if you're so smart, tell me why are you still so afraid?
So...talked to my Director of Studies today, so that I could register for classes (only about three weeks late...I suck). I may have possibly suggested that I might have my prospectus in by the end of this quarter. Which is the second(?) week in March, and therefore patently impossible. Next quarter I think I'm only taking Latin and about 12 thesis hours, so that I will get the damn thing done. At any rate, I'm going to start really cramming in research time, which will be oh-so-fun with my 10-page Latin research paper and that story I have to write.
So that's my plan for tomorrow. Tonight--memes!
Congratulations, you are one of the many admirers
of Maglor. His defining characteristic is
his singing. He is the nicest and sweetest
of the Feanoreans, and the only one to
survive the First Age. He can be influenced
easily, too. Unfortunately, his brothers
will always be better at it than you.
Which Son of Feanor should you fancy?

Haha, I knew it! I didn't even cheat, I swear.
1. Open your media player ( Winamp, whatever..) and set it to random.
2. Post your favorite lyrics from the first 25 songs that play.
3. Put this in your journal, and see if people know what you’re listening to.
4. Oh, and no cheating! No Googling lyrics and whatnot. Not that I think y'all would cheat...would you?

7. and all not lost still in my eyes / a shattered necklace across your thigh / i might've lived my life in a dream, but I swear / this is real / memory fuses and shatters like glass / mercurial future, forget the past / it's you / it's what i feel--"Leaving New York," by R.E.M., guessed by Elizabeth the Anonymous

I just leaned against the window to see if it was snowing and I got a static shock to the head. I think I should have superpowers now. Or an aneurysm.
