Whee update things~

I have had an interesting day. Just...interesting.

To start, I was totally not the only person who didn't pick up the second reading for rhetoric, so we just have to do that for next class. Not bad~ I have three more reading notes I need to turn in before next Monday, and if I do one apiece on these two readings and then one more on our next reading I'm set. Good times. The people who I've been emailing about their papers they presented at a conference are starting to email me their papers (one of them even asked for a copy of my paper after I finish it), and after reading a ten-page work on the effect of icon use on LJ I am no longer scared to write my 15-20 page paper. Dr. Goodman told me to think of a question I wanted to answer and base my paper around that, and the question is as follows: How does one's situation (in the case of my paper, the website on which one is posting, and situation including anonymity and knowledge of audience) affect what one says and how one says it? I think I can poke around a bit more, but I can answer this pretty well. I may have been flipping out for nothing, but I'll be reserving judgment on that until after I write this thing.

My 2 pm class was cancelled, so instead of doing the responsible thing and going to the writing center to do homework, I went to the writing center and did a few tags. I still need to figure out who to thread with Flonne...I'm thinking either Rion or Sasuke. |D (I still have not started on the paper for this class, by the way, but I've hit my |D apathy stage concerning it. Good times.)

My Shakespeare class went well. My proofreader said I need a stronger conclusion for my essay, but since I pretty much have *no* conclusion I kind of already knew that. Other than that, she really liked my essay, and I've always considered her one of the really smart people in the class so I guess that's good. |D My final paper for that class still needs a lot more research, but I'm feeling better about that one too.

Also, my upcoming test in that class? Is on Hamlet, Othello, and Lear. My immediate reaction was, of course, "keep it gay, keep it gay, keep it gay."

Dinner was fantastic. My roomie found what has to be the best pizza recipe ever, and we ate like queens~

We also had a short sorority meeting today, since it's Initiation Week and we're meeting every night to really get the new members into everything, culminating in Initiation on Friday night. We're supposed to go laser tagging on Saturday to celebrate, buuuuuut I can't really plan that if nobody emails me back about it, so we'll see.

...I really miss my big. I guess now that we're doing big/little reveal on Thursday and I'm not taking a little of my own, I'm really thinking about it. I wonder if I can swing plane tickets to Texas anytime soon...

But yeah. Sorority, yay :D

And I finally wrote something not school-related for the first time in forever. I'm pretty happy with it. :D

I'm glad I did it before I watched Heroes this week, though, because man. We had some incredible back story, and I ship some stuff, and people die, and it was a hell of a cliffhanger. I would ask if it's next Monday yet, but next Monday is when my History paper is due, so I don't want that quite yet.

And finally, I hooked up the PS2 and assembled my pad. I have no excuse not to get back into my daily DDR workout. If I fail to report in on said workout, somebody please yell at me. :D

Aaaaaaaaand after a post that I originally thought was going to be a short update but is quite obviously not, I am done for the day.

...right after I upload Christmas icons. It's getting close to that time of the year. :D

OH. ONE MORE THING. holiday_wishes. DO IT, FOLKS. :D

Hey you. I would have called you if I saw this earlier. I miss you too. I can hardly believe it's been over a year since we've seen each other now. It's flown by so fast, but I often think of you and wonder how you're doing. To be honest, I really hesitated to take a little sis my senior year because I didn't want my little to feel abandoned. But I eventually came to the conclusion that I would because I would make it a priority to be there for you in whatever way I could. So even though I can't be there physically, know that you can always call, email or IM me. I've also wanted to call you several times, but I didn't want to infringe on your phone minutes. Nevertheless, I hope you don't feel like I'm so far removed from college that I'm apathetic of you. You're one of the few people I can say that I would go to any measures for or drop whatever I'm doing to help. I feel very blessed to be your big. I'll give you a call later tomorrow if that works for you.

Love,
Di
