I really like the Masque of Red Death.

I don't think she's on key, no, Atrias.

It truly amazes me how many people here write poorly. At a liberal arts school, for shame!

Posted: 4/21/06 at 8:16pm

Yes, I fully agree, provided that it had an imaginative director. :)

I'm doing German homework. Oh, how I wish I would have taken Latin. I'm also being oddly productive, if only because I know I won't be motiviated to do this the day after prom.

She just started a paragraph with "And the house itself is quite eerie and mystic."

*cries*

Word from the Wedding Singer orchestra pit (on Wednesday): "Oh f*ck."

Bad writing makes me want to cry. Fantabulous, keep lots of chocolate nearby to keep yourself from jumping out the window.

*claps for productivity*

I wish I had taken Latin, too, SD.

I finally got up the courage to begin the only paper I have not yet begun. oooy. The doctor I saw suggested that I dictate them to a friend who I ask to type. meh.

Some computers have a program (I think mine has something in Word) where if you have a microphone you can do voice training and dictate to your computer. It's kind of fun, but kind of a pain in the ass when it doesn't understand you.

I'm sort of considering taking Chinese this summer.

But I think it'd be just the wrong thing after a year of IB.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 8:27pm

You should try it. My friend who takes Chinese thinks it's the coolest thing ever.

I feel like using that would be like talking to the automated customer service machines that NEVER understand you. I'll just type myself.

I took Latin in high school (in addition to 4 years of a modern foreign language, the high school I went to required all students to take 2 years of either Latin or Classical Greek). It was easier than I expected, because it was so similar to Spanish, which I had been taking since 7th grade.

I should probably tidy up my room since my parents are coming by tomorrow. At the very least, I should try to conceal how large the Pile Of Non-School Books Purchased This Year has grown. Anyone want to take bets on how many books it contains?

Who the hell uses the word "mystic" in a college-level paper?

I'm really torn about what I want to do this summer. I wanted to go to a work camp where I had a lot of fun last year, but now the new youth minister wants to organize a trip to a conference in Ohio on the same week.

Plus, all these new "game" threads need to go back to IMDb, where they belong.

My TA emailed me this afternoon that my professor *WILL* take off points to turn in my paper late- despite the fact that because of *his* stupid rules about the assignment, I couldn't have even gotten started until this afternoon. I emailed him AND my TA about this 3 weeks ago and I haven't heard a thing from them until today. And yet it's somehow my fault that I'm not going to be able to turn it in Monday. He specifically says that if you need to work something out about turning in assignments late, do it far in advance, but I *did* do that and I'm still being punished. It's screwed up that he can do this. If he had emailed me back 3 weeks ago to tell me this, I would have had the opportunity to change things around, but *he* responded too late for me to do anything about it.

That sucks skittles.

I'm in such a weird mood. I'm ready to destroy my clock because the blinking lights are bothering me.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 8:34pm

She probably thinks "mystic" sounds good, or smart, or something.

These library books smell and they're dusty.

I just saw something that made me really sad, and I don't know what to do about it.

I have to make a phone call I've been putting off all day. After I finish this part of my paper, I guess.

*sigh* I have about an hour to decide whether or not to go out tonight. I know I'll have fun once I get there (meeting a friend and some others at a club for said friend's birthday), but I have a bit of a headache at the moment, it's cold so I don't really want to walk, but I don't think I have enough cash for a cab ride and the $10 cover. Eeeek! They're going out again tomorrow night... to a place that's closer to me, and it's only an $8 cover. Hmmm. But I don't have anything to wear tomorrow! It's a Mardi Gras-themed thing. Somebody make up my mind! Please?

[Atrias]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:16pm

Allie, do Canadians really resent Americans?

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:18pm

Allie, if you have enough cash, take some Tylenol, put on a coat and go have fun.

I don't know what the dresscode of this place is. It says "no dresscode", but I dunno. Jeans? I do have nice jeans. How can I dress up jeans without wearing my cleavage-bearing top (better suited for tomorrow night's outing!)? Or, I have pinstripe dress pants that I love. Too dressy? Oh dear. I need to get out more. I have no idea what to wear!

Uhm, I dunno, Atrias. I don't... resent you... Why? Should this be something I need to think about?

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:24pm

Either one, I think.

[gavrochegirl]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:26pm

I'm feeling particularly bored and gloomy today. And I actually want to go back to school!

[Allie]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:27pm

I think I'll go with the dress pants tonight. Jeans will be better tomorrow. And I'd probably have to wash them tomorrow if I wear them tonight. I'm a spilly drinker, oops. I know the birthday girl is wearing a skirt and sandals (despite temperatures below freezing, yikes)... Cab, or walk? I COULD probably walk, but it's very dark and late...

[Atrias]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:29pm

*shrug* It's what my history teacher said, Allie. Now I'll be able to laugh at her on Monday.

[Allie]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:31pm

All Canadians resent Americans? That's sort of a crazy generalization, isn't it? Dunno!

[Atrias]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:33pm

Hell, I don't know! She's nice, but she's not a very good teacher.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 4/21/06 at 9:45pm

I haven't heard that :-/

I'm sleepy and in pain. My mom's being nicer to me, though.
