Aug. 20th, 2002 11:52 ami think yesterday can go down as just a good day.
i woke up in a fairly decent mood, and my mood stayed pretty good through the day.
i got my final over with. i could have done a better job on the essays, but i really wanted to just get it over with and my thoughts skipped around points that i wanted to make - if i was typing out the essays, i'd put my cursor in the right spot and type away, but using pen & paper, i skipped stuff if i couldn't figure out how to work it into the flow. and unless his grading takes a very harsh turn towards strictness, i doubt it was a problem.
funny moment from class - he informs us that instead of five bonus multiple choice questions, we have to list five things we learned from the class not mentioned in the existing questions. simultanously, me and one of the other guys in the class roll our eyes in exasperation and disapointment...and then try really hard not to laugh out loud at each other's reactions.
i got home shortly after seven & spent the evening between the coputer screen and the tube. i needed the chill time, though i did get dangerously tired at one moment and debated not going to the club.
but i'm really glad i went.
there weren't too many many people that i knew, and the place was boiling, but i was really in a mood to enjoy spending time by the people i do know & people-watch.
not drinking much (enough? *giggle*) over the past few months also made me really appreciate the guinness i had - both in taste & in effect : )
and i wore my new boots! i feel silly to be giddy over that, but pbthhhh!
now, i need to look into getting insoles for them, as they are a tad too big.
i think between the drive there, back & moments in between, its been the most time i've spent interacting with him... and it was good : ) with the house rearranged, maybe i'll see if the he and her are interested in doing a roomate brunch one weekend morning...
but yeah, i got home in a decent mood, and after lamenting about how i really need to do the dishes, went to sleep.
getting up this morning was rough... but thinking my time is 20 minutes fast instead of 30 helped...
oh, so i spent time looking over vacation packages.
i guess i'm not supposed to go to europe this fall - as much as i want to, stuff just isn't falling into place, and i'm feeling a little weary of tempting fate.
to make up for it, i'm hoping to take a couple of long weekends between now & the end of the year.
but, i still want to go somewhere tropical in january/february.
and there's definately some drool worthy packages. sadly, a lot don't fit into my budget.
and i'm feeling the need to book something now. to have something set in stone to rely on & be giddy over.
unfortunately, my preferred traveling companion,
tobi, can't commit to anything for a while, which leaves me with a bunch of food for thought regarding how i feel aboout waiting, about travelling alone and travelling with others. yeah.
and tonight i'm supposed to hang out with the buggy one. as is typical for plans with him, i'm skirming between looking forward to it and trying really hard to not be disapointed by a cancellation. i'm hoping for the best, though...
