so, i'm studying for the GRE. ugh. it's amazing ...ly tedious. i'm amazingly stupid. sure, i do okay, but so far i'm doing worse and worse. i did awesome on the diagnostic test that was supposed to tell me where my weaknesses are. apparently my weakness is in studying - i lost the element of surprise, and now i'm not good at the tests.
in other news, my roommate Emily picked up a certificate for a free month of Netflix. This could be bad - very bad. we got our first 3 movies, and watched them all within 3 days. that's at least a 200% increase over my previous month's movie watching. plus i went to the movies (!) and saw 3:10 to Yuma, which is good if you like dirty, strong men shooting at each other and riding horses over beautiful landscape. the worst part of the whole movie was when one man shot the bag of gunpowder hanging on another guy's horse and man and horse blew up (is that what would happen in reality?) it was incredibly gross.
in still other news, happy fall. it sure is happy here. the weather could not be more perfect. and i may have a new friend - there's a new girl at work, also a fresh college grad, who sits in my office and lives in Evanston. i can't tell if she likes me or not, or if i like her or not. i haven't had much time to chat. i'm going to have a dinner party next weekend, with my other friends from work, and i'm going to invite her. maybe this week i'll get her digits. i should have done this week, and showed her around town this weekend. i did tell her about the farmer's market, and where i do my grocery shopping.
anyhow. i guess i should keep doing practice tests. maybe i'll break through the wall soon, and start doing well again.
