Aaaaah I don't wanna leave!Once E goes back, my grand plan for Bahamas (it never really materialised in the first place anyway) will have evaporated. I shake my fist, in the style of that annoying baby in
Family Guy, at SP06.
Spring 2006 means a lot of things, even before it's begun.
> California dreamin' in SF before school starts
> Greek pledge week: Freshmen go bacchanal.
> Winter wrath: Dark days.
> Spring Break: Freshmen go bacchanal.
> Slope Day: Cornell goes bacchanal.
> Dragon Day: Architects and Engineers compete to see who can set the Arts Quad on fire first.
> Eurotrip: This is definitely where I parked my car.
One looks forward to the little things in life (:

Chris-ism: (On New Year Resolutions) "Nope I don't do nice."
CW-ism: (After being caught in the rain) "I now have 2 soggy breads."
Pet-ism: (After ES points out that there are too many exceptions to a "scholar = smart" generalisation) "So am I talking to an exception?"
B-Grade ES-ism: "Are you blinded by my BLING?!?!"

BON VOYAGE to
Loke,
Cat,
ZH and
Double-T. You will be sorely missed (Hm I seem to be using that phrase a lot nowadays, but I mean it).
After reading
One Hundred Years of Solitude, I am so taken with the idea of South America for Spring Break. Not that Garcia Marquez is the greatest plug for Rio Carnaval (or for Machu Picchu for that matter), but I seem to be easily taken with ideas of visiting places once they're even mentioned in books. Like one line in the
Iliad about Ithaka, Greece, and look where I go to school now. It's more of a frivolous fascination than anything else, because there is so much more to that book and it's absolutely beautiful GO READ IT.
And more - USD321 for exorbitantly-priced SP06 textbooks, another USD1000 for housing rental payments, and miscellaneous expenses (namely bursar bills from Cornell that make Mic.rosoft look like Sharity Elephant), and I am so broke this year before the semester even starts. Tell me I don't have USD2000 to spend on a trip to Rio de Janeiro.
Oooh so I actually get to read Le Petit Prince for French 122! Cool, I think.
