nagi_schwarzI think that says it all. I did nothing useful all day Sunday. The weather here has been haywire. It snowed on Sunday, so I hid inside. Read lots of lousy fanfiction and watched movies. Suffered lousy headaches. Monday was the Christmas party. I think we had more fun getting ready for the party than the actual party itself. We went nuts at WalMart and other places, and bought much more candy than is ever advisable. We cleaned the apartment like mad - BenTen took the living room, Del the kitchen, and me the bathroom. Well, we did clean the living room, but our flat is pretty cluttered, so all the clutter went into respective owners' rooms, and now mine and Del's room looks like BenTen's. Okay fine. I've made that comparison for the last time. Del brewed wassail, and BenTen and I made up the party favors - mugs filled with candy and decorated with pretty handmade nametags (calligraphed by yours truly). I ran off to the Writing Center staff Christmas party, said goodbye to a whole load of friends, enjoyed some good food, and even enjoyed some pictures. I also received a nice card and a book. That I will have time to read once I graduate. Ack.
Once I graduate. Much easier written than done.
The party was short and sweet. A bit awkward in spots, mostly when Carl hit on Logan for most of the night. But the food was good. Pizza and wassail and chocolate fondue (that I still need to clean up). We exchanged presents and talked. Then the video games broke out. BenTen had a surprisingly good run, but Logan continued to be beaten by a little Asian girl in a dress. We also played some hand DDR, at which Logan was surprisingly good. And then out came the Munchkin. Of course, Logan won first by virtue of beginner's luck. I won the second game by keeping my levels on the downlow. Woot. Rowsmakitty came to visit. Maybe it was just me, but the air went weird, so I took Sei home and then crawled into bed.
Today I was bad and didn't go to the gym, opting to sleep in. Then I got up, showered, dressed, and went to a study group on campus. Turned in my Latin final. Studied with a larger group for an hour or so for mythology. Came home and did some more work. Then felt the need for a nap. I tend to need a nap at around three or four in the afternoon, but alll semester naps had been out of the question due to scheduling, so I said what the hell and took a nap. Got up around six and nuked some Wassail - which is much better the next day - and ate some pizza. Drank the wassail to get warm. Had some fruit. Turned on some Firefly and proceeded to get work done. I reread all my articles and bookmarked them on my laptop. Reread all the primary texts - or skimmed them at best - and marked the useful portions as well. It was probably a huge folly for me to work on material for both papers at once. I still have no urge to write.
My head hurts and I'm going nuts.
I WILL get these papers done.
