.13o x with the craziness
Christ there's a lot going on. I have a paper due next week, and then at the beginning of May I have to give some sort of report on some sort of project on these two books by a Japanese author for The Retarded Teacher (she never gave us a rubric or any indication of what sort of project she's looking for), then May 16th some sort of paper is due on two Japanese exhibits which I have yet to go see... I haven't read the two books yet either. And within the next two weeks I'll have a paper for HONR267. And I'm still working on maintaining in-state tuition -- we gave her all this paperwork that implied proof that my dad's military but it wasn't explicit so she wouldn't take it.
I've started planning for the project I want to start, but I need for stuff to calm down first, and it doesn't look like it will until after finals, which start on May 15th. I also decided I need to participate actively in other communities (like
the_dead_muse) before starting my own. I mean actually writing. I read, comment, and vote actively for the aforementioned comm, but I've skipped entering two challenges since the first one I entered. I blame the craziness, but it's also just not knowing what to write, which is a pathetic excuse.
Danny's so sweet. I must not have posted it yet... we went to his favorite bar (while it's actually a bar, AKA not at lunch) for the first time Saturday night, and he got really drunk. He varied between being really sweet ("I've never had such a good time before, I'm so glad you're here") to being a total assface (dragging me downstairs to make a circuit of the bar and decide which chicks are hot and which aren't; complaining about how much he was spending when I gave him $60 to spend already and he chose to buy shots for this girl he used to hit on and her three friends), but it ended up great. We ran into people he knows and I'd met before there, and I'm glad, because it gave us people to hang out and play pool with, and for me to talk to when Danny went to make another circuit but I didn't want to hear about the hot girls anymore.
Anyway, back to the "Danny's so sweet" thing since it doesn't naturally follow from the above. Last night we were watching... 40 Year Old Virgin (the unrated version; I'd never even seen the original [don't hurt me]) and he asked me, "Will you stay with me forever, no matter what?"
"What, even if you cheat?"
"Except cheating."
"Yes."
"No really, I'm serious, will you stay with me forever?"
"Of course baby."
And "I love you"s and "I'll never, ever cheat on you"s exchanged, of course... It's funny because he really upset me the time he asked me if I'd been cheating on him, but I know him and I can tell he wouldn't cheat on me. Maybe one day it won't seem as clear, but right now? I can look at him and see what he does and says and I know he won't. I'm definitely more worried about him sneaking a cigarette when we're at a bar drinking, but he didn't Saturday night and I can be fairly certain he won't in the future.
Anyway... I can't wait to go home to him tonight.
Tomorrow I have to go to room selections for Writers' House at 4pm in the... Stamp Colony Ballroom I believe. I'm looking forward to it! Will I get to know who my roommates will be already? I don't know, I've never been to a room selection before. All I know is I plan to request a triple. It's less money. Then next Wednesday I'll be attending open interviews to work at the gym... and the Wednesday after that is orientation and Litfest for Writer's House.
There has also been craziness at work, but I don't feel like going into it. Suffice to say, Ibrahim is leaving us D=
