I went to the doctor today. I'm going on the Pill to stop my horrible cramps.

I even got away with not having a pelvic exam.

Yay!

I totally forgot to say the very reason I'm updating.

I'm thinking of joining the Peace Corps once I'm done with school.

I have the best boyfriend ever.

Check out what Nick got me:

403 Forbidden!

That's right. I'm a gay robot.

Yeah, he also got me a bunch of cheese.

It's nice to have the books for my classes.

What did Rachel get for her birthday? C'mon, you know you want to know.

She not only got a bunch of totally awesome stuff but also a bunch of totally awesome Rene Magritte stuff.

How awesome? So awesome that she's not using a cut tag.


First off, I got this book:








(These are pictures from the publisher's website. It is a terrific book. It sort of explains his life and tells what he said about his works, trying really hard not to put meanings to them.)



Then, I got these totally awesome cards:


If I wasn't so tired and lazy, I'd scan them for you.



Anyway, I'm just Magritte-geeking.

Kelly, remember Julius Sumner Miller? Here's a site with some of his videos from the early 60's.

:: Music: William Shatner (who told him to make an album?)

I have an interview with Michel Pichot (my advisor and current French prof) and the head of the International Programs Office at 3 on Friday, February 10th.

Wish me luck.

I'll know if I am accepted by mid-February.

I really hope I get in. I just don't know what they judge it on.

You're like a lovely hallucination. You get me through my current occupation.
I am officially 19 years of age.

I love you all.

P.S. I googled the word "officially" because I'm tired and I wasn't sure I spelled it correctly. The first result: What Tolkien Officially Said About Elf Sex. Just thought that was interesting.

So, I was going to say that I was home and everything but I don't even know if I told you guys that I was leaving.

Well I left. My cousin (the one who had the baby 2 years ago so she could "trap what's-his-face") had her wedding this weekend. Ugh. It was bad and good. Mostly bad.

I'll tell you more probably never. I used to be so big on this Woohu thing, commenting on everyone's entries, updating every day, having a huge crush on Andy (speaking of which, we need to hang out sometime), but I just don't have time or energy.

I love you all.

Ignore the intro, click the cut tag. An anti-Bush text adventure!
I don't know if any of you have experienced the glory and darn good times that are contained in text adventures but you should try them out.

While you're pondering your further descent into geek-dom, read this totally awesome fake text adventure game that bashes our president! (taken from this blog which actually isn't this political most of the time every once in a while)

Today is going to be a long, long day.

One without lunch.

I'll update about my classes when I'm not tired/have time/think people care.

Girl things
My period came last night. Four days ahead of time.

I have horrible cramps and a class at 9:25 and one at 10:50. Then I have work from 1 to 5.

Oh, and we're all out of pads. And I can't find a tampon (not like I'd use one anyway). The rule states that if you use the last one or few, you're supposed to tell someone, HANNAH!

I think I'm just going to stay home. There's no way I can go anywhere bleeding and cramping. I'll go to work at 1 maybe.

Ug.

I don't know what this semester's going to be like.

I have math homework due tomorrow and no math book.

I have reading to do for my Cultural Anthropology class and my Principles of Business Management class but I don't have the books for those classes either.

I'm trying really hard to get by without buying the books. My family's going through a hard time financially and I don't want to ask them for money.

I'm going to go to the bookstore today and copy my math problems out of the book then see if I can borrow/read (while standing around in her room) my friend's books for anthropology. I guess I'll see if I can borrow the business book from a girl at work.

Or I could try to get by until next week.

I definitely need the math book though.



I'm stressing out.

An AMAZING Christmas tree story
When Hannah and I were at Schuler a few weeks ago, I bought this AMAZING Christmas tree that I thought looked pretty cool. In twelve hours, with magic water, this stuff happens! You can even grow an Aryan supremacy tree!

It seemed awesome at the time. Five bucks worth of awesome, at that. However, all my hopes were crushed in just a few minutes after my arrival home.

The tree had instructions on the bottom of the package. These instructions specifically stated that the tree would only last 3 to 4 days. Oh, that's okay. I'll just set the whole thing up on Wednesday night and hopefully it would last until Sunday.

So last night I finally got to set up my AMAZING Christmas tree.

Well, it follows that the "magical water" is actually monobasic potassium phosphate. Which I'm fine with, I suppose. I mean, it's not as magical when you give it a name like that but it's cooler. More cool.

Like all -ic-ium-ates, you shouldn't get monobasic potassium phostphate in your eyeballs. It is a buffering agent or a dietary supplement.

I actually didn't care what it was. (Did you see those side effects?) All I cared was that it would make my tree grow.

But it turns out that I should have cared because the monobasic potassium phosphate monobasic SMELLS REALLY BAD.

I have a very stinky Christmas tree (which I would love to show you because it's sweet but all the batteries to all the cameras in this house are dead.) sitting on my kitchen table right now.

9 o'clock marks 12 hours since it has been stewing downstairs. It also marks the point in time when we can put the star on top and sprinkle the glitter on it! Yay!


I love you all.

P.S. You should buy one. They're fun. I don't know if they're five dollars worth of fun but they're fun.

I don't know if it's a for sure thing but watch the Grand Rapids Press tomorrow. I'll put a link up if anything actually happens.

So. I'm trying to set up parental controls so my brother can't play WoW 24/7 and so the rest of the world can get on the computer.

But they make you answer the security question that you chose when setting up your account. Ben helped me set my account up so he chose the question. "What is your favorite activity?"

I can't remember what he put as an answer but it probably had something to do with sex.
