It's your own worst enemy
Ringing the bell on the door
And the person inside says nobody's home
So your own worst enemy peeks inside
And sees you softly weeping as some music fills the room

And the song they play
Is that guy with the messed up face
Going, precious and few are the moments that you
And your own worst enemy share

--They Might Be Giants

Yeah, once again I wrote an entire entry and then the touchpad on my laptop set off the "back" button and I was left with nothing. BAH

So I'm 1/3 done with finals. I turned in my take-home immunology exam, despite the fact I probably could have worked on it tremendously more. . . . I've decided that being a senior is a good enough excuse to just let it go. I also reasoned with Becker today, and managed to turn my lab write-up grade from 67 to 76. .. and I'm very happy with that actually. If I could get a B in physics, I would be happy. I don't want a C, but I'll deal if that's what I get too. It's not worth worrying about.

Today could perhaps be THE loveliest day of the new year yet. So warm. .. .warm enough for tank tops but not so warm you have to wear shorts--which is good because I'm no fan of shorts (these blinding white gams of mine weren't made for them!). I'm perfecting the jeans-tanktop-sandals look. Everyone is lying around or playing games or sadly working on finals (guess which category I will be in all week?).

So, I've been kicking around some ideas for 3-week activities--Dave is going to be off in California for part of it, so I need to remain busy in a fun way. Here's what I have so far:

1. Movie Night(s): I'm probably going to round up Alien & Aliens, I've got the first season of Buffy and maybe I'll procure the 2nd during break, heck who knows?
2. Video Games in the Lounge: OR I could spend my money on a new controller for the x-box and maybe a game or two.
3. 3-MILE SQUARE WALKS NEED TO HAPPEN
4. Dinner out with friends: like Appleby's or Lemongrass or anywhere damnit!

Then there are two more abstract ideas I've been thinking about. One is a day of closure. See, there's alot of people I may never see again ever and there are certainly things I'll want to say to them. Although I'd like to be lazy and say--if you want closure, come and get it! I'll tell you just what I think of you! But who knows. The other is a memorial walk: I'd kindof like to pick some of the most important spots on campus, in my time here, and visit them all and remember those moments. But that could be a long list. . .
