So, I started Jane Eyre on Sunday which turned out not to be the best idea because it was really good and it was also really addictive and so I kept wanting to read it even though I had loads of work to do. And I ended up finishing it Monday night, even though I should've been studying for English and physics. (This also meant that I missed all of my Monday night TV. And I still have two episodes of Supernatural to watch, and Torchwood! It's ok, I'll either catch up this weekend or next, since next is Thanksgiving weekend.) But yeah, I totally loved Jane Eyre. Kind of sad I finished it so quickly, though, because now I want a new book to read.

Yesterday was jazz band auditions. I think I did all right. If Mrs. Bentley has any say in it, I totally made it. I'm trying not to be too confident just in case, but yeah. It went well, I think. The results were supposed to be posted today, but then Mrs. Bentley said they wouldn't be posted until next week sometime. blah.

I have my first college interview on Sunday. eep. Nervous. Luckily it's with Goucher, one of my safeties, so it can be a kind of practice, since my next one will be on Wednesday, and that's for Tufts, a school that's a slight reach for me and that I'd really love to attend.

Supersized The Office tonight! I'm so excited. I've been waiting for this episode forever. Less than 3 hours now!

Ok, time to study for chem test and calc quiz.

Jane Eyre is the best. That scene where she leaves always kills me.

It is such a good book! I know, that scene killed me too.

I love Jane Eyre, I haven't read it in five years, literally, but I used to love it so much. I thought the movie was kind of creepy though hehe.

I love it too! It's such a good book. Haven't seen the movie yet, not sure if I will. I kind of want to, but I don't know.

you read that whole book in two days? HOLY CRAP.

Heh, yeah. I'm a fast reader, and I really wanted to finish it because I was enjoying it so much.

Oh man, Jane Eyre. Was I the only one who was hoping she wouldn't end up with Mr. Rochester? Just me? Ok. To be fair, I read it when I was in, like, 7th grade, and I was younger and therefore stupider than I am now.

I did want her to end up with Mr. Rochester, but there were some points I wasn't so sure. I mean, I mostly liked him, but he was just kind of... too... I don't know. Weird? I don't even know how to describe it. The whole trying to marry Jane when he was already married thing kind of weirded me out, even though I understood his intentions, and there were times when he seemed a little crazy. But overall I did want them to get together.

Yeah, I think the point I didn't get when I was younger was that they were both really emotionally screwed up. Which, understandable. I mean, she was an orphan and he had a crazy wife and she had that abusive family and stuff.

ahh good luck with you interview! i'm so glad i won't have to be interviewed for college, I'd be sooo nervous!

Thank you! I am pretty nervous about it, especially since I'm not that great articulating what I want to say. Hopefully it'll go well.

good luck on the interview :D

Thank you! :D I'm getting pretty nervous about it.
