midnight snack

my weakness is salt and vinegar chips. i also ate a lot of marshmallows and that's probably gonna suck in the morning, but tonight it is perfection.

gilmore girls is so good to my heart. boys don't get it, and they don't even have to. it's total brilliant girl language. it's been a while since i've sat down and watched gg, and the disc i chose to watch tonight (season 3 disc 2) began with a halloween-decorated stars hollow. i am a happy happy lady.

the next few nights of mine are filled up with various halloween-type activities in addition to my other evening activities. pumpkin stuff, music stuff, dancing costumey stuff, football stuff... do i have time to buy a pumpkin? do i have time to go to ram's rack and make a costume? these things i do not know. but either way i'm excited and also awaiting saturday night when i can do the following:

- buy lots and lots of chinese food (sesame chicken, rice, veggie lo-mein, eggloll)
- rent super mario brothers, high school musical 2, and casablanca
- commence couch cancering, hopefully with company of some sort though that is not necessary to commence happy couch cancering

it snowed

yesterday i said this little barely even articulated prayer... basically along the lines of "Lord, you know you can make it snow. I'd love that."

and it did. it snowed here all last night and all day today and this morning i listened to jazz and wished i had adequate winter wear for this weather, cause i don't, and that's stupid. some girls look totally cute all snowed on and bundled up.... the Lord did not grace me with that blessing and i basically turned into a watery-eyed rudolph nosed NOT cute disheveled frozen person.

i need to catch up on homework. write poem, make copies, write craft techs, think of proposal....

XANGA!

so, katie and i watched high school musical tonight after ear candy practice.

we ate chips and salsa and cookies and milk and i painted my nails "big apple" red (OPI)

and we started talking about mat kearney and how i met him with fairy wings on, and she asked to see pictures. where did i have these pictures stored? i thought to myself. XANGA. XANGA!!!

i have been a "blogger" from a long, long time. check out these gems that katie and i rediscovered tonight:

dating all the way back to September, 2003

wonky wednesday

oooh today. today today.

i was late to dance (again) and was prepping myself to walk in embarrassed and all... and as i approached the door i thought to myself, "what if by some amazing twist of fate class was canceled today? no, no, it won't be." and not a second later one of my classmates walked out of the building saying class was canceled. awesome! so i had a leisurely study time in crossroads while waiting on my spanish class.

that was done at noon, and here i am at two, still on campus and enjoying a free afternoon. i...

ate salad and soup and half a grilled cheese at the light side of welbourne.
decided that i should throw a tea party and everyone who comes should dress british and talk in british accents. my friends approve.
sat and chatted with a friend about stuff i've really been struggling with this semester.

i think i might take my compy and record some stuff in the music building. i'm dying to get away for a little while.

that's just it. i'm unsettled although it's a pretty day outside and i haven't much to do. my poetry has been all wonky and my mind has been all weirded out. i have a research proposal due tomorrow and i'm searching for something i actually would enjoy researching. hello, passion? where'd you go? i'm itching to get out of here for a while, to do something meaningful. there is a boy sitting next to me at the coffee shop and he is beating his pencil on the table in an annoyingly loud rhythm. to my surprise he does not, in fact, have headphones in.

after writing and deleting a giant portion of what i think i need, i say with assuredness,

i need to spend some time in God's presence.


listening to:
copeland - you are my sunshine
death cab for cutie - transatlanticism

drinking:
vanilla steamer with whip

wanting:
my glasses
