I'm going to Marrakech for spring break. Me and Mikhail. I am super excited even though it's a bit pricy but oh well I need to go and take care of things for my internship and I want to see Youssef. My mom was so against me taking Mikhail with but tonight she said, "You know if you're serious about going let's see if I can exchange the condo for a week in Marrakech. I would feel better if I knew you were staying somewhere really nice." Yea ok she is a little too paranoid but hell am I going to complain about staying in a 5 star condo? Umm I think not. Besides it was going to be cool to stay with Youssef's family but hello no time alone and they're so weird about showing affection in front of people. I am not flying to the other side of the world to be kissed a couple times - have to make the most of it! I am getting really excited about the whole thing - and I only have to wait like 6 weeks! Tomorrow I have a new week of school and a new class. I have 7 classes this semester - i'm crazy I know - that's why this vacation will be awesome. I have a quiz to take online so I need to do that before I go to bed. Yay for Morocco!!

Today was my first day of the semester. I had three classes and none of them should be excessively difficult however the grades are based on only a few tests and a project so that sort of sucks. I have to take my CI (Curriculm and Instruction) Methods class - the class that teaches me how to teach english to non-native speakers. I can only take it this semester and it's only offered from 4:30-7:30 on Thursday nights but I am suppose to work from 3:30-5:30 Thursday nights too. My supervisor said I can go to class for 5 as long as my prof. was ok with me being late. I e-mailed her and she responded "I guess you have no choice" wtf? If I don't take it this semester I have to wait another year to graduate. Why couldn't she just be nice about it? Not to mention the books for her class alone are over $150. Niiice. I called Youssef yesterday and we talked for a little while - it was really good to hear his voice. I wish I could have called tonight after my bad day but it was too late by the time I was done with class. Tomorrow I have class at 9:30-1:30, Work from 2:30-5 and then class from 5-7:30 I'm tired already. Wish me luck.

I got a complaint that my posts lately have been very intense.
In the beginning was the Plan.
And then came the Assumptions.
And the Assumptions were without form.
And the Plan was without substance.
And darkness was upon the faces of the Workers.
And they spoke amongst themselves, saying, "It is a crock of shit, and it stinketh."
And the Workers went unto their Supervisors and said, "It is a pail of dung, and none may abide the odour thereof."
And the Supervisors went unto their Managers, saying, "It is a container of excrement, and it is very strong, such that none may abide by it."
And the Managers went unto their Directoers, saying, "It is a vessel of fertilizer, and none may abide its strength."
And the Directors spoke unto the Vice Presidents, saying, "It contains that which aids plant growth, and it is very powerful."
And the Vice Presidents went unto the President, saying unto him, "This new plan will actively promote the growth and vigor of the company, with powerful effects."
And the President looked upon the Plan, and saw that it was good.
And the Plan became Policy.
This is how Shit happens.

I spent the weekend at my dads - it was ok. Right now I'm in Milwaukee visiting my best friend and my sister is taking an admissions test at the university here. We are going to dinner soon. I got an e-mail from Youssef Saturday - it was so sweet. He called me his love, his angel. I don't know whether to take it serious or just brush it off. I really want to believe it even if it sounds crazy. I don't know...

fun weekend
i think a requirement of hanging out at msu is having a kick ass time, bc i havent not had one yet.

friday: hung out with craig and meaghan while janet and mel went to the chinese happy show. then had to park my car like way far from their dorm and it was fricken cold so i ran back. me and mel played some ddr like it was our job (her of course doing crazy shit at like level 9 and me still failing on like level 4s. but its still fun). tried to fix the air matress, but it seems to be unfixable.

saturday: dale came over, we went and played some bball, dale, danielle, mel and me. then we went back to janet and mels room and they went to eat and me and dale went to chinese, but i had like no money, so he got food and i ate like the shit load of food that janet and mel stole for me from the cafeteria. then we blew up the air matress, tried to seal of the hole, and put the ddr mats on the airmatress and played on that, there will be video clips soon coming, its pretty funny, i'll give you the link when i upload them. then me and mel went outside in the massive amounts of snow and threw a frisbee back and forth and dove for it, that was a ton of fun. then we were like add for a few hours and wrestled/tickled/slapped each other for a while. then went to get hot chocolate and other warm beverages from the library and on the way back played in the snow. then we rented a movie and watched it and went to sleep.

sunday:woke up and the clock said "3:12" and i was like "holy shit!" bc i thought we slept for like 12 hours. but really the clock was just wrong and it was really 9, so i went back to sleep. now im back in albion. the only down side was that hilary ditched us and went to chicago

I really wish you were here...
So, so you think you can tell heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
