what's going on? as Marvin Gaye might say...

I realized that I have two weeks to get all of my college applications done. I am sooo hoping I get in somewhere. It's driving me crazy. I still have to finish up my essay, and do my FAFSA. ARGH! I am trying not to stress about it too much. I have been listening to the Beach Boys a lot. Especially their one song, Don't Worry Baby. It's comforting at the moment.

I have also been watching Buffy. I am totally in love with that show. I am doing lots of things to keep me calm.

At the moment I am in the college computer lab. Full of students who are desperately trying to get their papers written, and their research done. Does anyone ever stop and wonder, when will this stop? I know I do all the time. My time is spent studying and working. All for a college degree so I can get a job...

When will this stop?

Goodness!

I haven't posted here in such a long time. I have been focusing on college apps. and school work as of late. It leaves me exhausted every day. I wish I didn't have to go through all of this. Yet, if I want a good career in politics and libraries, I have to get through this.

I've been watching quite a few tv shows on DVD. Buffy the Vampire Slayer, ER, Firefly, etc. All amazing. I just watched the film Radio Days. It had been a long time since I had watched it. I forgot how much I really liked it. Lovely little anecdotes and memories about one's childhood during the 1940's, all while listening to the radio.

It snowed during exams, which made it very distracting. It also didn't help that the resident hitler youth had to ask an incredibly obvious question during the exam. It wasn't very fun...

Now to watch some more television...
