just for the record ames, even though there was a giant sticky on your monitor asking you to tape lost, you STILL managed to not get it right! you tape the lost episode on the LOST tape, not the DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES tape!!!! gah! n'est pas difficile!

anyway, the whole reason for her taping for me was because i was at the new opening of the vegas bar tonight. very nice atmosphere, there was brie, and i had some, and well...you can imagine the results. hahaha. and there was a performance by three drag queens, it's the first time i've seen THAT. VERY interesting!

which reminds me of alicia, i'm not sure why, but yesterday we met up after my pr class and we were supposed to go to alan's little birthday shindig at the bedford ballroom, but that didn't work out, so we ended up walking around yorkville before settling at brownstones with tiramisu and decafe lattes. ah, heaven!

and cha is going to teach me how to knit! or she's going to knit me something, either way there is wool involved.

these last couple of weeks have been interesting, and i thought i'd blog about it but then i got tired so i'm just going to leave it at that.

things to do before i leave this weekend:

- send beth my new presentation slides
- send erin my apa bibliographies
- send pauline my presentation script
- pack my bag
- don't forget textbook (test tuesday!!)
- bring french stuff to review
- CLEAN MY ROOM

this is just crazy. i never get home before 10:30pm anymore. i have no time for my friends of family. i have to TAPE tv shows to watch another day. plus i'm tired.

french isn't going the way i want it to. i feel like i'm being screwed over with the amount of time i am paying for. the teacher is always rushing...why are you rushing? we're paying to LEARN not to sort of not understand what's going on. all the vocab i know is because i already knew it, i'm not learning any new vocab because she doesn't like getting up off her ass to the whiteboard (which is right behind her) to right the spelling. for example, wednesday she said "souhait" and i heard "sweat." i'm a visual learner, and this doesn't seem to be working. cat and i are pretty upset and we're going to be looking into the one at spadina and bloor for january. as for now, we have to make do with what we have now.

as for pr, it's been great. my group is great, pauline is forever giving me new jewellery every time i see her (she owns a jewellery company called lolobubsisters.) and we go out for lunch and have martinis and sushi. it's great. at least, not everyday is all work! especially since i work for orthodox jews and so i get a whole bunch of days off this month! ;p

either way, i get to spend quality time this weekend with matt, shelley and carmi. yay!

happy thanksgiving everyone!
