jacqueline bouvier kennedy onassis hall 802

that's right, bitches. beasley and i got our 1st choice for housing. and we are going to party. it. UP. actually, we're gonna have to party it down, since we're gonna be on the top floor aka the penthouse.

anyway, i NEED to know if i got accepted into the seminar at the inst. for humane studies!!! the suspense is killing me and apparently i won't know until the middle of this month. if i get in (and i am certainly not hopeful or holding my breath), that will set up a lot of my summer automatically: i'll go home on may 10, take some classes at community college, then come back for the seminar in mid-july (at which housing is provided to me for free) and spend the rest of the summer living in this very reasonably priced apartment in silver spring.

and if i DON'T get in, kill me now, for that means i have to either shell out nearly $1,500 to live in college park, or worse, spend my summer in california. (it sounds ideal until i tell you the story about what my hometown is like.) either way, i still need an effing JOB. and it doesn't help that this is the 11th hour! :(

i'm actually considering being a public policy major, instead of international development. thoughts? at any rate, the courses i'm lined up to take next semester fulfill requirements for other path:

economics 12 (microeconomics)
  • sect. 10 @ wed fri 9:35-10:25
economics 12 (discussion)
  • sect. 35 @ mon 3:55-4:45
exercise activities 29 (yoga)
  • sect. 13 @ mon 11:00-11:50
humanities 7 (african humanities)
  • sect. 10 @ tue thu 12:45-2:00
political science 3 (intro. to intl. politics)
  • sect. 10 @ tue thu 11:10-12:25
political science 146 (u.s. foreign policy)
  • sect. 10 @ mon 2:20-3:35 & wed 3:45-5:00
sociology 179 (race & minority relations)
  • sect. 10 @ tue thu 2:20-3:35

i also FINALLY got around to going to rice hall yesterday and had my adv. placement scores put on my transcript. those alone will mean i can graduate a semester early, & w/ summer school classes i can graduate a full year early. fuck!! i still need to figure out what i'm gonna do w/ my life!!

i'm off to find food... i can't wait until i live closer to the marvin center...

Michael,
I just spent 27 minutes reading the entirety of you blog. I laughed, I cried, I got up to go to the bathroom. Generally I was amused.
