"I've been working on the railroad..."- October 9-11

All the live-long day....

I've been working pretty hard the past few days.

Wednesday's project was my Philosophy homework that I didn't finish the night before. I had to scramble to finish it before class at 3:30. Wednesday was just filled with Philosophy in general- right after that I met with my TA to talk about my upcoming paper...

I've been working on the railroad...

On the bright side, I got free sourdough bread at the Farmer's Market! It was right around closing time, so while I was looking at bread at one of the stands, the man asked if I'd ever tried his bread. I responded no, and he said, I quote, "Now why would you deprive yourself like that?" I told him I was interested in sourdough bread, and he just... didn't have any sample bits or something... he plopped a loaf of his sourdough bread right into my hands and said I could have it. So cool!!! I miss Boudin so much though... If anyone wants to send me a care package- anything from Boudin. Or Ghiradelli. Please and thank you.

Just to pass the time away...

I was up late (like.... really late) Wednesday night to start my Spanish project. I finished the first part, which was making a brochure.

Thursday, then, was me getting said Spanish project done in a scramble before 4. I was literally either working on it, stressing about it, or in class all day. I finished with a half hour to spare before class. Let's hope it's fairly good work. I'll start on it sooner next time.

Can't you hear the whistle blowin'?...

I had to recoup a bit after that, but then it was off to the football game for a bit of a relaxing time. We played Arizona and WON!!! Go Trojans!!!

Rise up so early in the morn'....

Today's project was anything and everything that wasn't my two papers that are due at the beginning of next week. I wanted to give myself plenty of time to devote to solely those papers. I did a fairly good job, though there are still some to-do list things I haven't done. It helped that I got up a lot earlier than I thought I would too. I had a whole extra hour or two to get stuff done.

It was still a really happy day!! I say happy day in that I felt happy basically all day today! I got to go to lunch with Thomas, and there was a mixer in the Pardee lounge for a while tonight. I went to about an hour and a half of it, and it was fun!

Can't you hear the captain shouting...

By the way... Thomas (yes, I'm calling you out and I know you read this) has never seen a Disney movie. Or so he claims. (Jinny doesn't think it's physically possible). I'll believe him, but...

WHATT?!?!?

How has someone never ever seen a Disney movie ever?!?!?

So I'm planning Thomas's Disney education. I'm thinking we'll start with Peter Pan... but... Disney friends out there- I need your help. What is the essential Disney that someone needs to know to live an educated and fulfilled life? I can't show him all 53 official movies, of course. I haven't even seen them all myself! But there has to be some staples that you can't go your entire life in this part of the world without seeing at least once.

Dinah, blow your horn!

Well, there's more work to be done yet. 'Til tomorrow, friends, Fight on.
