So I went out to Caribou Coffee just to get out for a bit, but it was already full of people so I had to take my tea and pumpkin bread to go. And there was too much water/ice/snow everywhere to venture further so I just went back to the flat. And apparently the mail made it through yesterday (I am very impressed) and I had a mailing tube waiting ( Read more... )

I went in to work yesterday, but then I got kicked out for the rest of the week again. *sigh* I need money!! More than just the $5 from the Cheerios box. Srsly, my next paycheck is going to be hilarious, because I only worked two days in that pay period what with finals and the plague, so it'll be less than $80. D ( Read more... )

OMG, Friday. *wraps it around her shoulders like a blanket* There has been far too much panic this week for my taste. I mean, I'm already stressed about the semester in general, I don't need more panic on top of that.

I registered for classes and got both the classes I wanted! Advanced Seminar in Children's Literature and Communities of Practice! Spring term will be awesome!

You guys, you guys, you guys!!! I don't know what to do with my life and that is totally okay!!! :D :D :D

I met with my children's literature professor this morning to discuss my term paper and career possibilities, and she is totally brilliant and I love her lots.

Tomorrow, the maintenance peoples will commence work on our bathrooms. They're (hopefully) starting with J's since he is having a guest this weekend and I would rather not have two people waltzing through my room to use the bathroom (since my bathroom is an en suite, see, whereas J's is in the hall). So once I've directed the crew to which ( Read more... )

Today was the first day of fall term! I was not really back into academic mode yet, but I got up and managed to find a notebook (not the school notebook, as that is still missing in the still unpacked boxes, and thus all I could come up with was a fic writing notebook...) and my backpack. Wandered over to the Metro station to try to find the stop ( Read more... )

If you'd be willing to participate in a survey, that'd be awesome. It's for a research project at my school that's being co-led by one of my favourite professors I've had so far (actually, the favourite prof, of the four I've had so far ( Read more... )
