    I went to the Jazz game on Saturday with my boyfriend and it was super fun. Unfortunately it took hours away from my study time and I only have a week and a half to study for finals now. But the game rocked! Oh, and I had ham the other day. It was very good. Random, but true.

    My little sister Diana (well, not so little) just got into her first-choice grad school--Case Western University--with a full-ride!

    I've moved!

    And even better, my oldest sister got engaged this past weekend!!!! Hooray! I'm so excited for her!

    Sounds like a few of us have siblings getting married. ;)

    I had a fun time in Floriday. And even better? I came back to mail from BYU...

    AND I GOT BACK IN!!!!!

    I keep thinking there's more of a snag somehow than the academic support stuff I gotta do, but... I GOT BACK IN I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

    Hi, this is Ish, signing in to say...

    I'm in Gardener's state!

    Of course, I'm still a dang long drive away from her and only in Texas for another hour on my way to Virginia, where my sister will be getting wedded this weekend.

    I had someone do fanart for me! Personally, I've been waiting for a long time for that to happen. Maybe I'm just a geek. And I got 170 dollars more in my bank account this week.

    In one day, I have submitted my audition materials to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and written the long-awaited verdict on my 585-page monsterpiece! I'm proud of myself twice!

    Being sick is good for something!

    I have a wolf spider in the living room, under the sofa. This is decidedly not good news. *cries*

    Oh, I caught the bouquet at my sister's wedding. This is the second time in a row. What is it with that?

    Ha yes being sick IS good for something.

    I don't think talking about any spiders in this thread is good.

    I'm starting to feel a tiny bit better. Except. Headache just came back.

    Unless, of course, the talk about spiders is about her squishing aforementioned giant spider.

    Yes, of course!

    Oh, that reminds me, another thing to add to my review of book 2. The movies do improve on the action scenes quite a bit, IMO.

    Umm good news... umm... yes. I'm going to bed soon. That's good news.

    Yes, squishing of the aforementioned beastie would be very good.
