Ra--Ra-Rasputin, lover of the Russian Queen!

Just posting today because I haven't in a week. Really. You gotta keep it alive.

Had a bit of a rough week. Too many midterms and assignments due. I got everything done, though, albeit not brilliantly. I'm pretty sure I did spectacularly poorly on my chemistry midterm, but at least it is only worth 7.5% of my final grade. If I keep doing well on everything else, and on the 60%(!) final, I should be ok. My history of popular music in drama midterm yesterday went really well, which is a good thing, because that one is worth 30%!

I sent out my med school application on Sunday night, and so far they've received all my supporting documents except my transcript. MUN, I ordered that thing two weeks ago! Why isn't it there yet? The admissions office lady told me not to worry, though, because they know how the registrar's office is. Slack, that's how they are. A bunch of slackers.

Relaxing most of this weekend. No partying for me. I'm trying to save money and recover some of the sleep I lost this week. To force myself not to go out on Saturday night, I'm going to my parents' house right after work. It's so nice to hang out there sometimes, since I moved out. My parents are so happy to see me, they almost treat me like a "guest". I'm pretty sure my mom even cleans the bathroom before I get there. Either that, or it's always clean now that I don't live there anymore. I'm also looking forward to watching Coronation Street. I don't have a tv at my house, so I haven't seen it in weeks.

I try to make my life sound interesting, but it pretty much just ends with me rambling about my week. Oh well.

P.S. Someone just passed by my house in a car with the music (bass especially) up on BLAST. That would be relatively normal if it wasn't 10:45 in the morning. You don't usually hear that kind of stuff at least until after supper. Maybe they need it to wake up or something. I don't know.

P.P.S. I just remembered, the Klezmer group I play in at MUN is playing a short set at folk night at the Ship this Wednesday. Everyone should go check it out, and then let me know how a bunch of white kids from St. John's are doing with interpreting traditional Eastern European Jewish music. Yeah.

You've moved out, haven't you? So technically, when you visit your parents, you ARE a guest there, am I right?

And that "bass" sound coming from that car could have been Fraser, y'know...he's getting his license (look out world) and he DOES have a very low frequency voice and flatulation. Oh wait...Fraser's not out of bed at 10:45 in the morning, who am I kidding.

I'm pretty sure that 90% of those involved in Klezmer music nowadays are "white kids". So you should fit right in!

I really didn't have much to say with this comment...just wanted to get "first post" honours again. Anyways...
