Yes, I'm getting sappier by the moment, but that's because Ben always calls me such cute sorts of things. While typing the title just now, I remember at Ben's brother's wedding, we were sitting at a table smooching and his cousin walked by and said, "O, you two go get a room!" I thought it was hilarious - Cindy's a funny lady.
Anyhoo, I've been quite sick lately, but I'm starting to feel better again. Last night I felt so well that I just kept working on my project in studio, right up until 4:30 am - and then I went back to my room and worked on my Japanese homework till 6 am, when I finally realized my brain was just too tired to concentrate, so I napped for a couple hours, finished that up, went to class, turned it in, and here I am. My site model's huge, I have to store it on it's side or no one can walk through the door, and when I'm completely done with it, it's going to take at least two people to bring it to crits - I hope it will fit through the door...I should check on that really quickly when I go back to studio in an hour...Still, staying up was a bad idea, I couldn't concentrate at all in Japanese...
On another interesting note, when I went back to my room for some dinner, that was around 10 last night, I checked my email and I was facebook-friended by a girl who was my best friend in elementary school. She has changed quite a bit from the way she was the last time I saw her - which was at the end of eighth grade. She's now playing in a band called Five Feet Deep (or was it Five Feet Under...no, I doubt that...) that consists of her and two boys and all of them are shorter than I am. Okay, well the tallest is my height...But anyway, since I myself am not considered a paragon of vertical bounty, I have to say, that's impressive. Life seems to have improved for her since I last saw her.
It made me wonder also, about middle school. If I had looked into the future then, could I have known that six years from then, she'd be studying psychology and playing in a band, or that I'd be an art student that has to also study physics? Looking back, I can see that the pschology and the music were quite logical for her - she always listened to interesting music and could pick out tunes on the piano with no difficiulty, as for the psychology, I think she mentioned that sometime... As for me, I always knew that I'd be an architect, but I didn't really know what "architect" implied. I always thought I'd make pretty houses like the ones in Architectural Digest, or be a fashion designer, or even a computer engineer like my daddy. I never figured I'd spike my hair whenever I have chance though, nor did I think I'd ever go anywhere other than Harvard. It's amazing how different life turns out in the end.
