I just somehow feel obligated to update at least once before we leave for Purdue. YES! Purdue. I think this might be the thing that gets me going out of winter and back into reality. Perhaps, that is anyway. I hate winter, it makes me crazy. I don't mind the snow and all that, but the lack of light or something, it freaks me out man. BAH! No one asked for that! I suppose that's what I get for living here. So yeah...
Um, yeah. Where was I going with that? This week has been great. I had no class yesterday (cancelled), none tomorrow (also cancelled), and then in printmaking Monday and today Michael and I made sure we got little to no (mostly no) work done. Today was spent working on my comic, getting to know "Ed" (we like to call him Justin-Erik-Derek, but anyway), taking a sanding field trip, calling roommates to get keys under control, and shooting rubberbands at Margaret (collateral) and Andy. Sure thing. We also talked about Alice biting random people. Michael was very impressed. I was impressed with the fact that our assignment is due not this Monday but the next, and with the fact that I've done nothing this week really. Some work yesterday and a 'meeting' tomorrow, but still. Field trips, etc. Isn't it lovely? I'm still waiting for that big kick in the ass I see coming at me...
So it's going to be interesting. I can't do goddamn FHS front layouts, what's up with that?! I got it last year but my mind betrays me again. How old are we? I did some good overunders last week after the five pound weight fiasco and am getting beam together. I really would like to stick beam and do well this year since even though I kind of hate it I am somehow kind of good at it (well, at least not super sucky, anyway). So now I just totally jinxed myself so I'll say, I don't care! I'll fall! What-EVAH. I would like to always do well on bars too but we KNOW how that looks (like shit). Oh well. I do what I can man. At least I have a fabulously choreographed FX routine, if I say so myself (sorry if I am stuck up D, alas...) and who cares about the tumbling. I'll woo them with my natural charm.
YEAH. Yesterday I was subjected to seeing Sleazen, god damn it. I was hoping to get by without that. He also knows about the Box Girls. What is UP with THAT?! Everyone! Get it together! Jasper knows how I work too, this is sad. I am going to Get IT.
OK, enough. I am going to go eat something if I can get this nail polish remover off my hands. EW. We need new milk too because ours went bad somehow, but I am not interested in running errands right now. Maybe tomorrow
Ciao! Take care. And Happy Hearts' Day.

Oh yeah baby. These updates are the best, when I have no want nor desire nor REASON to update, yet I do. It doesn't get better than this.
