I'm sure there should be more interesting things about which to write, but interesting hasn't been my lot recently.
I've been writing about Dante's Divine Comedy and Shakespeare's Twelfth Night and Dorset, Vermont, and my philosophy of Residential Life.
I've been cutting my index cards into quarters because it saves on index cards and makes flipping through them less conspicuous in classes where I'm not supposed to be memorizing the levels of Purgatorio and the seven deadly sins.
I've been proofreading papers galore. And more.
I've been studying for British Literature exams and World Literature exams.
I've been choosing my classes for next semester and realizing that if I can get the rest of my Timothy Center credits transferred I really will have only one and a half years left here. Glee!
I've been finding nooks and crannies where I can study uninterrupted.
I've been giving horsebackriding lessons three days a week.
I've been loving one of my students too much for words.
I've been loving my new church and my new friends and trying to figure out the dynamics of newness.
I've been meditating on scriptures about joy, and rejoicing, and life, and faith.
I've been meeting with girls I'm loving more and more every day.
I've been trying not to meet with some people I wish would like me a little less.
I've been applying for a job, a house, a trip, and unapplying for a school loan.
I've been checking my mailbox and finding cards from three people I love [Did you hear that? I love you!!!].
I've been hugging my roommates and other people too.
I've been thinking about freedom, and humor, and why in the world The Color Green has never been my favorite song, since it's always been my favorite color.
I've been trying to drown out the constant tv in the next room and longing for the day that I won't have one.
I've been putting together a budget and realizing that I need to pay some people back for some things.
I've been staring at a list of tasks that have been waiting to get done since this summer and waiting for three straight hours in which to do them.
I've been getting phone calls at one am in the morning and invitations for Thanksgiving dinner. I've been getting emails at one am in the morning and requests to proofread more papers.
I've been looking at the clock and thinking that it is one am and I've never stayed up til one am until this season of my life.
I've been hanging up the phone.
Closing down the email.
Finishing up this post.
Now wasn't all of that interesting?

I found it quite interesting! Good to hear what's going on in Lore's world. It makes me miss the days a little car would quietly pull into the driveway and a even quieter knock would bring me to the door. Have a great Thanksgiving! Hope to at least catch a glipse of you when you are home for Christmas.
Christmas break is soon. I just keep reminding myself of that. daily. Not because I don't like it here, I love it here, but because you know, it's nearing the end of the semester and I'm tired. . . I'll come visit you. I'm really excited about the prospect of having time for the first time since LAST Christmas break.
Miss you Lore. Thanks to my Mom's pampering, I have had some time to catch up on blogs. Do come home soon. I can't wait to show you my newest baby. (it's amazing because he is ALSO the cutest baby in the world!)
Now, how in the WORLD could that happen? you can not have made two of the cutest kids in the world. . . that kind of stuff just doesn't happen twice in a lifetime. . .
heh heh.
I will be home on the sixteenth of december. believe me, i'm counting down the days.
I left info about transfers at my xanga.
