This Week

I would like to think that I'll get another blog in before I leave, but I decided I would do a general update on my life right now. For the first half of the week I did a lot of shopping with my mom. As of yesterday, I think I got just about everything I need. There are still a couple things on my list, but nothing I am freaking out about. I guess I should be freaking out that I don't have a backpack, at least one that isn't held together by duct tape. Today I was mostly lazy. Liz spent the night last night and left early this morning and I ended up sleeping in far later than I intended. I wasted away the morning watching an old version of Pride and Prejudice that was on tv but got bored with it toward the end and wandered off to do nothing. Then I spend the afternoon watching The Andromeda Strain on tv after which Kelli and I made it just in time to see the last matinee of The Princess Diaries II. I liked it, so did Kelli. Go see it, great princess movie. Back at home I started to try to pack. I got a very little way and then could go no further since we don't have boxes or those bags that shrink your clothes. So I started a load of laundry and then wasted the rest of the night. A very nothing day indeed. Now I'll have a punishment of a day tomorrow since we leave Monday morning and I have plans for the whole weekend. Saturday there is going to be a TPCS alumni reunion picnic, then I may go see the TPCS production of The Phantom Tollbooth and after that my friends and I are going out to dinner. Sunday is church and then that evening a small going away party for me.

I hope I can get to the park before I go, and I want to spend more time playing with my dog Lucy. It makes me sad to think that she'll get to her old age while I am gone at school these next few years. I don't understand why dogs live such short lives. I want to spend a good amount of time with my bird Sanka too. As much as he drives me crazy I am going to miss him. I stress about him like he was my own child.

And that should about fill you in. I'll try to blog once more before I leave and I'll blog as much as possible while I am at school.
