I’ve a got about 15 minutes before my next class, so I figure it’d be a good time slip in some bloggage. Im hoping that people who read this are the ones that miss me and are curious to know how Oxford life is. So all you curious people – Hi! I miss you!

I ended up pulling my first all-nighter wednesday to thursday. I say this without being proud or excited at all. I had a big project due for my 2D art class, and like so many other times, I planned badly for it and got it all done when night-before pressure forced me to. I’m really hoping I get over that, because college is going to kick my butt if I continue. Anyway, I worked until about 5:30am, slept for a bit, and decided that I needed ot sleep instead of going to calculus, which is at 9:05 am. I swear that missing calc was not an I’m-being-lazy, spur of the moment decision. I knew the lesson plans, that I wouldn’t miss anything I didnt know, and huzzah – I’m pretty sure I kicked butt on the quiz this morning! There is just butt kickin’ all around. Dont get worried, though. I’m the kind of student who pretty much never misses class, so I doubt this will happen again anytime soon.

Other than that, though, everyday life has been pretty quiet. Weekdays fall into a pretty neat routine of classes, meals (if i can get them), and then homework for the rest of the night. The peak of my social life on weekdays happens to be how dressed up I get when we goto Harris for dinner. haha. “we” being Rachel and I, Rachel being my roomate’s name. Cleared that up.

It’s rained the last few days, so I’ve gotten at least my $7 worth out of my umbrella. I’ve decided most of my shoes are worn out becasue everytime I come back to the room, my feet are all wet. Even though the rain has made it alternate between choking humidity and cold dampness, I still have really enjoyed the showers. Now I dont feel so bad beingĀ  inside all the time, because everyone else is too! I suppose I could keep rambling on, but I have to get ready for class now. See? I’m trying not to be a blogging failure.

Okay – Rearrange! September 4, 2009

There are big changes ahead. March 20, 2009

A series of big family decisions were made this week, and I am hoping that most of them will stick. Dates for my birthday party, graduation party, and mum’s visit are all picked out and ready to be set into motion. That reassures me; I like to have plan of action. If the plan must change or adapt, I don’t mind so much, as long as it doesn’t flip-flop around or change drastically multiple times.

Tomorrow, another birthday will come and go. Birthday’s are very abstract in my head.

In college news, I’ve heard from every college except Yale. In some sense, Yale is my unattainable future and the only school I’ve had doubts about. Making life decisions is difficult when there are still major variables. The suspense is exhausting, but I hope I hear something – anything – from New Haven soon.
