Some good news...I think I might be getting all A's this semester, which is freaky weird and unexpected. Usually you have to pay for A's in blood at this school (three times more blood for out of state students).

Also, the Malecha's moved to Libertyville!!!!!!! For those who know me really well, these are the people my family packs up to go see twice a year in Williamsburg, Virginia. Hence I have been to Williamsburg about twenty times. I AM Colonial history. But seriously...it was a fluke of biology that they weren't part of our immediate family. So now they are! And my mom says stuff like, on Easter morning when my sister and I are home, we're going to make a big breakfast just for the seven of us. Yes, I now live in a family of seven. They actually have a town home on Golf until they can find something better, but visiting them just got way easier.
Ok, sorry to babble so much about that, but I am very excited to have them there.

On a related note, Brona Malecha is from Ireland and her look-alike sister Sandy lives in Dublin. I have met her only a couple times, and now she tells Brona that she will pick me up from the airport when I go! Not only that, she wants me to pack up a box of stuff I want when I'm there that I can't carry and ship it to her so I can have it...then box up any extra stuff I buy too and she will ship it back to the States at the end of my trip. How cool is that?! I am way spoiled.

Also, Gu Ho (the Korean housemate from a few posts ago) moved out! I never confronted him and one day we stopped hearing him and found that his closet was empty. Then, about a week later, I found him walking into his new house...only a block away!!! And farther from campus at that! What a mess...

So I really want to date someone and then my housmate's 26 year old cousin asked me out and I said no. I feel like a picky snob...but, well, he was weird. Now I'm wondering when I will finally reconcile this want to date someone and these crazy idealistic standards I hold them up against. I don't get it.

I think that's it...just waiting for warm weather now...it snowed here on April 1. No joke. Oh, and I desperately need a summer job.

Now for responses:

Val, someday famous celebrities will get special, exclusive shopping time in your boutique. Yes...famous celebrities...and me ;o) Hope all is well. (Hmm...is "famous celebrities" a bit redundant?)

Jocelyn: Huge congrats on Wash U!!! They waitlisted me; you are so much cooler! :o)

MC you are killing me. It's like you're living my European dream. Which is probably your European dream too. So I guess it's not all bad. How are the hostels? A mix I'd imagine...stay safe!

You ok Justin? Some days I read that your diabetes is angry and others that you are bummed about grad school related things. Hang in there tall man.

Jeff - friends who are girls are cool. Not what you were looking for, I know, but cool nonetheless. You probably know that too, but just my initial reaction, so yeah. Oh and big congrats on Japan!

Eric. I feel for you. Try to go to bed earlier is all I can say. Still, with the time schedule I'm on I'm not sure I would ever make something at 9. At least not consistently. Good luck.

Hello and love to everyone else who reads my blog that I don't always know about. Sketchy blog readers... :oP

Take care all!

I have three papers and an exam due tomorrow and am perhaps experiencing one of my most unproductive moods since coming to college. I have no idea what brought this on, but to motivate myself I am thinking about registering for my final semester as an undergrad on the 1st, seeing Ben Folds on the 3rd, attending Easter brunch at my Uncle's house on the 11th, and far in the future but oh-so-lovely, flying to Europe in June. That's all very exciting, I know, but right now I feel ill.
