Seeing as it's 4:16 and I have been laying in my bed for a good hour plus, I've given up trying to sleep. Time for a good old-fashioned update.

SO!
Monday was my birthday, hip hip hooray! Wonderfulness... Sam, My mom, and Miriam all got me flowers because they love me :-). Also, sam got me Casablanca and Under the Tuscan Sun... whoohoo! but now he has to watch at least Casablanca with me. mwa ha ha.

aaaaaaaaand... I've been really busy. Go figure. But I honestly think things should calm down soon? knock on wood. seriously... I don't have another midterm for a good weekish, and I'm just slightly behind in my classes. like, it's past the point of me having to spend entire days on just one class; now I can spend parts on different classes. which is good. Yay for non-marathon World Systems reading.

SPEAKING OF WORLD SYSTEMS... midterm was AWFUL. 75 minutes to write 5 short answers (short meaning 1 or 2 paragraphs... bleh) and two, yes TWO essays. GAH. I almost died. Debaters will appreciate the fact that I actually cross applied in my second essay. Seriously. This is what it looked like:
blah blah blah treaties were important. See my answer to part one number 6, pact sunt servanda. as you can see, this greatly blah blah blah. DEATH. hopefully you're allowed to crossapply on midterms ;-).

let's see, what else has been going on. oh yeah! I have a pledge baby now! I'm very excited but I'm not going to say anything about it because just on the random chance she could read this it would ruin the fun of the secret!

speaking of KD.. I talked to Saira today on the phone for a good hourish. it was fun! She's a great person and I wish our paths crossed more often so we could have tons of crazy fun!

There is really no reason I shouldn't be tired right now. I exercised a lot today, I was tired this afternoon, I don't know what is going on. sooooooooooo confused. LET ME SLEEP. any ideas for drugs I can take to knock me out? ;-) just kidding. oooo! maybe there's a change in the weather and it'll warm up! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA (and so on) yeah.

la la la. Alison is bored. she needs to go to sleep. I guess I could be using this time to be productive. hmmmm. maybe I'll go read. woohoo!

Party on Wayne
