i finished my midterm in the span of forty-five minutes despite the allotted hour and a half; in fact, i was done after a half hour but felt rather uncomfortable standing up looking like either a) the pretentious asshole who would ruin the curve or b) the goofball who didn't know a page of city and regional planning.

it felt good to accomplish something i thought would be so daunting, after a weekend that was intensely polemic and discursive.

after my brief flop with AiR, there was a surprise visit from my brother who kinda rubbed it in that i didn't make it. i'm not at all bitter over the whole experience -- i'm just a little frustrated that they couldn't have just told me to come back sooner. i got my hopes way up and i invested too much in something that was, as it turns out for this semester, a pipe dream.

in any case, my brother visited on friday and it was nice to actually see him without any other family there. something about my cousins or my parents being around makes him act so different.

i watched the game against osu at the bear's lair with jon, and then saw (at the other end of the pub!) michelle, holly, janice, and angela as the fourth quarter wound down. at the end of it all angela and i had dinner at beckett's, hung out for a bit, and caught up after not seeing each other in months.

sunday, i hung out with jon in the city -- had some dim sum, watched a dirty shame (the new john waters movie), and then headed back to oakland, intent on wasting another sunday doing something somewhat ridiculous. we had some margaritas, watched some of the office, and then eventually got ourselves back to berkeley to watch the yes men on shattuck.

throughout the whole weekend i cried and i expressed fears and i told people things i thought i never would tell, something that still irks me a little bit.

on a very random aside, has anyone been on friendster lately? i just went on and it felt like i hadn't been there in years.

i don't want to be in band anymore, and it's scaring me a little bit because i'm not regretting that statement.

there's so many things i can list off that are pissing me off, but all that's gonna do is add another list of grievances that will irk more people. and i think i've already done that.

here i go disdaining again.
