apparently, blogs don't write themselves.

so, the downfall of having time on my hands again, is that, alas, I have no excuse not to have my life in order. In light of this, I have spent my first three days mock free attempting to do just that. It started with WWIII, also known as the great tuesday cleaning extravaganza. I won. My room looks nice, my brother put a picture of it as of last like thursday on kazzamalla.textamerica.com and a rather creepy looking guy commented on it, tellnig me to clean my room. I was not aware of this until Tuesday post-cleaning.

I'm not sure where to go from here. I missed more class this week than the whole 7 weeks before it, but it felt nice, and except for 7 weeks of Realism reading, I feel okay in my classes. Only okay. Unless you count my laughing fit in Donald Lamb's class yesterday, i must have been feeling great... regardless of my just short of mediocre midterm grade.

I miss my team, is that pathetic? I mean, 5 of them I have been spending 10 hours plus a week with since October, and the other 3 I love/miss no less. Amalia sent out the most team laser loving e-mail ever yesterday. it basically brought tears to my eyes. and I woke up to a nice rundown of our performance as team laser by delightful rob, which was quite commendable when put as he did...
"We competed in 12 rounds this year:
-We went 13-10-1, BUT
-We only lost both ballots TWICE
-The two rounds we did lose were to Drake (who went 8-0 and won their regional over the weekend) and UIUC (who won our regional last year). And then, to make it even more impressive, we split with Drake atLoras. So UIUC "A" is the only team in the country that escaped TeamLaser without losing a ballot.
-We had three rounds against teams that qualified for Gold (2 againstDrake, one against Loyola) We went 2-4, didn't lose any ballots by morethan 4, and actually had a +5 point differential.
-We had four rounds against teams going to Silver. We went 3-5.
NINE of our ten lost ballots this year were to teams going to a national tournament, and we lost them by an average of 5 points.
-We don't hate each other!"

I am so impressed. By them. And I think that is all on that subject.

I am currently in the midst of a five hour shift at henry crown... by myself. I came in early to cover for Molly, and have all of my own shift, and all without Molly. It is terribly sad. She called me as she went through Kalamazoo yesterday on the train on her way to Flint, she now knows the glory that is the Zoo. Or, she's seen it from the tracks. (I had "train tracks" and then I took out "train" and I was like, oooh, that sounds hott).

I fear with a five hour shift I could make this far too long, as I am quite bored, but I will do some latin and save myself. not in the jesus sense. in the from making a way too long blog. cause that makes sense...
