one more miracle

Posting this without reading any other reaction posts, which I don't usually do, but I don't have TIME to get lost in y'all's flailing because OMG ORGO FINAL TOMORROW AFTERNOON *hyperventilates*

( *FLAIL* )

I'm expected to STUDY after that? *whimper whimper*

I am a little bit drunk. And I just rewatched Folsom Prison Blues with Kelly. Good times.

I also wore my whore boots tonight. The ones that look like they'd be at home on Faith's feet. They make me want to be really slutty. Except how I'm completely not at all. Sigh.

I went to see Hot Fuzz with Rob tonight. One word: AWESOME. So fucking hilarious and ridiculous and just FANTASTIC. I about cried with laughter. The ending pretty much blew my mind with the awesome. I'm in love. Arthur Dent from Hitchhiker's Guide (Martin Freeman) had a cameo, as did Bill Nighy, and like ten thousand other British actors I've seen. Good times. I've decided I really love British humor - it's sharp, smart, cynical, dark, and sidesplitting. American humor? And by this I mean... Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, etc etc ad nauseum... makes me weep for humanity. I mean, sometimes it will make me laugh, but I always feel stupid for laughing. British humor doesn't assume you're stupid. I love that. This movie rocked my WORLD and you should all see it \o/

I need to be productive tomorrow. This depresses me.

(I am really not very drunk. The world just spins a bit when I stand up. But this mood icon is so very fun. I wish I had a Dean to wrangle me!)

1. Academic success - I just went to pick up the draft of my final paper for America in Black and White from my professor, and he was in his office when I got there. What he said about my paper blew my mind! The comment at the back starts, "I think you know this is a great paper. It seems thoroughly revised and proofread already." When I was talking to him about it, he said "You could hand this into a graduate class and it would stand on its own, no question." He further said that there was really no point in me revising it further, and that I could just hand it in then as my final draft. He talked about how clearly I laid out my argument in the introduction, and how skillfully I made use of all the material we've used in our class.

The funny thing is... I wrote this paper in about 3 hours the night before it was due. I had been thinking about it and taking notes for a few days, but I was just blocked on actually writing it up to the last moment. It felt like pulling teeth - I really didn't feel like I had a direction or a cogent argument to make. When I finished it, I was so relieved that I just gave it a quick glance over and printed it out. It's really astonishing to me that what I thought was substandard work from myself, done hastily and with much stress, would be praised so highly by my professor. I mean, I knew I was being a bit hard on myself... but I definitely did not expect this. Wow. So yes, grinning like an idiot :)

2. Pretty slashy boys - So while I was walking home from that, still grinning idiotically, there were these boys playing frisbee on the green, and they seemed to be finishing up and walking away, and it ended up that two of them were holding it between them, and it was like they were holding hands through the frisbee. I clearly heard their friend go "Awww... it's love!" Grinning even more idiotically! So adorable.

3. WINCHESTER DAY!!!! - I watched Nightshifter at work to get myself in the mood, and oh, BOYS! *draws a trillion hearts* I love forever and ever amen :D Can't wait for tonight! Yay!

Just realized something!
