So the art museum is throwing a Masquerade ball and I am going to it, duh. Hopefully the mask aspect will be less creepy since everyone else will have their face covered, too.
Tomorrow if I'm not too sick--I'm getting sick and it SUCKS wah--I'm taking the train to New York, and me and Foosh are gonna watch "Were The World Mine". Can't seem to get away from the gay-themed movies...we watched "Latter Days" in BiGLARU last Thursday. I did enjoy it, even the sexytiems parts (except there was a fascination with full rear nudity, which doesn't exactly float my boat and was more awkward than sexy, but whatevs), though I think the first half of the movie is really really rushed. Rumela put it best: "It was kinda 'Oh, by the way, I'm in love with you' after five minutes." The second half of the movie was very well done and flangsty, though. If anyone else has seen the movie I'd be happy to discuss it <3
What else, what else...uh...anyone got any good books about Giorgione? I have to write a paper about how his painting "Laura" is a paradigm of Renaissance Venice's contradictory attitudes towards women. Venetian courtesan culture...<3
Hebrew continues to kick my ass. What really bothers me is that this last quiz I took, I studied for. I even had a system in my head of recognizing words. And then as soon as I get the quiz I totally fricking blanked. You can't tell that I studied, and that really, really upsets me. There's also the fact that he rushes the quizzes and I don't have time to think about them...everyone else in the class is either Jewish or are freaking geniuses, so they're all done within like ten minutes, while I'm the dunce working through her third sentence after she skipped four of them to come back later. I'm pretty sure I'm floating at a C average in that class. How the hell is Sanskrit easier than Hebrew, can anyone tell me?
Uh...nothing new on the fandom front since none of you are into As The World Turns. I am going to schedule myself to finish CaBW and start RewriteCanon, not to mention finish the sporks...
Halloween pics should hopefully be on my computer soon I'll post them asap.
Guess that's all for now~ I notice that most of us aren't posting prolifically lately; I know it's school for me; how are the rest of you guys doing?

Sorry I've been away, folks. But really, there's nothing much to blog about. I go to class, chorus, and BIGLARU. In my spare time I plan my As The World Turns epic fanfic. I started a study group for Japanese on Monday nights; I've only had one meeting thus far but it was fun.
I've been having a lot of nightmares recently and I don't know if it's just because I'm under stress because Sanskrit has been kicking my ass or what (though I fail to see what Nazis murdering original characters in The Sound of Music has to do with Sanskrit). Also, this morning I woke up at like 4 AM unbearably thirsty. And I'm starting to get sick; the back of my throat hurts. Brushing the back of my tongue helped, though, so I'll keeping doing that.
I'm also in the process of converting my mood theme from the standard to one composed of my icons. So I should have a fun new mood theme once it all happens. It just takes forever to upload them all.
This weekend looks like it'll be fun, though ^.^ My Venetian Art class is going to the Metropolitan tomorrow, and then on Sunday I'm going to a Ren Faire with my folks. If I get batteries I'll take pictures <3
