Oh! Aren’t you proud of me? I lasted through the entire Valentine’s Day Weekend without making a single “my precious” joke! I *so* deserve Nutella for this.

Mmm, Nutella.

Wow! It’s probably going to end up taking me less time to write my Communications paper than it did to find my ads in the first place! This thing writes itself!

Quote of the Day, discovered while looking back through my communication notes:

“Monkeys are dumb. I had a very unpleasant 3 hours with a monkey once.” –Prof Messaris

Okay, I can tolerate our new Lupin. I might even go so far as to say that I’m pleased. But until you shave that moustache, I will still say that you remind me of the Duke from Moulin Rouge.

(And who is afraid of Jack in the Boxes? Can we make fun of them?)

This week just keeps getting better and better. I was able to attend the other math recitation, no problem, but things just went downhill from there.

Due Wednesday:

  • Film Noir presentation

  • Massive Java homework assignment that I just found out about today, as I had misunderstood the teacher’s announcement about the due date. I thought it was due a week from Wednesday, but no. Guh, if not for this, I would be able to handle the rest of the workload, but this is the last straw.

  • LOTS of extra work and catch-up for my Design class, because the work I did over the weekend is totally lame. And I’ll probably have to be working in the Fine Arts lab because Illustrator 9 sucks. How can Illustrator have gone through so many versions, yet not added so many crucial basic functions until version 10?

    Due Thursday:

  • Massive Visual Communications paper, which I have tried working on yet don’t know where to start.

    Thursday Night:

  • Trojan Women rehearsal, for about 2 hours. AT THE SAME TIME AS THE JAVA REVIEW SESSION, *deathmaimbitestabkill*. I’m going to email Jim and ask him if I can leave early.

    Due Friday:

  • Java midterm, which will require lots and lots of study.

  • Film Noir mini-paper

    Edit: Not to mention, scheduled perfectly to coincide with the WORST PERIOD EVER, REALLY BAD CRAMPS EVERY DAY THAT DO NOT RESPOND TO ALEVE, ONLY CHOCOLATE. I WILL BE FAT, FAT, FAT AND UGLY OUCH OUCH OUCH PAIN STAB hobble hobble *fallover*

  • Happy Birthday, Moni! *tosses confetti*

    Meanwhile, the day is already shaping up to be not very fun. I forgot to turn my alarm on last night, and I forgot to reset the time on my backup, so I ended up sleeping through my math recitation, which I really needed to go to, as Shimon most likely went through all the answers for last week’s exam, and I missed the recitation quiz.

    You know what? I think I’ll just run out the door and go to the 10AM recitation and hope they let me. I’m off!

    I can’t believe I’m getting excited about a film version of Merchant of Venice. But you know why? Mackenzie Crook* as Launcelot Gobbo and Andy Serkis as Tubal. EEE! Well, either Andy Serkis or Allan Corduner, whoever that is. Come on, IMDB, get your act together! I want to know if I need to start squealing or not!

    *Mackenzie Crook: “Ragetti” in PotC, the one with the glass eye. ♥!!!

    W00t! Ran into schoolchum Erin Finley at dinner and managed to convert her to Deanism. I’m definitely going to start wearing my button on my lapel rather than sticking it on my purse as I have in the past.

    In that same vein, “Hiya” asked in the comments about Dean’s intentions after Wisconsin. Roy Neil (Dean’s campaign manager) answers right here. Rumors of his demise are greatly exaggerated.

    Whee! Lots of signatures, and lots of ammunition gained to counteract negative slurs! And far less political apathy! And we may or may not have a few seconds of exposure on Channel 6 News! WOO-HOO! Feelin’ good!
