it's cold outside cause it's october

Dag, Oprah is getting serious. She gave a very impassioned speech today on her show about how they need to rise up in the streets to convict child molestors. And she has a new, less homey-looking set. She likes to be serious.

And I like to procrastinate. I'll keep doing it until it burns me, but it hasn't burned me yet so I'm good.. I have to be doing a chem lab today but I'm going to wait until after YL and go to the library. But I'm really pumped about going to the library this time. I get work done there and I forget there's an outside world. My dorm room is sooooo the wrong place to try and do work. I get too distracted and my posture gets bad and I just generally don't like it. So Library, here I come!

I played Frisbee golf with YL boys on Friday. I'll tell you why it was funny. Reason #1: It's just for boys. And I'm a girl. Which really isn't that bad, because the rule isn't set in stone and I was bored and it's YL people who are easygoing anyway. Reason #2: It's for boys who are good at frisbee. I'm not good at frisbee. When I try to throw it, it never goes the direction I want it to. Reason #4: It's for boys who are good at frisbee and therefore have their own frisbees that they have especially picked for their goodness at frisbee golf. I had a dinky frisbee that I got from the California Museum of Science. So I was embarassed to show them my frisbee. Reason #5: None of the boys were freshmen from College Life. They were all upperclassmen who were already leaders and had been playing Frisbee on fridays for a while. There was some senior in high school there, but he was good and a boy and had a good frisbee. I sat it out on the first round because I didn't feel comfortable enough, but then finally started playing at about the 3rd hole during the second round, after drawing much attention to the fact that I was insecure and nervous. They were like "honestly, what's there to be nervous about?" They encouraged me and gave me pointers, so I didn't feel so insecure towards the end. Now all that lingers is the embarassment of the awkwardness of it all. I mean, I don't even know if they sensed the awkwradness. I've rationalized that the more awkward situations I go into and come out of relatively unharmed, the more I'll learn how to deal with them in future situations. It would've been totally awkward if I hadn't have even attempted to play. So it was only halfway awkward, because I sat it out at first. This situation haunts me because last night I had a dream that I was shopping for frisbees and couldn't find a good one. It was a stressful dream, for sure. I woke up feeling insecure but I'd forgotten the dream, so I worked to remember it so I would understand the random insecure feeling. So, yeah. It makes me laugh. I need another YL experience to cancel the awkwardness of this last experience out. And that would be tonight. Hey, I'm a funny girl-- I can joke my way out of many weird situations. Yay!!

Oh boy. I'm going home this weekend. I told myself I would wait until Fall Break, but I'm not going to give up a chance to see my big brother! That would be silly. I miss Will, and the family is going to see him on Saturday (if everything works out as planned), and MA people are coming from here to there this weekend, so it all works out very well. I also don't have a big test (that I can think of) that I would be studying for anyway. So, yeah. It's hard for me to look forward to things past big tests. Like I look forward to fall break, but I also can't relax until after my Enst 35 midterm the Wednesday of fall break. And I can't look forward to Christmas without realizing that I will be completely done with this semester (and all the exams and such that that entails).

bloggity blog blog bloggggg. I like writing in my blog but I forget sometimes.

yay for sweatpants and t-shirts weather! my favvoorritteee. I'm such a bum in the winter and I love it. yayyy!!!

in conclusion, my favorite part of anchorman is when ron's in the glass case of emotion. and when he's on the phone to ed and tells him that he's always been a good friend.

in for real conclusion, the human torch was denied a bankloan.
