The Republic
Last night was fun. I feel bad for poor Britt, apparently all my ranting about the GRE all summer made her worried. She still has several years at MSU, there's no reason for her to worry, but my "I lost perspective" speech didn't seem to help her. So, I pointed out some of the GRE books I liked. We got no work done at the first official study session...we went to Barnes and Noble. But to make up for it, were having the second official study session today.
I got a late night call from Britt. Apparently her hot neighbor boys were tempting her to drink. I feel bad, because it took me a good half an hour to realize she'd called. So, there were initial "I'm not a supportive friend" issues, but I managed to get a hold of her and reassure her. All is well. I think Rose was kind of hurt that Britt didn't try calling her, but I'd actually had a "if you get tempted, call me" conversation with her.
I'm irritated by the fact that it's socially acceptable to drink, but when you choose not to, you have to justify your reasons to people. Wenches and jerks. Next time, they have to justify their decisions to me. Ha ha! The tables have turned my friends.
Well today I'm off to meet with the prof of the grad class I want to get into. She said via e-mail that she wanted to meet to determine my interests and goals before she let me in. Hmmmm, that makes me a little nervous...but it's not unusual to meet with a prof before she gives you an override. If it doesn't work out, then I know God has doomed me to a life of screenwriting and media use, since those would be the classes He seems to think I need.
It's day 3 of Spanish and I don't want to go. I think I'll be better once I figure out how hard she grades homework and quizzes. On the plus side I have/am making some kind of friends in that class.
