Still have some time...

Hello, i'm back 'cause i'm feeling very guilty about leaving you three in the lurch for 20 days and then just putting in a tiny little post. I still have 10 minutes before departure, so I can add more details. Detail Number 1: This weekend we took down the Christmas tree :( This makes me very sad. No more lights, no more ornaments, no more pine needles on the carpet, no more nativity scene. Sigh. Detail Number 2: I have an English paper due on Monday in which I have to analyze the relationship of two movie characters and how it pertains to colonialist ideas. My movie choices are: the gods must be crazy, indiana jones and the temple of doom and...Pochahontas. Yes, the Disney version. I actually watched it during my break today for the first time in probably 8 or more years. I wasn't really missing much. So I have yet to decide which one i'll do. AHHH!! Detail Number 3: I got a "check plus/check" on the last English paper I turned in. This is an interesting detail mostly because I haven't seen a "check" on a paper since kindergarten. Funny how it takes me back...:) Detail Number 4: English is my favorite class this semester. Weird, huh? Especially since I was dead set against the idea of freshman writing. It is actually tons of fun (in a school perspective on fun anyway), we watch movies, write papers, and discuss colonialism. Kind of a lot of work, but fun. Detail Number 5: I forgot to put a title on that last post. Its title can be either "Monkey's Migration" or "Lunch's Lament" whichever you prefer. Aren't I generous? Detail Number 6: We (some siblings, a friend and I) went and saw "Glory Road" last week. It is a very good movie a la "Remember the Titans." I definitely recommend it. Highly. Detail Number 7: It is now departure time. Goodbye!

yes, i was definitely feeling a bit abandoned, thanks for the update :D details are fun. glad you're enjoying english- always loved it myself. altho re-joining the ranks of students isn't going so great for me now. I'm in this pre-certification course online for getting certified as a Project Management Professional (PMP) and can't seem to get into the swing of this homework crap again. sigh. maybe i'm too old. you can't remind an old dog how to do tricks from years past... or something like that. okay, moving along now... love ya! thanks for the update. looking forward to hanging out next week.

Yeah, I'll see you in just a few (okay, more than a few) hours! Horray! Sorry 'bout the homework. I don't think anyone ever really gets that hang of it. I know I havn't.
