Procrastination Station

So, I've really got nothing to write. I'm just procrastinating over a silly paper I could write in ten minutes - but hey, it'll only take me ten minutes, so I've got time.

I went to see "Lysistrata" tonight. I like throwing popcorn at Betsy. It was very shiny. That is all I shall say about that.

I was a disgraceful Mary Baldwin student and did not celebrate Apple Eve with drunken debauchery - though, to be fair, I know few who did. I stayed home, trying to keep my nose from running away with me and hacking up a lung. Apple Eve is not a good night to be ill. I felt myself to be rather sad, but to be honest, I was glad for the excuse not to wear a toga. (I'm a pathetic excuse for a college student. Tell me something I don't know.) I spent Apple Day laying outside in a hammock, re-reading Jane Eyre and enjoying the warm fall day. It really did feel like the first true day of fall, which made me very happy that I was spending it outside enjoying nature. On a normal Wednesday, I would be rushing to and from class with a massive migraine and an empty stomach.

Recently, I've found myself to have a mild, harmless crush on my biology professor - which certainly gives me incentive to do well in his class. Also, day-dream fodder for math class, during which time I usually just write down the concept name so I can study it with Solomon in terms I can understand. Anyhow, this is probably the safest sort of attraction I can feel nowadays and I'll allow myself to have fun with it for a little while - it's harmless and it gives my brain something to do during idle moments. Besides, I've discovered that any sort of concrete liason/possibility of emotional fulfillment that I may have during my undergraduate years is probably a Very Bad Idea - best to have this attraction at a distance and leave it at that. (And, to be perfectly honest, the silly thing won't last beyond this semester. I don't even go near the biology department except for General Education Requirements, which I'm nearly done with.)

Hm. For having had nothing to write at the beginning of this entry, I certainly managed to come up with quite a lot of verbage. This is what procrastination will do to you. I shall now de-commence rambling.
