Bore me to death and I swear I'll haunt you.
I should really be working on revising that little C+ tragedy of mine, but my creative juices seem to want to alot themselves to imagining how my conversation with Jayar tomorrow will go. It's not as productive, of course, but it's hell entertaining! Oh, I wonder if he would be able to tell that I have missed him. Oooh, and I wonder what questions he'll ask me. Oooh, and I wonder if we'll laugh a lot or if we'll have uncomfortable silences. Oooh, and I wonder if he'll have as much fun as me. HA! Imagining rocks!
Other news: Professor Benson said I had a unique style. I HAVE A STYLE, people. I didn't even know that. Ha! But I'm taking that complement! :)
So yeah. We wrote little pretend letters to C.P. Ellis and she had me read mine in class. I swear, I was shaking. I mean, I don't mind people reading my work. But having to come up front and read it WHILE PEOPLE ARE STARING AT YOU WITH JUDGEMENTAL EYES, holy shit, is just terrifying. But yes. No getting away from Professor Benson; she is far too coercive. And I do suffer from her praise in class, you know. I hate being singled out. I mean, single me out in your head, woman. Don't let everybody else know, for chrissakes.
I've been trying to look at all the stuff I've written in the past months and see what "style" she's talking about. As of late, I have no clue whatsoever on what she's talking about. I could ask her, you know, but that's just awkward and I don't fish for complements. They just come to me. Haha.
Planning for next term sucks. Right now, I have HonEngComp 104, GenBio102, Philo103, Psych102 and Math237 on my list of classes that I want to take. Exciting? Not really. Just getting rid of all the gen-ed requirements.
Oooh, and a really, really good thing about being part of the Honors College is that we register before everybody else. Ha! Way cool. :) I register on Monday.

Randoms things about me
I'm Kitten :)
I get a year older every 17th of August. I am a Leo, and I carry all traits associated with that zodiac.
Right now, I'm twenty years old and I'm loving it. They say we're only as young as we feel. I feel like I'm five.
I would never leave the house without my Zen and my E2. The latter connects me to the world; the former takes me away from it.
If I were to choose a word to describe my life, that word would be
crazy.
I am in love with the stars. I am in love with the rain.
I am a Rutgers University student, and I want to graduate with an English degree. An English-Psych double major would be nice. An English-TCert would be even better.
I want to be a teacher. I want to be writer. I want to be both.
I thrive on indie and emo. Mae, The Spill Canvas, Copeland and Daphne Loves Derby - these are the guys that I listen to. I listen to other bands here and there, but mostly those are the bands I follow. That being said, I'm a mainstream moron.
There's no feeling more lovely than being carried away. People don't usually think of me as somebody spontaneous, but I like being swept away as much as the next girl.
I fall in love easily, but it is really hard for me to fall out. Really hard.
I am very fragile.
I am tolerant of almost everything except one thing: intolerance.
I am an extensive reader. I thirst only for meaning, nothing else.
I love my friends <3
I am extremely spiritual but not religious.
Things I want to do in my life time
Get a job.
- Save up enough money to go back home -
wherever that is if I ever had one before I'm 40.
- Write a book.
- Sing for a Disney movie.
- Buy a house on top of a hill.
- Go bunjee jumping.
Travel halfway around the world.
- See Italy.
Find the one person who makes my heart beat faster and slower at the same time.
Draw and paint.
Learn how to play Sudoku.
- Volunteer for American/Philippine Red Cross or UNHCR.
Quit smoking.
