wonderful life...

it's tuesday, the 6th... that means that i have 14 days to finish all the massive amounts of papering. what a blast! :) but i'm not going to discuss much in the way of stress/academics today. well maybe a little.today i am most happy. haha i won't complain, because yesterday was one of the most stressful on record. it's good to be almost too relaxed today.

yesterday was our mock trial for environmental law. it really came down to the last minute for me. i had class from 8-930...then i went to the library... class 1-4...then back to the library. when 5:30 rolled around (the time my group had decided to meet) i wasn't done with the powerpoint i was using during my technology related testimony. ach. sooo finished that and ran to meet up with the group. the trial started at 7:30 and took three hours. hokay. so just yesterday i spent 9 hours on ONLY law. haha. but it was sooo fun! the trial itself was great, but we were surprised by how unpersuasive florida power and light was. basically, we were the natural resource council of maine and they were a big smelly electricity company who didn't want to clean up. (obviously we were on the easier end, considering that it was environmentally nerdy students fighting environmentally nerdy students, but anywho)

it was really stressful, preparing for the trial. but when we were actually there, i looved it! anyway, enough about that. it was great.

today during my three hour history seminar i came up with a fabulous idea for the holiday gathering i've been pondering but not planning. (lack of time and stress and all...) there are too many people who i'd like to see to have a dinner...and i don't want to have a generic college "party" because that's not really the flavi way. soo, i've decided to have a selection of three movies and who ever wants can come, can come to which ever one they want. obviously the focus isn't the movies necessarily... cookie baking/decorating, wine (dude, i'm 21 in 4 months. haha mike made fun of me yesterday for saying it was my 20 and 2/3 birthday), etc. reading too. it would be so fun if people wanted to just be here in a cheerful well-christmas-lit setting, reading! :) i hope this will fly with those invited. otherwise i'll be doing this on my own. i think it'll be awesome. and noonie: on your behalf "it's a wonderful life" will most certainly be one of the options. maybe "elf" and "polar express"... i haven't seen either and i'm thinking of giving in and watching polar express. it's all john's fault, really. :P

anywho. such happiness. i can't wait for break, and yet i'm sad that i won't see certain people for quite a while. c'est la vie.

ps i heart holly. she is in love with a president (in mexico, not THE president) AND a school teacher. BRILLIANT! :) i can't wait till those lovelies get back. i miss them soo much!
