Random updates.

Tomorrow is homecoming! I hope you have a fabulous time and dance the night away. I brought you to your first homecoming. :))) We ate Subway with Paul and Kat and it was magical. Most random homecoming group/date ever. Love. I hope you dance skankily with a cute boy!

Totally killed my Roman Civ midterm. :) Slaughtered it, even. I wanted to keep writing, because it was so much fun. It would just list terms (such as 49 BCE) and we had to write facts about it. OBVIOUSLY 49 BCE was when Caesar crossed the Rubicon, officially declaring Civil War on Rome. akjdflksajfds. Roman history makes me giddy.

AND I have a moral dilemma. If I finish out Latin I would automatically have a minor in classics. How cool would that be?! But finishing Latin would require 8 more credits, and I'm just no that into it anymore. I really wanted to start Italian. Ah. Dilemma Dilemma.

I'll figure it out before next semester.

In unrelated news, we got back our first REAL college 5-page papers back in European Literature today. I was quite nervous, because I wrote my entire paper, then realized I read the question wrong, and had to salvage bits and pieces and create a new thesis. The finished product was slightly all over the place. But I got a B! And I'm good with that! I have to keep reminding myself that this is UVA, and it's supposed to be harder than Osbourn. Haha. My TA said I had really originial ideas, I just needed to support them more. I love my TA. :) He is a gorgeous gorgeous tall, dark, and handsome grad student (Thank goodness Christian does not read my blog) who pretty much speaks fluent Latin and Greek, and does so often. It's pretty sexy, if I do say so myself. My discussion class is like 10 people, and none of the rest of them talk, so it's pretty much just me and my TA having intelligent book discussion for an hour. I sort of love it. Hah.

Nothing else too exciting going on. My suite tie dyed last night. That was a party. The dining halls started serving caramel apples for some reason. I have band 4 days this week for long periods of time. I'm TERRIFIED out of my mind for my policy midterm and I've only spent about 10 hours studying so far. I predict all nighters in my near future. I also got reprimanded by some friends for not being social enough, since I opted not to go to a movie with them. But, the thing is, I WOULD be social if I enjoyed the people I was hanging out with. I need to find people I actually like being around, rather than people I'm just forced to be around at all hours of the day. Annoying. =/

Today one of my closer friends turned 20. That seems to weird. Like an uttainable age.

Right now I'm saying nothing of importance, so I'm just going to go procrastinate on studying some more.

  1. Awww. I was just thinking about my first (and only other) homecoming. <3!
    As for dancing skankily with a cute boy... 1. there are no cute boys at Osbourn who aren't taken and 2. you know how much of a nerdy dancer I am.

    GO FOR CLASSICS. Maybe you'll be more into Latin if you take more of it? Eight credits are child's play.

    I'm sure you'll find some people that you'll like hanging out with. If not, you can just wait a year and hang out with me. :P
