i'm supposed to be starting to pack up things i won't be needing for my last few weeks here at Tech. so of course i'm taking the time to answer emails, find and read new blogs etc.
i think i'm going to be heading out early early tomorrow morning (hopefully around 6am), swinging by that school down the road to pick up emily and hopefully getting back to the beach by early afternoon. the forecast is saying it's going to snow tonight, so i'm crossing my fingers that it's not too much. i really don't feel like trying to drive down all these twisty mountain roads in ice and snow.
i'm really indignant about this snow though. on tuesday it was about 80F here. everyone was in shorts and skirts and tank tops. now it's freaking freezing and i have to get all bundled up to ward off the freezing wind. grar.
in other news, i got halfway into grad school. i applied to Catholic University for a masters in moral theology/ethics, despite my undergrad being in biology with a minor in literature. they said i'm accepted but i need to take 12 credits of religion or theology classes and 9 credits of philosophy classes as prerequisites to my MA. so i'm not exactly sure what i'm going to be doing, i'm probably going to defer for a year (there are more scholarship opportunities during the fall semester) and take a semester's worth of classes at Tech. but that's still all up in the air. plus, if i stay here i need to find somewhere to live and a job kind of soon. it's frustrating and i sometimes wish they had just rejected me because then there would be less stress...more disappointment but definitely less stress because it would be much clearer what i could/couldn't do.
i still haven't heard any more from the internship people but i'm keeping my fingers crossed for the summer in Seattle (not that i have anywhere to live there either).
ah jeez. why must everything be so complicated?!
Audio: What song do you listen to when you are sad?
Submitted by Nat.
it depends on whether i want to feel the sadness for a bit or if i want to cheer myself up.
if i feel like feeling sad i listen to casiotone for the painfully alone's song called "we have mice"
it's pretty much the perfect lonely time song.
if i feel like being cheered up lately i've been listening to teddybears (formerly teddybears STHLM)
in particular the song "cobrastyle"
zomg it's like crack.
in other news:
i hate winter and want it to be over.
i particularly hate it when the retainer in my septum gets cold and then i have a rather unpleasant tingling sensation in the end of my nose until i can warm up.
i also hate having cold hands, feet, nose and ears.
grar.
also. jeffrey is the sweetest.
