Because life is about connections

Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] goolover65 I will defeat the system and get to see The Nutcracker for $10. I so win! I did attempt to purchase a ticket earlier today, but found that I couldn't lie when directly asked if I was an undergrad. I mean, they probably had a list, anyways, so I would then be able to be charged under a violation of the honor code if I were to lie and say I was. But, I get to go, so yay! Thank you so much, [livejournal.com profile] goolover65.

Oh, and I'm singing a solo in the choir concert next week. My name is even in the program and spelt correctly. Take that, crazy lady! Now if only I could pronounce "dance" and "chance" in the non-British English way, I would be all set. Choir seems to get more fun every week.

I really didn't want to go to the internship today. But W and I went. We ended at an exciting point. One lady wrote a letter to the pastor (who apparently was anti-women being in top positions in the church) with two chapters from books they were using for the high school Sunday School class. One was for girls and one was for boys. We only had time to glance at it, but it seems pretty spicy. Things to look forward to for Thursday, I suppose.

We have to present both of our large papers written for archives during the next two weeks. Intelligent me, I selected an unpopular book for the book review, and a completely different topic for my research paper, so I will get no support, unlike the Women and Cookbooks book that over half the class reviewed. They get to present their findings together. And the people who did access or deassessioning, they get to do a group presentation of about 15 minutes. But no, I had to pick forgery and have to do a ten minute presentation by myself.

Just like I would pick progeria back in high school. Who talks about that for genetic research? Apparently, I did.

I missed most of the Felicity movie due to choir, but according to [livejournal.com profile] ladyshrew it seems to be as good as the Samantha movie was last year.

ETA: Should I be worried that I now have six different language versions of Presgurvic's Romeo et Juliette (and only two I really understand)? I think so.

When do you go back to NY?-- just out of curiousity

[identity profile] ladybranwen.livejournal.com 2005-11-30 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
I am going back either the 19th or 20th, depending on when my parents are able to pick me up (cause they are flying home on the 19th).

Are you coming to Boston?

I wish... I'm just staring at a certain VHS I promised you... and wondering whether it'll get to you on time if I send it on Friday.

Speaking of that, can I ask a huge favor? And please feel free to say no. Since I can't watch video tapes and wanting to see this muchly, is there anyway that you could send me your dvd so I could make a copy of it and send it on home to you? I know that that is supremely risky to you, but I though I'd ask anyways. Sorry for being a bother.

I can do that...

Now I'm going to let Stephen Weber and his awesome acting skills make me cry.

<3 him.

You are too awesome for words, you know that. I'll even make you an extra copy(s) if you so desire.

Thanks so much.

Go enjoy him! :)
