on and on and on / we'll stay together yeah
what weekends are like.
The school year is wrapping up. I am such a better student this time around. I read ahead. I work ahead. I plan. Partly because i am balancing "work" and school. Partly because life is just a lot more secure. I don't spend a lot time doing all those things that a college student/young 20-something does. I don't go out and stay up late. I don't spend time obsessing about boys. I don't spend enormous amount of time on the phone/iming/ICQing.
Typing ICQing makes me feel old. I loved ICQ b/c it automatically saved conversations. I can still hear the "uh-oh" of a new message. Many "deep" conversation took place via my ICQ (and then AIM) that would have never happened in real life. I still like to go back and read some of the AIMs i have saved, but do miss the ICQ. They are like old journals, except with the other person responding. The funny thing, to me at least, is that when ben and i got together we didn't do any of the AIM/e-mailing/phone dance that I was quite use to with other relationships. Even in college, when people lived down the hall, a lot of conversations took place via ICQ/AIM. Ben and I, living 20 mins apart, just would see each other.
The cat is my favorite. well...tied with the dog. I'm up in the middle of the night (can't sleep. oh sack o' organs), and she came out with me and is up on the back of the couch (like the pic) snoring away/purring in my ear. so cute.
As much as I love condo life - the location, the view - living in a building with one inconsiderate unit makes one want a house. They aren't bad enough to really even affect my daily life, but their inconsiderate behavior to the whole building makes me angry every time i think about it. i should just not think about it. i really don't, unless i am in the common area and see the gashing in the wall, or the dented heater....
