In Which Carmen Spazzes
Aug. 23rd, 2005 07:42 pmI spent the day alternately angsting about D's departure and angsting about my own. With each passing minute, I realize how woefully unprepared for either I was, and how much I still have left to do. I'm leaving exactly a week from tomorrow, and I still haven't figured out what I'm taking with me.
Of course, this whole mindset was only fueled by the fact that I spent hours listening to the most wishy-washy sentimental music I own alternated with System of a Down and Nine Inch Nails and Three Days Grace. Yes, I realize that my taste in music defies all logic. But it's not my fault that loud, driving music is the only thing that'll keep me awake when I'm sitting in a back room, filing endless folders.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison was ranked as the #1 party school in America by the Princeton College Review today. I've gotten a lot of grief from my friends about that, since I'm rather renowned for my general unwillingness to go to parties of any kind. I'm always the one who shows up late, the one who goes home early, and the one who doesn't drink anything that doesn't come straight out of a container I open myself. Sure, I'll hang out until two in the morning with a few people I know well, but I hate parties with a passion.
The Benadryl just started to kick in, so I'll be out like a light in about another ten minutes. Work tomorrow. Sleep tonight.
