The Good, the Bad, the Ugly

The Good today was the perfect, beautiful weather. Ironically better weather than what I hear LA is having with all the fires and dry heat. AND I fell asleep and didn't really get to study as much as I should have for an exam, but the test has been moved to tomorrow morning! So more time to study.... this might be part of the bad. ha ha. Also went on a Boat ride! wooooo hoooo! It's funny drinking and dancing with faculty and staff, but this program is pretty "open" that way, I guess. You see the lady who was the gatekeeper to your admissions and financial aid getting down with the 60 year old woman who teaches field work. It's... AWESOME... and a little weird. Anyway, so there we were, all 300 some social work grad students on a boat... I couldn't get Andy Samberg's song out of my head: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOvaCV6uQp8

And for those who know me, you know I don't like beer, but I found myself on the roof of a boat, sipping Bud Light just like Obama, looking out at the Statue of Liberty and thinking, it doesn't get better than this.



The Bad today was news that I might need to move out of my place yet AGAIN, although not back to the mold-infested room which they are currently repairing. More updates on that as time goes on. By this weekend, I will have my permanent (hopefully) place of abode. I checked out the room I might possibly move into, and it's maybe 1.5 times the size of my room, but the bathroom smells like piss, I think because there are also 2 boys living on that floor. It smells like effin roses in the place I'm currently at.... okay, so not roses, but at least some kind of Pantene Pro V.

The Ugly today was an unsightly rash that appeared on my cheek after I used a certain face wash.... it's still there ARGH, but fading and somewhat hidden under mounds of foundation. Thank GOD for makeup. And NOW... time to study research... YAY.
