personal, um... satisfaction, i'd call it. how many of these single women are getting around? that's what's missing in this article.
i should really start planning my summer. i think i've come to a more concrete decision: take one summer class that ends late june, and then go to israel. then come back and veg at my parent's house until i go to london in september (hopefully). sounds like a pretty awesome last summer of freedom before the i'm thrusted into the real world/finished with my lovely liberal arts bachelor degree, no?
or, i can just plan tomorrow:
8am - american jewish history
9:30am - shakespeare survey II
reading at the library (what else do i do with my time??)
2pm - american jewish history recitation (probably cancelled)
track practice
home
another semester. gah.
