Yesterday I didn't have real class, but we watched A Star is Born for film--the original one from 1937. It's terribly sad. It was actually sunny after that so I went for a walk down in south campus again, this time with my camera. I didn't go back to the cemetery though. I wasn't feeling up for anything creepy.
When I was almost back to my apartment Nate sticks his head out of a window on the top floor and starts yelling my name. He basically told me to go up to whatever apartment he was in and they had extra food. Well I was starving and not wanting to cook, so I went. It was a little American party. It was Nate (one of my roommates if I haven't mentioned him before) and two girls from St. Mary's college in Indiana. It was fun. There was real Russian vodka and Jameson and Irish cider and Heineken. So yeah. I didn't leave the apartment today...
I ate vegetables for dinner. Terrible. I need to go grocery shopping again tomorrow for sure. What I really need is containers or baggies. I keep having to freeze everything and then thaw it all and refreeze what I don't use. So I have pork but was frozen, and now it's in the fridge so I can use some of it tomorrow. Anyway, "dinner" was at 4:30 because I was bored and hungry, so maybe I'll make a quesadilla in a little while.
My laundry experiment is going well actually. I might have to start ironing though--Madre you'd be appalled at the wrinkles going on.
We have apartment inspections next week. I think it's bullshit. They come in here once a term and make sure your rooms are clean. You have to make sure all your stuff is put away, vacuum your room, clean your bathroom and the desk in your room, clean the oven and microwave and counters and sweep. Nothing outrageous, but what do they care? And they can come in any time on a certain day to inspect. Even if you aren't there they can go in your room and poke around. People would be pissed about this at home.
Should I go to Rome or Paris with my week "study break"? I'm thinking Rome because I've never been there. But Paris has the Louvre...
I vote for Rome!! And if TEAM ROME wins, be sure to take lots of pictures for me :-)
ReplyDeleteTEAM ROME won! I won't be surprised if I fill a memory card.
