Ok, so I totally forgot to mention it before, but SNOW! Snow that actually sticks to the ground and isn't just a flurry and yay snow! :D I'm going to be so sick of this by March but for now it is awesome. What's the point of coldness with no snow? There is none!

Anyways, so I talked to my partner for the psych lab today that I bitched about yesterday for not showing up, and it turned out she went home over the weekend (she lives in Minneapolis somewhere) and there was some family emergency or something and she couldn't get back, and now I feel bad for bitching her out, but at least I wasn't mean to her face before she told me what happened, so at least she doesn't know that I was angry with her even though it wasn't her fault. And maybe I shouldn't judge situations like that and assume the worst, but I've had such terrible experience with group projects before (the three freaking Euro projects I did with Seher, and each time she was a terrible partner and made me far more stressed than I should've been) that at this point, I expect the worst before anything's even happened.

Ooh, today I talked to someone who watches Doctor Who! Like, well, I normally eat lunch MWF with this guy from my astronomy and geology classes, since he sits next to me in astronomy and we both have class until 1 and lunch ends at 1:30 so that's basically the only time to eat lunch. Anyways, this guy is one of his semi-friends that has astronomy with us and sometimes sits with us, and they were talking about "Pretend to Be a Time Traveler Day" (which is this Saturday, in case you were wondering), and he mentioned dressing up as the Doctor and I was all "!! You watch Doctor Who?!" and then we talked briefly about the Children in Need special thing. He also watches Firefly, but I haven't had a chance to talk to him about that. Still. Very awesome. I've also seen this girl wearing a Torchwood shirt occasionally, but it's only in passing and I don't know her name, year, where she lives, or anything about her, so I'd feel really awkward just stopping suddenly and being like "Hey! Torchwood!" But still. Very cool.

Anyways, less than two weeks now of class, three days of finals (and I only have 2 actual finals, and neither is cumulative!). It's crazy that the semester is almost over. I'm definitely looking forward to it, though. 5 1/2 weeks of relaxation and no stress and watching TV and movies and reading and seeing my friends and my parents and my birds and being home is going to be awesome.

It snowed today! Ok, it was a flurry, and it lasted for probably about 10 minutes, and the snow melted several seconds after it hit the ground. But still, it was really cool. I'll probably be sick of snow by April and missing California winters, but still. I've gone skiing at least once a year for the past 6 or 7 years, so it's not like I've never seen snow before, but I've only witnessed snow falling a few times, so it's pretty cool to me.

In other exciting news, my bird, Caitlin, laid another egg. She laid three a month ago (I'm not sure if I posted about all three or just the first one). The other eggs were infertile and this one probably is too. I feel bad for her, though. Cockatiels are so small, and it takes a lot of energy and their own mass to create an egg. I hope she quits laying eggs soon.

I have a feeling I'm not going to enjoy the rest of the semester very much. I have an outline due for my geology paper tomorrow and I have no idea what I'm doing. Like, I have part of my topic defined, but I can't figure out the other part, and I really don't want to do this now. sigh. On the plus side, though, I was worried about this presentation I have in my Technologies for Representing Gender class, but I figured out what I'm going to do, and I'm really looking forward to working on it. Unfortunately, I have to finish this outline before I can start working on the project, since the outline is due several days before the presentation, so that sucks. Oh well.
