RANDOM THOUGHTS...
I'm sitting in one of the gardens at UVa near the lawn as we speak. UVa really does have a gorgeous campus--I'm glad it's finally warm enough (gasp I'm saying I like the warm weather!) to sit out in the gardens. Although I really really really don't like caterpillars so that's no good. This year I've really gotten to know some fantastic people and it gives me that warm "I love people" feeling. It also makes me love love love UVa. This semester has gone by so fast and "low-stressfully" it's weird.
Now seems to be a time of confusion--the tragedies that have happened in the past year and the realization that they happen so often all around the world...I don't know but somehow since being at college these things affect me so much more than they did in high school. And I know that they aren't even affecting me as much as they could or perhaps should. I'm sure part of it, though, is that what has happened recently has hit much closer to home--not geographically, of course, because the sniper, September 11th, that was all pretty damn close. More emotionally--the H-B community, the fact that we all have friends at Tech, that my parents went to Tech, that I was also sitting in a classroom when it happened with a professor whose daughter goes to Tech, that now it's even hard to trust my own classmates which I always did before...
The confusion and worries also come from the fact that I am probably going to Peru for four months and I have no idea what this is going to be like.
All of this confusion is coupled with the fact that I don't know what I want to do after graduation. Part of me feels guilty about worrying about it at all since it seems there's so much else more important to think about. Just a few minutes ago, a mom and her absolutely adorable little girl (half-Asian :)) walked into the garden. It makes me really pissed off that women have to make this decision--to stay home or have a career.
Time for my last Sociolinguistics class--

I had a good day today--talked to a lot people I really like, like Mimi, Cleek and Mr. Trella! Four more tests--for some reason not stressing, even though I'm like a week behind in uh...all of them. But I can't wait to go home and see my little kitten and further get my mind in order. And finish LOST. And see the members of the Sangha--Sarah G. you need to come with me some time. And contra dancing haha. :-D

4:06 pm - DO NOT CALL!
|
Serena & I put our number on the Do Not Call registry today because we (especially I) get a ton of calls from banks asking if we want to have a credit card, the usual, blah blah blah (thanks Bingjie for the advice!). This woman called me every single morning this week at 8 am, and Serena said I was asleep, and usually they don't call back, but she did EVERY SINGLE MORNING (did I say that already?). And then someone called today and Serena said I was busy :), so then we did Do Not Call. The end.
current mood: grateful

okay...so sex and the city is a good show. :) I saw my first "Sex" episode tonight, well, my first four, I suppose. Also, I don't know if you H-B kids remember him, but Tom Marron (class of '00 I believe) is in my Medical Anthropology class (i think he took a year off to go abroad for something cool). He's very cool. Talked to him after class a couple of days ago. Oh and Camille and I "HABIT"ed today...it was painful. (FYI--HABIT is an exercise class thing.)
I think that's it. Sleep and Chem 2morrow @ 9.
:)

Let's see, what's happened in the past couple of days.
Well, yesterday, the day before classes was mucho fun. Camille, Adam, Michael, and I went to the AFC and exercised (GASP!) and then, of course, we went to the Mellow Mushroom and pigged out on pizza and then went to College Inn for apple pie a la mode. ;) Also, I found out my Anthropology teacher, who is sooo cool, is our new Dean! He's a little intimidating (because he's smart/cool, etc.) but really, well, cool. Um, I had Chemistry which looks like it's going to be exactly like last semester except more new material than last. Spanish seems pretty good. I have my cool (I hope) classes tomorrow. Yeah, that's it I think. :) Oh and I get to go see my little cousin this weekend! Yay!

IS THIS TRUE?
You Are 12 Years Old |
12
Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.
13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.
20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.
30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!
40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.
