so close, yet so far

1 month, 12 days until home

the end of akp cannot come soon enough.
i have no motivation left :(
that ship has sailed, and it's not turning back.

late assignments/hw due soon:
ecology abstract x2 (one late)
ecology field question
religion "festival" paper (late)
religion research paper
japanese essay x2 (both late)
test corrections

i was never like this... what happened??

7 months, 14 days since i last saw matt

(we're not dating. we're kind of "long-distance not dating but not seeing anyone else-ing" as one friend put it)
we've become really close, and i miss him a lot.
he was supposed to arrive in japan for business several months ago,
but the people at immigration (japan) are taking their sweet time with the paperwork. as far as we know, everything's already been processed and cleared. they just need to send some papers to his boss, and he's on his way to japan!
.........but we're still waiting for that to happen :(

5 days until room draw

after stressing over all the possible options for housing next fall (with the numbers my friends and i have to work with), i finally have solid plans. i'll be drawing into a suite with danielle and two of her friends... completely different from what i originally had in mind, but i think it'll turn out well :)
i'm just a little anxious && can't wait for room draw to be over.

25 days (or so) until fall 2009 course registration

tentative classes:
JAPN 475 ~ seminar in japanese studies
CHNS 302 ~ advanced chinese
HIST 236 ~ history of modern japan
PHIL 206 ~ contemporary moral issues

i cannot wait to get back to midd's vigorous pace :)
five-ish months.....
