Mood:

(Yes, I just put OMG in the entry title. I've swallowed my pride. This blog is naught but a narcissistic procrastination device and I can use AIM-speak if I so desire, dammit).
So what have I been up to this Reading Week? Well, how can we put this...not reading. I have been working very hard on lab, and it's getting somewhere at last. This should be the last group project I ever do at Yale, which is cause for celebration in itself.
I almost wrote a Spring Fling entry like last year's, but I didn't. I had a wonderful time. I had been grumbling about the impending rain, but when the rain actually started falling during Ben Folds' set, it was beautiful. Then Ludacris came on, making fun of Yalies. Right away he asked how many of us had gotten drunk for the first time today, and he kept acting surprised that we knew his lyrics. By the end I feel that we changed his opinion of the Ivy League for the better. We're not all collar-popping prepsters and pretentious indie-nerds. Well, we may be, but that doesn't mean we don't know the Ho song. Then Tracy and Laura and I went and got more beer and Thai food and made fun of the universe together.
My procrastination skills have doubled since Finals and I last did battle. I've been hanging out on AIM. I've been running in the beautiful weather. I've been waiting for the new Bleach episode even though it's just lame filler for the forseeable future. I've been talking to my suitemates for hours about the least consequential of topics. I've been theater-hopping, library-hopping, bar-hopping, web-surfing, forum-lurking, all-around work-shirking. It's fantastic. Take that, Finals, I'm having FUN! I am HAPPY. I pwn you!
Speaking of happy, I had a divine asiago cheese bagel this morning at ABP. It was sooo good. I had not been eating that much for few days and decided I needed some soul nourishment, and it was like eating a cloud of baked joy. The cheese had somehow permeated the pores of the bagel and it was so soft and flavorful and tasty like woah. Then I found out it was only 360 calories and cost 94 cents. God exists, and, She is not vegan.
Finals schedule:
May 2: Spanish
May 4: Inca Culture and Society
May 8: Great Discoveries
May 9: Lab is due.
May 10-15: May Training in the pretty woods.
May 16: Homeward bound!
Obligatory real world content: I bet this would have been something to see.
For those to whom I have not yet bragged, I got full funding to go to Peru. So loaded right now. I love my life.
