TMBG, Piece Of Dirt
Well, I gave another speech in comm today. It royally stunk but hopefully I'll get a decent grade anyway. A few people in the class seemed happy that I was speaking on Libertarianism, anyway. I'm not entirely sure I agree with all of their policies, there are a few government programs that I'm rather fond of, such as schools and libraries, but on the whole it seems a better choice than the system we have now.
Then I went to lunch in the Bon for the first time in a while. Yuck. Very yuck. I had a bowl of cereal and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Yay for me. I could make that myself for much less than the $5 or so that lunch theoretically costs. I wish that they didn't make me buy a meal plan. Grr.
Then I curled up in bed for a while and let my thoughts wander. I don't really remember what I thought about, but there's something very relaxing about curling up in a nice warm bed when the room is cold (it was colder today, thanks be to the gods) and just letting your thoughts drift and not trying to accomplish anything. During the summer, I'd usualy spend an hour or two a day in bed like that before I'd get up. I miss that. Ah well.
Then I read for philosophy and went to class. We had a quiz, but it didn't really matter for me since I already have the maximum possible points from quizzes. I took it anyway though, just for fun. I don't think I probably did quite as well as usual, since I didn't study as hard. Such is life.
Choir stunk. I hate the song "Bassmaster". I want it to be erased from the history of the world. We're performing it Friday, and we're not even close to being ready. And the damn thing wouldn't sound good anyway, because it's just a lousy song. Call me a traditionalist, but I miss how choir music used to sound, before the weird-ass composers of the latter half of the 20th century screwed it up. Grr. Give me Handel, give me Beethoven, give me Bach, give me a bag to put over my head so no one sees me singing this...
Sorry. I just had to get that out of my system.
After choir, I grabbed a quick and crappy dinner in the Trail Room and went to a meeting of my comm group. Yippee. I'm just going to wing my part of the presentation tomorrow. This should be interesting...
Anyway. After that, I took a nap and my dad called. That put me into a bad mood, because he doesn't think I have enough computer skills to really get a job this summer. I don't know if he's right or not, but it wasn't something I needed to hear tonight. Then I got online and talked to Chris (C.) and Sean. That helped calm me down. I miss Sean. It's pathetic. I really hope I can somehow make it work for us to be in the same city for the summer. Hey, stranger things have happened.
