Play it again Sam

Casablanca is a great movie. I definitely recommend it. Our teacher talked a little bit about all the famous quotes from the movie, and that one--Play it again Sam--isn't actually ever in the movie. I think that's interesting. I didn't mind out teacher talking about the movie today. Usually it's kind of like he has to and he's just pointing out things in the film we should have noticed and that we might need to know later, but today you could tell that he actually really likes the movie and was excited to talk about it. He mumbled a lot less and talked with his hands and made jokes. It was cool to see.

I've drunken 6 cups of tea today. I'm very awake.

I made quesadillas for dinner and smothered them in Tapatio. I also fried potatoes because the few I had left were started to sprout. I've never been able to make them like Grandma and I don't know what I'm missing. I really miss breakfast and Grandma's house.

I have five empty water bottles on my desk. I always say that I'm going to fill them up and reuse them, but then I forget to and I leave and end up buying another one. And I don't throw them away...

I decided to get organized yesterday. Not actually organized--my room is still functionally cluttered which is how I like it--but I opened this calendar on my computer and spent some time filling in my classes and clubs and trips and when things are due and when classes end and when all my breaks are. I get a whole week for Easter and a weird kind of combination of breaks for winter. Classes end on December 16th and then you have 3 weeks I think. Then exams start and go for two or three weeks and then you have another week off before second semester starts on the 30 of January. It's weird. Who's going to remember anything for exams after a month?

Dublin tomorrow! Maybe on Sunday too.
