penmageIt's snowing! Eeeeee!
Okay, so it's not going to stick in the city, but still. It feels like christmas morning or something. I woke up to my roomate saying "it's snowing!!!" and then we foiund little presents in our room, keychains from the school. they even look like christmas tree ornaments ::grins:: Highly amusing, considering that this is a jewish school.
okie. bio test is today. I'm calmer about it, sorta fatalistic. i did well on the first lab test and the first bio test - so I think I can afford to screw this one up pretty badly - not that i want to, mind you - jsut that i think i can afford to. i've created all sorts of mnemonic devices that are literally the stupidest things in the world, i don't understand anything, and i jsut did lots of practice tests (he puts all his old tests on reserve in the library).
i got my polemics midterm back yesterday. i was convinced i had failed and was all ready to pass/fail the course, but - i got a 90! I'm still in shock - i feel like i pulled some sort of major scam - i literally bsed the whole test. ::shrug:: I honestly have no idea how that happened. miracle of miracles, i'm actually not failing out of college - i'm doing pretty well! (talk to me again after this month and my 5 papers and finals...) In any case. Cool.
i love love love love lvoe fencing with the biggest passion. i definitly want to be on the team next year, and according to judy (fencing teacher extrodinaire) i'm not hopeles, even though i have to unlearn years of habit of fencing with broken table legs in the living room with my sister. I'm actually good at it - i've never been good at a sport before - and i really enjoy it. it's tricky and complex and interesting, and you have to think of so much at once and i love it.b it makes me so happy. i'm sad we have so few classes left. we want her to offer intermediate fencing next semester, but i don't think it'll work out. we've been divided into poolsnow - we're fencing everyone in our pool - shoshana, miriam and liora and i are all in the same pool, which is cool and probably deliberate - i'm glad, because i have the most fun when i'm with them.
i have to go to the library today - annoying 'cause it's snowing, but ah well. i'll probably get another wonderful book to distract me from what i'm really supposed to be doing. that library has tenbookshelves of sf/f, and that's just in the hardcover section. it culd keep me occupied for days.
and that's my story.
