Sunday Sunday Sunday

Yesterday, was spent with Britt. We did work, slacked and talked. It was an all around good time. Especially since we haven't gotten to really hang out one-on-one so far this year. The only tragic flaw in the plan was driving back to the dorm...without thinking, we left at the exact time the night football game finished. Britt helped me start plotting out my movie. I've decided to ditch the drama idea. The thought of a fantasy/only-kinda-copy of the Princess Bride seems far more fun and inspiring.

This morning my parents visited. All was fun. I got 2 books at Barnes and Noble. Hey Cath, did you know about Dave Barry's Peter and the Starcatchers? I bought it. Are you jealous? (You probably already have it)

Tonight I'm going to see Saved with Leslie and possibly Yi. It should be funny. I hope that Leslie won't hate me forever, but I might have to ditch her after the movie and go to the library to print off some readings for my lit class. Apparently the reserved section of the library is open until 1 AM. Who would have thunk it?

39 more pages until I'm done with Betsy Thoughtless forever! I'm going to finish it manana. However, I might use it for a paper.
I've been noting a slight theme throughout the book. I thought it was small enough, that it would make for a creative and unusual thesis. Then a character (within the last third of the book, mind you) went and directly stated what I've been hypothesizing throughout the whole thing. While it would make an AWESOME direct quote, I can't help but think my thesis would now be an obvious "duh paper topic." I might have to talk to the prof about still using it as a writing topic.
