Haha, I was thinking of chocolate advent calendars and such, but that is even sadder and lamer.

I may not collapse and die, but I'm pretty sure I will fail some of them. But it is all my fault, really, for failing a previous one and also deciding to retake a class this year, to improve my grade so that I can be a student assistant in it next fall and earn some much needed money. And the limited amount of studying I have done this semester could also be blamed, I guess. The fall semester is way too short :/ I guess I'm glad that we finish with all exams before Christmas, but it also kind of sucks that it is so much shorter than the spring semester.

And yes, making your own advent calendar (or a chocolate one, I guess) is definitely not the same! First of all, I couldn't afford it, but even if I could, it wouldn't be as exciting and fun and Christmassy. Part of the fun of an advent calendar is thinking back to when I was a kid and the advent time was all about being excited for Christmas, making ugly homemade gifts and baking and all that stuff, instead of worrying about exams. And it wouldn't be as fun if I knew what was in all the packages, and it's nice to get a little surprise every day, ranging from a box of mints to more expensive things. I am trying to figure out a way to hang it in my dorm room, but it's proving to be difficult. She didn't send the actual calendar-thing, because it is broken, so now I have to find a way to hang 20 gifts on the wall, in a room where I'm not allowed to make holes in the walls. Hm.

Glad you're only paying $10 for it, man. The game is really fun for a while, but it's nearly impossible to steel yourself into pushing through the repetitiveness until the bitter end.

Dear blog thread,

I met some cool people tonight at my friend's Thanksgiving dinner. There's some really cool new people in the Peace Corps here.

Love,
Me

This week has been SUPERWORKINGWEEK and I am feeling gooood. I am going to pass my exams! I am going to get into super universities! I am not going to be trapped here for the rest of my life!

I'm not sure how I'm going to manage to sustain my present level of work, plus my job, plus hockey, plus my film project, plus editing the student newsletter, without sacrificing sleep and food, but nevertheless it is working at the moment even though I feel like I'm skating on extremely thin ice.

A slight downside is that something is definitely wrong with my knee. When I'm running or when I vault over the wall to get to the bus (whcih I do on a regular basis because I am always too late to walk all the way round) it sort of gives way underneath me and hurts like holy shit, for about ten seconds, and then feels all wobbly. At some point I might take it off to a doctors and see what's up with it.

Oh and I got some post yesterday! My blood donor card arrived and it is red and shiny, and my blood can be given to 83% of the population (but not while I am using it, obviously).

Next step: organ donations! Soon a little bit of me will exist in sick people all across the nation!

Hey, blog thread, life is good right now.

Everything around me may be going to pot, I may have lost interest in college and work, but I'll be damned if I'm not enjoying every moment of it.

I don't even care about the inevitable downfall of this good mood.

I'm just that damn happy.
