Elphie, did you get into the other schools you applied to? Are you still leaning toward U of Chicago?
I got into all the other schools I applied to, except for Columbia. I'm leaning towards Chicago, yes, unless I hate it when I go there tomorrow and Tuesday.
Elphie, did you leave him a message?

Awesome! It's, obviously, a great school. Congrats on getting in.
Good afternoon everyone.

I can't believe I missed the opera talk!
La Boheme and Madame Butterfly are two great starters. Baz Luhrmann's production of Boheme was AMAZING. I think it was that production that converted me into an opera fan.
Although--it was glaringly obvious that I was a Rent fan when I went to see it, because of how I reacted to a certain ending....I think my parents were embarrassed.
My fish incidentally are named Marcello and Rodolfo. They are still alive. As for the dead fish, I told my roommate and she said "I know". And made no move to dispose of it.
I flushed him.
Poor fishy.

It's so sad, and I can't believe she didn't even care. She definitely killed it through negligence.
This is just one of many reasons why I hate her.

My iriver is malfunctioning, which is sad b/c it has some "recorded" stuff on it that I REALLY, REALLY want if you catch my drift.

I don't know about iRivers, but with iPods, sometimes if they act up, if you let them de-charge completely the charge them fresh, they'll be ok.

I'm trying to contact Tech Support. I wish I wasn't so dumb when it came to technology..
Elphie- It's so cool that you're leaning towards U of Chicago. I'm only about an hour away from the chicago area.

Special afternoon edition of Baking with Amber...
Lemon Pound Cake...
We may have our first Baking with Amber disaster...something didn't seem right when I was making it. It's in the oven, we'll find out soon enough
Don't you have a reset button or something?
Pound cake is SO GOOD. I had really good corn bread last night. :)
I hope it turns out Amber. I love pound cake! I had some ice cream cake last night and it was delicious. I think I want another piece right now.
Mm, cake. I had nothing but McDonalds and pizza this weekend.
downtowndiva, was your roommate's fish named Mimi?
I slept for almost 12 hours. I only got up because sleeping through the entire day is really pathetic, but I'm still really out it.
Mmm...corn bread!
Now I have a big craving...
Woohoo, 8-0 Yankees!

It turned out! I took a picture, but...it pretty much doesn't look like anything interesting, and you can't even see the iced glaze I put on top. It's rather good...This one's actually for my sister, but I need to make one for myself here in a little bit...

Yum, cake! You guys talking about opera reminded me of an Emmy Rossum interview I read yesterday. Her dream opera role is Musetta. Musetta, from Carmen. Uhhhhh...
Anyway! I just got back from my friend's piano recital. She was very surprised to see me (I hadn't seen her since LAST February). After she played, she and her roommate left, but I stuck around for the rest of it, because it reminded of band in high school. There were quite a few songs played that I definitely remember doing in jazz combo in school!! FUN!
