*Disclaimer: This conversation has been edited for content (and a little bit of length) and all spelling/grammatical errors are a result of lack of sleep, brain power, and trying to study/write papers. The conversation took place about 1am-2:36am.

This week has been shot full of studying -- or as much academic time my brain could stand.

Unfortunately, I still have much more work ahead of me. My 14 page paper on U.S. intervention in Guatemala (pre-and post-war) is due on Thursday...I'll prolly end up writing about 20 pages for that. AND my 8 page research paper for 19th and 20th c. art is due on Friday. And since I'm a complete retard and haven't signed up for graduation yet, I register on the 22nd.

Then I think I get about a week off, and more papers and tests lurk around the corner, waiting for an ambush. I'll try not to be caught off-guard, but...there are never any guarantees.

Nothing very exciting has been happening lately, but we'll try and change that once Spring Break rolls around. Try being the operative keyword. Still have no plans for SB as of now, but I need to go somewhere. It's the last SB of my undergraduate career! So if anyone has any suggestions, lemme know. I don't wanna spend it stuck at home working for 2 weeks!

Spring Training is here!! I heart baseball. =D

"Hope springs eternal, especially in baseball. We've all seen Ken Burns' paean to the Shakespearean virtues of the sport, and we shouldn't be afraid to admit that we pretty much bought all of it -- even the weird stuff about the striking symmetry of the diamond and the basepaths, or the strange perfection of the stitches in the ball. Baseball undeniably has those poetic qualities, and they are never more evident than on that magical day when pitchers and catcher first roll into Arizona and Florida. All in all, good humor and camaraderie seem to abound when baseball starts up again. Maybe that's the real reason we all love it so much." - Doug Miller

Well, Pats ended up winning the Superbowl, of which I watched about...10 mins or so.

Thank the Lord midterms are over and done with! I think I did ok on my 19th and 20th c. art class, and well...for the US Intervention in LA and the Caribbean, it was a take home test with 4 questions and I ended up writing a total of 9 pages. I think I went a little overboard. Whoops...

Chinese New Year dinner went well, we had 30 people over for dinner at my house on Wednesday night...it was one crazy activity filled day. My mom and I stayed up til like 3am the night before cleaning and preparing the house for the impending arrival of the family.

As always my mom cooked a traditional Chinese New Year feast...and it was delcious. Strange part was that one of my aunts decided to make a huge pot of corned beef and a pot of curry. Those are NOT traditional items for dinner. And we already had 10 dishes! Insane in the membrane...but it all worked out in the end, I suppose.

It's been nice to just chill and relax at home the past few nights with the fam. Sometimes I forget how much I love being at home -- the noises, smells, comfort...I've been living in this house for 15 years, and man...they've been good. I don't think that I could imagine calling somewhere else home; it'd just be too weird.

Candace and I hung out quite a bit today which was a ton of fun...Lladro for coffee and some outdoor chatting, Urban Outfitters, Volunteer Park to swing (I had the sudden child-like urge...I haven't been swinging in a long time, but I do need to find some big-people swings because the set at VP is still the one from my old St. Joe's days), my house for some chatting/me getting ready to go to Cassie's 22nd birthday cocktail party, and dinner at Little Thai.

At Urban I got this great book called Nasty Astrology and Candace and I were reading it pretty much the whole day. It's a bit scary how much the explanation of Cancer fits me...some things completely untrue, some things true. But yes. I will give you your astrological sign explanation from the book if you ask nicely. ;)

And now I'm off to bed, as Cassie's party wore me out. Wearing stilettos for that long is not so much fun. I think I had them on for like...8 hours. Ouch.

Time for bed then work tomorrow...it bring such joy to my life. I do believe that I will not be working there once Spring Qtr rolls around...but that date is always subject to change.

Luckily I made it through the week...fairly unscathed. Lack of sleep is really killing me right now. But it's my own fault, so I really have no room to complain. (But I do it anyway...)

Thursday was the USC game, watched a couple movies at 5626, ended up giving half the house massages, Friday turned in my museum paper, and took my slide ID test. We were going to go to the Thunderbirds game that night, but...they only had the $20 tickets left by the time we went to buy them. Screw that, I'm not about to pay $20 for my first hockey game!

Back to 5626 (I swear, it's becoming my 2nd/3rd home now), Katie 80 and I did some bonding in the car, hung out at the house (with adult beverages, of course), had a mini-dance party in Josh's room/behind the couch area. Sean, Erin, and Katie left, then Webbs (x3), Willie, Heather, Claire, Jeff, Nate, and I headed over to Jill & Audrey's house to stop by the party they were having. I think I hurt my ankles from walking around/dancing so much in my boots.

Yesterday was a fantabulously boring day at work, off to my aunt's house for dinner, then Sonics game against the Bobcats -- what a great game, I mean...Sonics were giving like...60%. Saw them run some plays and some of the bench guys get some minutes. My sister had fun, and we were in 218, but not up at the top, so it was good. My dad ended up coming up the seats fairly often bringing us beverages and food. Oh it pays to have Courtside connections!

Family time after the game took longer than expected, so I ended up going to All American for Mitch's 22nd about a quarter to midnight. Dance, dance, dance!!! Danced the night away, which was loverly...I haven't been dancing in so long. Anyone reading this, we need to go dancing. I heart dancing -- the point of dancing is to enjoy yourself and just have a good time and not care what other people think. So I'm glad that everyone danced for at least one song. Took a very drunk Mitch Balintos and sober Casey home, back to 5626, watched Trainspotting, and went home.

Did you know that I joined the "I stay up way too late and hate myself in the morning" group on Facebook? Because it's so true...

And now I'm screwed because I've got a test tomorrow for Caplow, then Tuesday my take home test is due for US in LA and the Caribbean. Oh God...why oh why...

Chinese New Year is gonna take up most of my time this week, so I'm pretty much busy from today (for my uncle's bday dinner, not CNY related; that starts on Tuesday) until Friday. So if people wanna go out (and dance!), I can pencil it into my schedule. ;)

It's Superbowl Sunday! Go...commercials? Hehehe...I really don't care who wins, but Brady's getting too cocky, so I think I'd be happier of the Eagles won. But I still don't really care either way.

Take care everyone!
