Ack, sorry I didn't update again for a few days. Things have been a little "distracting." :-)

By the way, just so everyone knows, that thing where you can read about and see pictures of all my friends is finally finished, for now. I'm sure I'll have to add more one of these days, but for now, it's as done as it's going to be. So go check it out or else when I start dropping names, you're going to be muy confused. And no one wants that.

I have so much work to do. I have a huge research paper due Thursday that's worth 50% of my grade. I just finally got the books for it tonight. I have three Soc papers due Friday, and a 4-page journalism story due tomorrow which I haven't started yet. I guess that's something I could be doing instead of this, but then, there are a lot of other things I could be doing instead of this. C'est la vie.

I am slowly, cautiously, delicately, and carefully sliding into a new relationship. In a way, that's sort of all I want to say about it right now, but then again, this person has been like, consuming my thoughts constantly for the past 48 hours so there's not much else on my mind. This is kind of where the journal thing turns stupid. There is all this that I want to say, but out of respect for the other person and keeping what's going on with us personal and private, I have to speak very generally about it. And I do have a lot to say about it. Well, I have a lot of feelings anyway, and I'm finding it hard to put them into words, but anyway. I have a really good feeling about it this time, especially since we're being so careful. So keep your fingers crossed, because I don't want a repeat of the X aftermath depression thing. No one in their right mind would want to go through something like that.

In other news, I've been having way too much fun with my friends lately. Going broke on my meal card has definitely been worth it, because everytime we all go somewhere together, it just makes me day THAT much better, you know?

You know those huge groups of girls who sit there in the cafeteria talking about relationships and sex really loud and laughing during the entire meal and getting death glares from all the nearby tables? Well, that was us yesterday. :-) Added to our usual group was Melissa and Roxy, and we were so loud. Hmm, speaking of loud. I'm at work right now and this dude is reading email or something and he's totally amused by it and he chooses to laugh very loudly so the entire lab can hear him. It was funny the first time... But anyway, I digress.

Karen and I have a new thing. We talk in quotes now. You know how when someone is talking, and whatever they're saying has a double meaning so they pantomime quotes with their fingers to illustrate the double meaning. Liiike, for instance, say you were at your dorm and you were planning on taking a shower with your significant other and you were telling your friends about it. (I know I have a sick mind, you don't have to tell me). And you say "Okay, I'm going to take a "shower" now. So, tee hee, you've been all sneaky. ANYWAY, that's what Karen and I do now, even though nothing we've been using the quotes for have a double meaning. We just use it in normal conversation. "Psst, hey Karen, I'm going to go "brush my teeth" now." Hehehe, it's fun, try it.

I guess next week is finals or something. So I should probably go study. Yeah, that's it...
