Nothing like playing with those heat packets that come with the MREs...

I got my AIAS card in the mail today. Woo! Coolness.
Well, I'm in the first group to present in front of the jury Wednesday. Fortunately we're in the gallery, not the jury room. Less pressure.
I think that's basically all I had to say. Oh, and we're closing on the house earlier than expected, so there's more time to work on it before we move in. Yay for that.
Have a good day, lovelies.

How can we make two weeks go by really fast?








Westley
Inconceivable! You scored 90!
You live it, you love it, you lost track long ago of how many times you have seen it. You have been known to wish someone luck by hollering "have fun storming the castle!" You scoff at people who cannot recite the entire 'battle of wits.' You are a true fan. Thank you. Its people like you that give me hope for humanity.

So wait, I'm not 100% compatible with myself?

Hello, lovelies, and Happy Thanksgiving!
I went and looked at the house yesterday. It's not as bad as I thought, but could still use a LOT of improvement in some areas. Fortunately, I've talked my sister into going with my ideas for our room. Yeah, she wanted "light blue" and I was thinking more "Lawrence of Arabia" or "Oriental spice trade." Yeah, now I sound all weird, but that's what you get...
Well, it's almost time to go eat with the family on my dad's side. Endure the Catholic jokes (can't bring up the fact that we're "not together" - what? it could be just a temporary thing - because it'd go straight to their heads) and try not to choke on turkey. Why do we continue with this traditional nightmare? Turkeys don't taste all that great.
Right. Gotta go get dressed and whatnot.

Doomsday has never been more fun!

Hey peeps. Losing power from 4:30 to almost midnight is not so much fun. But at least we got power before this morning. Didn't get any work done on freehand, and had to cut studio short. But I did get some good pictures at the site for the Photoshop portion of the project.
Didn't get to go to a movie last night. Gonna try for tonight.
Umm, last bit of news for the day. I got a call from my mom this morning (yeah, thanks for waking me up) and she told me we're moving a couple of blocks to a bigger house. The interior is a blast from the past, but I should have enough time before we move in to at least paint some stuff.
*Yawn*
Shower time.

"Thank you for being a good student. Have a nice life. Where did the other ferret go?"

Hey people.
Quick update while I'm practicing good tornado safety. I'm feeling much better than I did the other day. Dennis and I are still very good friends, we even went to Wal-Mart together last night. From an earlier conversation today, it looks like he may be coming back next semester. *crosses fingers*
He showed me a website for a travel agency offering yacht cruises to Ecuador and the Galapagos. Looks like fun. We'll see what happens...

Today sucks.

Hello, everyone. I'm single again.
Blame the hurricane.
Yeah...
I'll be doing studio work for the rest of the afternoon, then physics and English tonight. Sounds fascinating, I know.
You guys can reach me on the cell.

Stop asking if I think he's gonna propose!

Hiya!
Just sitting here, sipping my uber-caffeinated tea and munching on vanilla wafers. Have I been to sleep? No. Will I get at least a short nap? Probably not.
It's really interesting to see who'll walk through the doors at the art building at 2 in the morning. Actually, not really. Architecture kids.
So what am I doing up? Procrastinating. Should be doing Physics. Turns out there's still a wee bit of a chance for me to make a B. So no more wondering if I'll have to take physics 2 during the summer. Woot!
I feel kinda British...
Ugh, and today's a long day, too. I'm almost staring at the 24-hour mark now, and I have a 13 hour day starting at 8. Hahahaha... Plus I've gotta finish up my (woo hoo) next to last English essay. Went to my last lab today. Er, yesterday. It's 5 a.m.
Bah. Must get to work.

The Conquests of Sexy Chef Man!

'K, so Dennis cooked a special birthday dinner for me. Chicken thighs marinated in a red wine sauce, bowtie pasta with homemade alfredo, a bread and olive oil with cracked pepper appetizer, and French silk pie for dessert.
We ate in his room and watched "Sabrina" until we both dozed off for a little while. Dennis doubles as a very nice pillow.
Yeah...

"I just drank a baby."

Evening, lovelies!
Those of you in the "Sushi is Good" group will be happy to know that I tried some last night and enjoyed it. Didn't even have much trouble with the chopsticks. Even did the cute little teapot thing, too.
Yeah, Dennis and I went out with Dave and Brittany. She had the most disturbing ... drinking ... apparatus ... I've ever seen. It was a porcelain child with a hole in the back of its head. And it was facing me throughout dinner.
So we'll have to go to Sakura (or wherever) sometime in the nearish future.
Yummy yummy fishy fishy!!!
Yeah, sorry for stealing your sushi chant, Heather...

Stuff and junk.

It's ... Thursday.

You know what's really good? Navel oranges. The kind with the thick peel, so you have to work a little to get to the yummy citrus goodness. Ever since I was a verreh small child, I always got one in my Christmas stocking. Don't know which side of the family that came from, but I doubt it really matters.
But back to the fruit. They keep FOREVER in the fridge, if you need them to. I bought some when I first arrived in Starkville in August, and I ate the last one about a month later. Still quite good. Crisp.

Let's see...
Got an A on my last essay, so that gives me an A in the course. Woo hoo!
Next week I'll be registering for spring courses and renewing my housing contract.
Not to mention birth-daaaaaaaaay Monday. ^^ And my dad's is Friday.

So yeah, college life is a scream. Class, studio, homework, feeding the starving boyfriend, watching this anime show about a former samurai.
