"Tears and fears and feeling proud"

That's Heather and I after the game - we forgot to take a picture inside and you know me and my pictures - I need to have something adequate to scrapbook with. The raptors got over 100 points so we got free pizza - I didn't want to cash in though because then they'd take my ticket and I need it for my scrapbook. It's just going to have to wait! The picture on the left is our first attempt at a picture, it just didn't cut it for either of us... so after many more attempts we went with the more silly picture on the right!!

I have no idea how I've found the time to post today but apparently I need to - it's cathartic. It's just going to get it all our for me and then I can just stop thinking and focus on women in Medieval Drama plays. My essay is due at 7 and I've got the proposal finished - I'm not worried and hoping to fit an hour or so nap in. If not I'll just crash at 8... tomorrow's an early morning too. *sigh* I was up at 6 today!! Tomorrow's essay of the day is children's literature and I'm discussing orphans in two children's books. Then Thursday's essay of the day is more children's literature and I'm comparing the novel Matilda to the movie - I'm looking forward to that one! Then it's friday and I get to go home and hopefully have a relaxing weekend. Maybe see some people I haven't seen in a while, we'll see. I think Lara and I have coffee planned for our usual time. Saturday I think Mique, Madds, Mike, Fiona, Ben and I are going into a little Hawaiian themed shin-dig at Heather's res. Should be ... interesting... I think the plan is to all crash there but well I'm not so sure I see that happening.

I'm still thinking about this whole summer thing. Thankfully I have until April 17th - I can barely process my thoughts for my essays right now let alone what I want to do. I can't wait until these next 4 days are over and I can find the time to sort out my thoughts/feelings. There's a whole other tension/stress in the house and though it may seem trivial and petty to some people it's very evident to others. When I walk into the house I can just feel the tension, it's very uncomfortable.

Linds and I have been talking things out a lot over the past week - it's been really good. I feel that my vocabulary has increased to ten times the amount. I keep throwing in words I don't usually use - it must be all the books and essays finally kicking in! I feel intelligent. haha. It's a little funny because some of them I'm not sure how to pronounce so Linds and I will sit there and repeat them a few times until we find the right way. We're such great English majors :P.

Alright time to start Medieval Drama ...
