I want beauty so bad. Not for myself. I don’t particularly care if I’m beautiful. (Although it is nice to hear it once in a while.) I want to see beauty. I want to live it. And, in the midst of these romantic musings, I insert a plainly clothed observation: it is difficult to type out the word “beautiful” quickly without making a mistake.
I can see it’s been some time since I really wrote here. Winter quarter starts in a week. I haven’t done anything!!! I suppose that’s the point of break…
I’ve hung out with people, but I haven’t seen any of my best friends except for Sierra, who I spent Christmas with. (That, BTW, was fabulous.) Kevin, Leah, and Matt remain unhung. Which is a good thing in some cases, an awkward thing in other cases, and a bad thing in the way I mean it. I am so weird. 😛 I’m working on my massive pile of books, and I’ve watched lots of Doctor Who. Lots of TV, period. And I just saw one of my old friends today – rather, a person I used to like. For two years. It wasn’t nearly as awkward as I was expecting it to be. In fact, it was barely awkward at all. We ate ice cream. I like ice cream.
I’m saying all of this in my head with a British accent. Doctor Who will do that to you. I think I’m slowly becoming British. I find myself wishing for tea and sandwiches and cloudy days. And a time machine.
I can’t wait for school. I really can’t. I have more this quarter than I did last quarter (BTW, I didn’t do all that well last quarter) and I anticipate it with great happiness and sense of purpose. I’ve got so much to do!!! I relish it. I like the word “relish.” EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!! That was a squeal of excitement. I can’t wait for Western Thought this quarter. We get to read the coolest things. And I also can’t wait to see my mentor and my pastor. I really am enjoying the Bible study.
New word, BTW, brought to you by Sierra: “swag.” Said this fashion: “That fella over there, he got swaaag.”
Also, I love the song “Starlight” by Muse. So cheerful at the beginning. Also, did I ever mention that Sierra was awesome? She is. Very awesome indeed. And I get to see her again next weekend because I’m going contra dancing with her for New Years!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

It had an ice chest in it. In my sleep-deprived state I happen to find this funny.

Aiiieeee!!! So much homework! And FYI, I am getting pretty tired of derivative functions that won’t cooperate.
Wow… it’s been so long… Derivatives have ceased to be a problem. It’s these bloody partial fraction expansions that are killing me now. And I’m going to be up all night. I really don’t want to be. But I have a chem test, and a calc test immediately after. It really isn’t fair.
HAHA!!! COFFEE!!! Bring on the math! I can do anything!
