curses, foiled again

Not that I don't love Hawaii, but why do I miss all the good snowstorms in Ohio? Grr.

Otherwise... life is good. =) Since people were snowed in last night, I was sad to hear the musical got cancelled for yesterday and today but it was nice talking to folks online. (HAHA trapped into chatting with me because you have nothing better to do! muahahaha)

It's weird, because I am at the point where I'm not really homesick but I want to hang out with people who are not in Hawaii, and I've also adjusted to the warm weather being "winter" weather, so I am constantly imagining hot summer Ohio scenarios in my head. As you peeps know, this is obviously not the case, but, whatevs. Thinking about summer leads to thinking about what I will be doing next semester (AAAAH registration) which leads me to thinking about all the fun I haven't been having at UD.

I mean, UD is a great place, and I really do want to have engineering skills under my belt. But the more I get comfortable here, and the more I look at everything and see how happy I am, and the more I feel like myself, the less I want to go back to that. It will just be three more years of soul-crushing, and then what? Architecture will obviously be different and I will have the creativity there, but I've heard that it's a LOT of work, soul-crushing in a different way. I really don't know what to do, I really don't. But at least it's good to know I can still feel like myself. =)

In other news, I slept in today pretty nicely (AUGH except for my roommate's fucking phone and alarm clock) and exercized and took a shower and ate a good brunchfast and now I'm just sitting on the couch relaxing and enjoying my view of the beach and the fact that there is no one around on a Saturday afternoon to be playing Rock Band upstairs or breaking the fucking floor above us or blasting their shitty music in the parking lot. (AND my roommate is not here to play her Really Annoying Music and chat on her Really Annoying Phone. I don't get it. She is so nice but SO OBLIVIOUS TO HOW ANNOYING SHE IS OTHERWISE.)

Hm.

Also we are going to see Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day later so I am thoroughly excited. ;D I might also be buying a hat so that is always fun.

If I wrote Dear Diary style, this is what it would kind of be like: "Dear Diary, today was awesome. The end."

Seriously, I just sat around and did nothing but I had fun doing it. And I had fun wearing all green, haha.

Demyla and I went out and saw Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day... ADORABLE! Kind of creepy to walk into a theatre full of old people, though. (But it definitely explains why I haven't seen any ads for it anywhere.) I definitely recommend it. But it probably didn't help that I sat there the whole movie going AAAAAAH I LOVE THAT DRESS and YAY FORTIES and OMG "ANYTHING GOES!" YAY MUSIC and GUH I WANT THAT APARTMENT *stare*

Seriously. Fucking. Awesome.

And then Barnes and Noble finally had the copy of Empire I was looking for! So our apartment now has an Indiana Jones poster and everything is good in life. (Except that I have to get up at 6 tomorrow... and we'll have a 6 hour difference to Ohio...yuck.)

74 days to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull! Today's trivia: Quote from the Empire article: "Having such a Jones for Jones, has Koepp peppered the script with knowing nods and winks? 'A little, obeying the characters as they're laid out. But inside series jokes? I don't like that kind of stuff. Any self-referential stuff we tried to avoid. I don't think that people remember everything that was said 25 years ago, so referring to somethin you said 25 years ago seems kind of stupid to me. So, no, not a lot of that. But, you know, sometimes for fun.'"

SO YAY no stupid references (which I think is what ruined Pirates 2 and 3), at least, not too terribly many or anything.
