"Oh shit! It's 1:00AM! All I've done is put together my keg race team and make the party invitation! I need to shower and get to bed so I can make it to church at 8 tomorrow morning!"

Rooming with Maureen was the best idea EVARRRRR!

p.s.- Maureen didn't even get her team together since she got too depressed when she realized how badly the Chem E's are going to lose to the Mech E's!

A 2005 report by researchers at four British universities indicated that a high I.Q. hampers a woman's chance to marry, while it is a plus for men. The prospect for marriage increased by 35 percent for guys for each 16-point increase in I.Q.; for women, there is a 40 percent drop for each 16-point rise.

...........

But it is equally naive and misguided for young women now to fritter away all their time shopping for boudoirish clothes and text-messaging about guys while they disdainfully ignore gender politics and the seismic shifts on the Supreme Court that will affect women's rights for a generation.

Good thing I like cats a lot.

What if you do care about gender politics? Then is it alright to fritter away time shopping for boudoirish clothing and text messaging about guys? Haha. Not that I ever do that.

I think I've dug my self out of the slump I've been in for the past couple of weeks. Now I've got to pull my life back together and all will be well in the world.

This weekend was eventful- Maureen's 20th on Friday, and Club Wilkins on Saturday. After getting dressed and ready on Saturday, Lydia and I walked downstairs only to discover it was pouring rain- not exactly ideal weather for walking to a party. We briefly considered staying home, but decided to grab an umbrella and raincoat since we didn't have any other plans for the evening anyway. We dreaded that the party might be empty due to the weather, but thankfully there was a great turnout and I think it's safe to say that both Lydia and I had a good time.

Now I've got to focus on school and not be distracted by the upcoming weekend.
