Like magic

Not having class on Mondays is like magic. When you normally lay on the couch hour after hour on a Sunday watching Lifetime Movie Network, you would feel bad about not doing any of your readings. With no class on Monday when EVERYONE else is in class, it's like you have an extra free day out of thin air to get all the shit done that you didn't quite get to on Sunday.

Vwuah-la!

how do you like them apples?

You know you're digg'n your classes when you just stand for 15 min in front of your department section at the book store debating buying more books than are on your syllabus.

First day of school was a success!!! Looks like finals week will be a breeze with only at the max one final during finals week- (ON MONDAY!)

I love my classes (all of them so far...) and it just seem that everything is fitting together!

Everything seems in harmony with me graduating in May and I have to say it's a pretty cool feeling.

- or maybe I'm in such a good mood because my class for tomorrow is canceled and I'm about to have a 4 day weekend and it's my roommates bday weekend. Bring on the fuuunn please :)

oh yea. and we have a new pres. --> :)

O Winter! Ruler of the inverted year, I crown thee king of intimate delights, Fireside enjoyments, home-born happiness, and all the comforts that the lowly roof of undisturb'd retirement, and the hours of long uninterrupted evening, know.
William Cowper (1731-1800)

Why hello there, 2009 :)

Resolutions:

1) Make it through 2009.

I began to read my new years resolutions to my little sister and she started laughing after I stated my number one.

That sounds like something from a movie... Like a very depressed person making their resolutions: 1) stop smoking 2) lose 50 pounds 3) Make it through 2009.

I chuckled when she said it and thought about what I really meant when I wrote that as my first goal. I still stand by it, and it's still on my list but not in a negative way. It's there because I know this year is going to be so f'n hard, scary, emotional, intense, etc...and I intend my make way way through all of it- and I'm SO excited for it it all.

The rest of my goals pertain to things I need to do in my last semester of college, a creative project that I've been wanting to start but haven't, taking care of myself como siempre, and a couple mind frame switches. Those are the hardest to do because it's not an easy check off the list- but I'm going to give it a shot because my year will be better If i can get my thoughts on the right track in a few areas.

Yay for New Years. I reflected back on 2008 before I made my list for 2009, and I have to say 2008 was a pretty amazing year and I love being alive.

okay sappy mushy aside- break has been treating me well. A lot of time with the family has been great, and the Holidays always have been and always be my favorite time of the year. Right now I'm reading The Fountainhead, and am falling in love with Ayn Rand's ideas all over again, and with her protaganist Howard Roark. She is becoming my favorite author.

As for music my newest addiction is Human, and could listen to it over and over and over again- and I do. My favorite lyrics are...

...And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes
Clear your heart...
Cut the cord

Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?

Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance,
They always did the best they could
And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye
Wish me well..
You've got to let me go

Salud, 2009.
