sick

Ope, aaaaaaaaaaaaand I'm sick.

Last night I gave up on the all-nighter, and I slept with a down comforter, a fleece blanket, and a thick sleeping bag draped over all that....and I was still freezing and shaking. And then I ended up having one of those weird-ass sick dreams, you know, where people have multiple heads and the storyline is less coherent than even a regular dream. I'll describe it later in detail just because it interests me, but it involved an angry Oprah taking over my history class. Except Oprah didn't look like Oprah, but I knew it was Oprah.

Also, I finally caved in and wrote a little note to the girl who lives next door. Her alarm clock goes off for at least 30 minutes, sometimes HOURS in the morning, and it wakes me up whenever it's my day to sleep in. And annoys the shit out of me if I'm already awake by the time it starts going off. At first I didn't want to write a note because I thought that'd be aggressive or creepy or something, but then I realized that I don't even know what this girl looks like, she's not my friend, and I don't even know if I'll see her just once between now and June, this being the anti-social dorm. So I went for it. I'm gonna credit that bit of determination or aggression or whatever you would call that (bitchiness?) to my time in Israel, because normally when it comes to neighbors and roommmates I'm pretty passive. So, thank you Israel!

Speaking of Israel, have I mentioned on this blog that I'm going to attempt an early graduation? I'm trying to get out of here after next fall quarter, thereby missing another winter in this Arctic Hellhole, but at the very least I'm aiming to get out of here by Winter 2010 (as opposed to Spring 2010 when I was originally scheduled to graduate.) The reason being, if I get back to Israel much later after that, then I don't qualify for full army service. I looked it up and I found that I could come back as late as age 22 and still qualify for full army service (because it'd be within 2 years of my having left Israel after being there for at least 120 days, at age 19/20), but I figure I'm already older than everybody and I dont want to be even older. This does, however, mean that I have to be in fucking summer school this summer.
Haha, I love that I got back from Israel a month ago and I"m already talking about going back.

red eyes--- thanks for stopping by! I have not read any books by salman rushdie, though I've always thought that I probably should get on that at some point.... I made a brief stop on your blog and found it very intriguing, and I'll definitely come back again in the near future.

avi ben zahav-- DM? It's on. Hillel team, b'seder?
as for studying.....basically at any point after 5. I'd prefer not to study after the production meeting cos I'll be pooped by then. And can we study Heeb and also do the Logic problem set?
