It's so nice not to be working my ass off.
My profs have done just about everything bad possible this past week, so the week before Spring Break looks like smooth sailing. Topics is European History is always work, but that's nothing new, and I kicked some ass on my Spanish test (now watch, I'm gonna get like a 60 on it by some freak chance).
Sooo....what else has been up. Well I've been helping a bit with the Week in Review for C+H meetings by doing bad photoshop images such as putting John's head of a mermaid body ("Mer-MAAAN!") and putting dreadlocks on Vanilla Ice. My images are kind of like the equivalent of the Terrible Reenactments from SNL news...except not as funny...and much more terrible...
But on the way out of the Bison yesterday after the boy's brainstorming session, I was quckly distracted by the vendor table set up in the hallway. Ben (reffing the Adam Ferrara "Shooooe-saaale!" bit) teased me while I was looking through all the purses and I walked away with a cute pink and maroon Mat & Nat handbag (they made the blue leather on that I love). It didn't matter that I showed up half an hour late to the meeting because I had to go around looking for a printer for the pictures (I eventually ended up just walking in to Jeff M's open room and commendeering his printer).
After the meeting I played Munchkin for about an hour and a half with Andy, Carrie, Jeff (M) and Beamer. I was a bit miffed, though, that the first card I drew was something to the effect of "Amazingly Horrible Unspeakable Death." No, seriously, that's what the monster was called. Needless to say I died instantly, but the new had that I drew gave me the Magnificent Hat, so it's all good. I should get a copy of that for home.
Well I have stuff I should be doing so I'm gonna cut this off here.
