So, I haven't updated in a long time. Not much has happened. Well I took the GREs, and I actually did okay on 'em. So that's splendid news. I'm driving my roommate to take them tomorrow, and I really hope she does well too. I've watched her study for so many weeks I'll be almost as crushed as she is if she doesn't.

I got my lowest grade of my college career today, and normally I wouldn't advertise this but I dont really agree with it. It's on a 1-2 page DANCE class response to a show we saw. And really not a huge assignment, and I didn't half ass it, but maybe the powers that be decided I couldn't go through my entire academic career without getting some form of a C, and better to have it happen now than in grad school. That's the take I'm taking on it. It's a lesson in humility or something that must happen before I move on to bigger things. Only since I really dont agree with the grade, I don't think it's working.

However, in the class I most expected to be getting such grades (on much more important assignments), literary theory, I am doing quite well, somehow.

In other news, I just wrote a poem about my mother that actually really really got me sad. Which is weird, my own poems rarely make me sad, but this one made me remember something I had nearly forgotten. I'd post it but I think it would make a lot of people sad too, I dont want that.

In good news: I have a gorgeous senior ball dress!

In bad news: My lovely boyfriend chris has the flu and it got so bad that it affected his asthma so much that he couldn't breathe. His parents actually called an ambulence and texted me while in class, which made me FREAK OUT for the last fifteen minutes of class. Well, long story short they didn't take him because he's contagious and they dont want flu people in the ER. Luckily they were able to help him and get it under control at the house. I cant even see him though, feel like such a bad gf, but really everyone is telling me to stay away. Which I will. He'll be better by senior ball, but if i get sick after him, it will be bad news!!!!

Since it's rather late I think I'm going to cut this short, have to be up early after all to drive roomie to her GRE appointment because I am just so incredibly nice like that.

Bye!
