Alright, sociolinguistics of the deaf community...
you’re the one thing keeping me from my freedom. Let’s do this thing, let’s tango, let’s get down and dirty. Um but also like maybe please have mercy? So great of you! Thanks.
Alternate ending
We were talking about Harry Potter over lunch today.
Marilyn: Yeah, well what if was all a just poor boy’s hallucination because he was starving and alone in a cupboard? Trevor: And it just ends with his uncle knocking on the door… Me: Like “Wake up Harry. And make the bacon!” Levi: No, guys…what if he was just a normal boy with parents and he just wakes up and it...
Better yet, while we're wishing for things...
Why isn’t it Saturday?
Why
isn’t Friday right now?
On the bright side
I did do laundry today, so I totally have underwear for tomorrow! SCORE.
I'm gonna play it straight with you
This studying thing? No, nope, it’s really not happening.
I was doing very well for a while (and probs maybs hopefully got As(ish) on my first two exams), but now…am I reading English? Are these notes in a language I speak? My mind is rejecting Robert Nozick and John Rawls so hard right now.
AND! The great debate: do I make-up my political theory exam tomorrow at 1 or Thursday at 12?...
Halfway there
Two down, two to go.
Agenda for tomorrow
wake up
put laundry in perhaps?
shower? or breakfast first? (quite honestly, depends on my underwear situation pre laundry doing)
phone calls, phone calls
study for intro to political theory
phone calls
debate whether or not to watch movie
look at sociolinguistics stuff
Kay, super cool. Super psyched.
“Me: Later we’ll go tickle the ivories, yes?
Ryan: Yes!
Levi: Oh? Are you...”

Mehr wütend als traurig--oder? Ich kann nicht...
Ich hasse dich, ich hasse an dich denken. Ich hasse, dass ich dich bald sehen werde. Warum? Warum, warum? Es wird ein neues Jahr sein, und ich möchte
Warte! Jetzt spreche ich mit meinem Freund, und bin ich plötzlich froh. Oder so lala (ha!)…hm. Er und ich werden Klavier später spielen. Okay. Okay.
Sorry if my Deutsch is wrong. Simultaneous study sesh/ventation, double yes.
Talk
That was all I ever want to do. I’m so glad he wanted to talk and wanted me to listen. Bottling things up doesn’t work for me, I can’t imagine it works for anyone, really. I’m constantly grateful for the friends I have, and if I could be even a little bit of help, or just a ear…I’m simply glad this evening happened.
Pleeeaaassee
Relieve me from this torture. Even just a little bit. (You know I really mean it because of all those extra letters in ‘please’./’please.’<—British way or American way, you choose!) Aghhgh. Would mayhaps some emoticons show you how much I mean this? Yes? No? If it helps?
Right.
Strugglin'
I am way too amused to be doing homework right now.
Figuring we'd all enjoy it immensely, my mom...

Speaking of birthdays, I find it absolutely imperative that you be around for mine. BUT!!! I just looked up all of our break schedules, and my gosh, how depressing it is when we only overlap by a day. With italicized ones indicating those that coincide with the 18th, they are as follows:
Villanova: Saturday March 3rd - Sunday March 11th
Clark: Saturday March 3rd - Sunday March 11th
UConn:...

In Which Girl Realizes that the Professor's Plug...
On November 30th at 10:02 am, the professor asked the girl out on their first date. Although technically he invited the entire class to the date, the girl knew he was really talking to just her. Naturally, he didn’t really want the rest of the class to tag along, but as a paid employee of the University, he was unfortunately obligated to invite everyone to the afternoon lecture on the War in...
Girl Feels the Need to Describe Her Heart as...
His checkered shirt clashed rather horrifically with his black and red tie, but there was nothing disharmonious about his body underneath. You would have thought Thanksgiving was a term for an intense period of vigorous eight-hour ab, cardio, and strength workouts the way he looked on the morning of November 28th. The idea of the professor gnawing on a drumstick with a forkful of mashed potato,...
