on my mind . . .

yesterday the students at fresno state organized a walk-out at school to protest state imposed furlough days.
i can't make this make sense in my head.
they're upset because the furlough days are cutting down the amount of in-class time about 2-3 class days per semester, so they're walking out of classes?
wouldn't it make more sense to sit-in on furlough days?
i'm just saying.

i'm in the middle of an obsession with carla bruni.

she's currently the first lady of france, but before that she was a model.

and between those two things, she made a few albums.

they're mostly in french and they're divine.

i can't stop listening to them.

today i'm taking a mid-term for my tsarist russia class.
it's at home and online.
i have from 7 am to 9 pm to finish the whole thing.
i hardly think this constitutes an education.
i'm having a really hard time getting into the class.
so far the entire story sounds like a hot mess.
no wonder everyone wants to leave.

how great is pandora radio?

i wish i could get it in my car.

i can't wait for this week to be over.

i've had a lot to do.

and i have even more to accomplish before saturday night.

i still have to finish sewing my masquerade costume.

i have to make several desserts and ginger ale jello shots.

find ginger ale (which is surprisingly scarce).

decorate.

get myself transformed into artemis for saturday night.

cook.

clean-up.

oh yeah, and have fun.

hopefully that last bit will take care of itself.

but first i have to finish my mid-term.
