"i wot a cankerswore on my mout"
ouch. i hate these horrid little things. they take up a tiny little taste bud but wreak havoc on your entire tongue. they're wicked, wicked!
i think i've finally run myself into the ground. i've been out of the house the last few days for 12 hours at a time, not really having fun, but mostly working and sometimes seeing friends. i feel like i'm experiencing serious MA, which i've dubbed as mental atrophy. when i was in high school, i had a really hard world civilizations teacher. her name was ingrid petty. you saw her on your class schedule and the tremors that overtook you were enough to register off the richter scale. so, for some stupid reason, i *switched* into her class. she's probably part of the reason why i got into mit - she whipped my social study / humanity skills into shape. afterall, history isn't just about memorization. there are themes, roles people play, patterns that repeat themselves. in any case, she was notoriously know was being a wickedly difficult teacher, but somehow i managed to get an A+ in her class. i just could understand, learn, remember, recognize the way i had to in order to see and understand history. but now i'm finding it exceedingly difficult to acquire knowledge the way i did 10 years ago. maybe it's because this psychology class is a summer class, and one term's worth of material is crammed into 5 weeks. i don't know. maybe i'm just slow. i'm loving it, but finding it hard to remember all these things. yes, my friends, i am suffering from MA.
ioh, while we're on the wubunary, i've also coined other terms:
UDM - ulgy, demented monkey. those are the anti-social, rude, salivating, gross, hairy, smelly guys that your female friends pick up for you when you're trying to snag the hottie. this is why i love my sisters.
the dark ages - the period of time when you have NO idea what you're going to do with yourself. creating color names for crayola sounds to be the most fascinating thing you can do. or, if you're me, you contemplate being a monk.
okay. i need to go to bed. i am rapidly becoming a tired one.
