Morning is mocking me

Here's a good quote from Ulysses: "Shakespeare is the happy huntingground for all minds that have lost their balance." Joyce smashes a lot of words together like that.

Campus is dead again. It's still insane to me that we haven't started second term yet. The quarter system is the way to go.

Maintenance man came in yesterday and replaced my bathroom light. It was a bit odd. He was nice. I didn't know he was here though because you can't hear the doorbell if you're in the kitchen. I was doing dishes and I just hear someone saying "hello?" in the hallway. My room wasn't in too much of a state though.

I've watched quite a few movies the last few days. I regret watching Never Been Kissed again. I hadn't seen it since it was new, and that was probably the only time I should have seen it. And then I watched Hugh Grant on Inside the Actor's studio which led me to watch Notting Hill, Four Weddings and Funeral, and Sense and Sensibility. All foofy movies. I know. Last night was Girl with a Pearl Earring though. I didn't know that Colin Firth was in it. We all read the book, and I remember Whit wanted Mom and I to watch it with her but we never did. Or maybe they did and I just didn't. Anyway, I normally don't like movies made from books, but Colin Firth is one of the most attractive Englishmen to ever be on film. And yeah, I even fancy him with long scraggly hair. Pride and Prejudice might be tonight's viewing.

I'm not buying lettuce here anymore. Waste of money. Cabbage all the way.

I think I'm going to buy my ticket home next month. They tell us not to until we know when our last final is, but we don't find out when that is until finals are almost starting. I don't know though. Tuesday two weeks before is the best time to buy right? That makes me nervous.
