Whisked Away

Here is what is going on in my life: paperspaperspapersteststestspaperspapersstudystudystudytestsreadreadreadpaperpaperpapertesttesttestteststudytest…MIDTERMS.

And I know this is no dignified entry, but at least it explains my inactivity for the past while. There is a post coming soon about WATCHMEN!! But alas I am still too excited to write about it.

Meanwhile, at Chick University, the stress my friends feel is apparent on their faces; I worry that I too look terrible in this way. I am pretty sure that I do, because I am very pale, and have a tendency to acquire dark circles under my eyes when I have not slept.

The rough-and-tumble girls I found in September are becoming so serious about their work that I worry at some point, I will have to break up a massacre/fight/tornado of estrogen in the hallyway. I love them so dearly, and of course, you KNOW that I am just as stressed out and bitchy as the rest of them (there is nothing wrong with being bitchy as long as you don’t lose friends over it), in this last week before spring break I hope we are able to be as supportive to each other as possible.

Speaking of which, I will be home on Friday; which is the only thing making this hectic life I lead worth it. I shall fly into O’Hare, be picked up by my boyfriend in a horse-drawn carriage and whisked away to my fairytale kingdom.

Sort of. JD is coming to pick me up, and we are going to dinner, but we will inevitably end up at my house where I will be SO DELIGHTED to see my wonderful family. They are who I miss the most. And I don’t think I missed them this much before I returned from Christmas Break. Somethin in there has made this winter long and dreary; but it has also made me grateful for the loving parents and siblings I have waiting for me in Chicago.

Ok, break is over. Back to work. and more work, and more…good news: at Best Buy I was able to find a 640G Western Digital External Harddrive for $100! So that’s something.
