half a post...in hindi. thanks blogger.


LAME. I wrote half a post before it switched into Hindi. Blogger can now be written in Hindi but if it gets switched into it it can't go back. Not cool.

It's been nearly a week since I posted because things get crazy all at once. I have two paper and an exam this week PLUS an exam next Monday. This is on top of the regular reading and smaller projects that I have like memorizing a Shakespearean sonnet to recite for class or reading all of Gulliver's Travels in a week.

All I want to do is snuggle in my bed a read The Great Gatsby again. It also doesn't help that my roommate got me started on the first season of Heroes. I finished my paper before I got here so we're going to watch at least one more episode tonight.

Julia and I are in here tonight (along with Tracy from the Admissions Office) trying to get into the new chat module. Emily seems to have gotten on fine early this evening but we've having a hard time. Something isn't loading right and logins aren't working. We haven't gone completely live yet so we aren't worrying too much but Bryan (our supervisor) is on the road and unable to help.

You know how in high school it's really annoying but sort of fun when the fire alarm goes off? You get to leave class, chat with friends and avoid doing work, right? Yeah, it's not all that cool when it's 7 PM, you're writing a 5 page paper and someone burns chicken on the floor above you so everyone has to go stand outside the building. We sat for 15 minute in the parking lot waiting for security to give us the thumbs up before we could enter the smoky building stairwell.

At least it was a decent reason - apparently a fire extinguisher exploded last year during the winter at 4 AM and the alarms went off.

Maybe we can log into the chat module now that it's been half an hour since we got here...if not, it's homework time!
