well. this is depressing.
thought I was oh so computer/social networking savvy; i was oh so wrong.
so, hey blog:) nice to see you again after a month, or two.
haha, ohkay, wait..I actually feel bad. uh..sorry blogspot?..this is just weird.
back to being semi-normal, ha--naturally, lots and lots to update. plenty i could bore you with, i'm sure, but also plenty to be pumped about.
so far escuela es fantastico, pero (okay, i'm not actually even taking a spanish class..gotta let that one go) i'll repeat:) Classes are great. Friends are encouraging. God is rocking me. Schedule is nuts. Mass comm is awesome! My house is toasty as heck-- actually it's just humid after all the rain. And york peppermint patties are my new best friends. Pretty great, huh?
i'm sitting in my norm libe spot (libe=library for those of you who have forgotten my constant abbreviations..of every word. ever.).. supposed to be writing this Colonade article. It's actually a really sweet feature article, so I'm pumped to write it, buuut this is the part where I must go through all the interview recordings and type up their responses. Think it'd be possible to stream music in behind their talking? because i'm really wanting to listen to some Colbie Callait right about now.
Actually, I'm really wanting to procrastinate in any way possible.
aaand jacob just came into the libe so now getting work done is toast. no offense, jake.
i'll go ahead and list some joy, i'd say it's time:)
