Remember to Breathe

Ya gots to work with what you gots to work with. - Stevie Wonder

It feels nice to be able to blog again. After a week of academic and prom-related shitload, I feel like I can finally relax, like I finally remembered to breathe.

Although I know there are still a lot of tasks to fulfill, some of them I'm actually excited for. Basically those are the non-academic projects, like stuff for Teacher's Day, the class jacket (Marxista! Structuralista! Feminista! Artista!—lol.), and what Karen has entitled "The Obama Project", or "Project Obama", whichever came first. I think I'm also kind of excited for the Investigatory Project Exhibit. I admit I'm still quite in shock knowing that my group's IP was selected for the exhibit since, okay, it was pretty crappy. But then again we had an okay concept, I think, and I'm obviously proud of everything we've done. I think the group worked seriously hard, and we do deserve it in that sense.

Aside from all that, I saw some pretty good movies recently, like The Reader and In Bruges. I also saw Cadillac Records and Body of Lies, which unfortunately weren't that good, but they weren't so bad.

Oh yeah, and prom. It was definitely fun, with all the dancing and the photography and dinner, but it was actually pretty short. I was expecting just a little less than epic or epic itself for the junior prom, but it was sadly ordinary; you just wear a better dress. (Gah, I wanted to after-party.)
