Monica's Journal: busyness! rar!

so the past two weeks have been insanely busy. it's like living paycheck to paycheck with bills due, but really i'm living class meeting to class meeting with reading due. and i feel like i've barely figured out what i might want to do for senior project, and i'm supposed to give a talk on that in a few weeks. like each week finishes, and i think "what? but i didn't get to do ------ that i was supposed to do by friday!" my desk is full of stuff piled on top of itself, and although we fixed my computer, it's not in its right place which makes my world feel even more cluttered.

    and we're having some sort of conflict with residence life - they want todd and i to move into a double so we're not taking up two singles and just hanging out together the whole time. whatever. i hope that goes away if i ignore it long enough.

    and the freshmen are so loud in my dorm. basically all the time. one of things that i really don't like is people talking unnecessarily loud in normal conversation. people who have eaten meals with me will notice that this is especially true in kline, where basically all the conversations meld together anyway. i adore listening, like in todd's post about grand central station, to the nice background hum of voices. but i don't really like one to stand out usually. i tend to avoid people with the louder dining hall voices, and there's one girl in my hall whose voice is extremely boisterous. i feel like i'd really like her if she just didn't talk so damned loudly.

boistrous voices

i hate those too, except mine seem to come in the big auditorium classes, like the football players in the back who yell to each other. but i wouldnt like them even if they were quiet.

yeah, we don't have big auditorium classes. or football players, really.

uncluttering influenzas

[evil todd.]

well now 'we' really fixed your computer and it's in its right place, and your desk is uncluttter, so you better get some work done this week, missy.
