Well, according to my last post, no one reads this damn thing. I didn't get any emails telling me you do. Although, my domain name did expire, so I didn't receive email for about 3 days while I paid my dues and updated my info. Good thing I took care of that.

I hate peer groups for the editing of papers. The three other people in my group brought barely legible "drafts" of their paper and expected me to comment on them... and then when I asked for constructive criticism on my WELL POLISHED draft, all I got was "I liked it!" and "maybe instead of using the word ocean, you could use a synonym". Uhhh... yeah. See, I can do much better bysimply taking the advice I received from my professor during our required 15 minute conference. He actually had things to say. I hate people. I don't even know how to begin criticism on their work, which appears to have been written by a middle school kid. Okay. Enough on that.

I also hate people who think it's their duty to go around making other people feel bad about themselves for no reason. My boyfriend's "friend" is a complete asshole who talks down to him all day long (they work together). It makes him feel like shit and I hate watching him take it. The guy is condescending, rude, passive-aggressive and disrespectful. Sean is a wonderful person and I wish he had some nicer friends. Unfortunately, this guy is almost all he knows.

At work, I finished Alaska and Arizona and now I'm starting California. I guess Mr. Thruston didn't visit Arkansas.

I'm feeling a bit depressed lately. This semester is more than I can really handle, but I'm making myself do it anyway. I don't even have time for lunch.

I haven't updated this thing in forever for a few reasons. First of all, I'm busy as hell. Second of all, I'm not sure that anyone actually reads it anymore? The only person who mentioned my lack of updating was Laura. If you read this, shoot me an email and tell me!

I got an A in 4 out of 5 summer classes and a B in speech comm. (dumb cunt of a prof). So my cum. GPA at U of L is a little better than a 3.8 Not too bad. This semester (Fall) I'm taking 19 credits (!!) and working an internship at the Filson. Right now I'm working on cataloging a huge 19th century photo collection.

Sean and I are still doing wonderfully. He pretty much lives with me now and I love him very much. We went to the shore house in that tiny break in between the summer and fall semesters. It wasn't enough of a break, unfortunately. I also moved again recently (just a few blocks away). It was very stressful. Sean and I also got in a car wreck in August and my knee and mind are still pretty fucked up from it.

Okay... back to the books.
