Tuesday Baby

I just found out that it is a fact that the largest amount of babies are born on Tuesdays. This is actually a fact, due to the fact that nearly 26% of births are cesarians. This helps to sway the baby date, but why is it that people want to have babies on Tuesdays?

Today was pretty typical but extraordinary in its own way. I dropped off 10 bags of old clothes at the thrift store and couldn't help getting a new shirt, two skirts and a book. I drove into BK and had to park around the block because there was a fire around the corner. I went to my PTTV intern meeting and we all decided that we are going to do a show about the social implications of reality TV shows. After getting excited about my new project, I jetted up to Columbia to do some research and then met up with Kate for Thai. Afterward, I came home to a few hours of practicing guitar and then I hung out with my awesome roomies.

Just Friends?

I had a very long and tiresome day yesterday. Class was excellent, I recored some of it simply because I know it was the last day my fave prof would be lecturing and I wanted it to last longer. Haha. There is this really funny part where my prof was talking about giving spankings. I wont even go there in public, but me and Nicole were giggling...a lot. I will miss my very sexy prof's awesome lectures and sassy accent.

After class, I met up with the very inspirational and charismatic Kate. We caught up and she played me her new song. Like all of her songs, I loved it. This is the first time she used the word jesus in a song. A bit surprising for someone who is getting her masters in religion.

After spending hours on my work and miraculously never getting enough of it done, I met up with Blair for pizza. I wont gush over him any more, because after all we are only friends right now, even though I think we both know that there is so much more just waiting beneath the surface.

Columbia BureauCRAZY.

Yesterday was my first day of school. I REALLY enjoyed my Anthropology class. The teacher is a HOT older British man. (sigh) Too many people signed up for the class however, and preference had to be given to anthropology students...I got booted. I was pissed for a while today because I already bought the books and read a large portion of the reading for the week. Tomorrow I will be checking out that same professor's undergrad course with hopes of signing up for it as an independent study with extra work. What he teaches is just so relevant to what I want to do for my dissertation eventually(media and religion, dealing with secular and non-secular beliefs). It also doesn't hurt that the prof is gorgeous.

After a long day of schooling, I was tired but completely content. Even though I had spent a total of 2 hours on the subway, I couldn't have been happier. I am living my life's purpose. I love broadening my horizons and my mind. It feels really good to be in school again. I may have more highs and lows, but its way better than the monotony of static.

After the long haul back from Columbia to Williamsburg yesterday, Carrie and I met up for Thai and went to the Lazy Catfish for free PBR and watched the inauguration party. I hung out with a lot of great people..a usual occurrence in Brooklyn. I really feel like I belong here.

Today, I had to wake up at 7 to be at a mandatory class at 9. This class is a socialization and peer review class. It is different than any other class I have taken before in that each week we read a bunch of articles and then write a response. We then submit that response online and our peers are assigned to read it. The class is all about class discussion of the materials. The professor for this class is another good looking older man, but instead of the sexy accent, he's got a great sense of humor.

After class, I met up with Kate for lunch. I had a kick ass veggie burger with sweet potato fries. YUM. Then, Kate wanted to check out a Feminist seminar class over at Barnard. I went with her to check it out. It seemed really interesting, but it was packed and I don't think I could handle rejection again.

Tonight LOST is back. A few friends and I are having a mexican potluck and champagne to celebrate the event. I am making quesadillas.

OH. I e-mailed the guy who interviewed me for teach for America and we're supposed to be going out for coffee or something this week. He's kinda cute and I already know we have good conversations. We have our ivy league status and philanthropy in common, so I can't help but think that maybe we'll hit it off. I am probably just jumping to conclusions but what can I say? It's been a while since I found someone worth seriously liking.
