It's really nice to be back in Troy for the week- catching up with old friends, watching the entirety of How I Met Your Mother, doing necessary things like laundering my entire wardrobe and cleaning out my iTunes.

I'm heading to Cleveland (the Land of Cleves!) on Friday. I've actually never been, so I'm pretty excited. How does a girl live in Ohio her entire life and never go to Cleveland? It's going to be great. I'm staying with Brian at Case, and we're going to go to an art museum and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and to see Star Trek with two of our friends from Denison (including Eddie the Mad Australian, one of my favorites of the random cast of entertaining characters I've assembled around me at school).

And, I'm moving into my apartment on (probably) Monday. It'll be the first time I've ever had a proper apartment which actually requires cooking for myself and cleaning my own bathroom and such. I'm really looking foward to it. I'm on campus, but it's down the hill in the village of Granville, and it's going to be a lovely and quiet summer.

Well. Time to go lie outside with a book and my iPod, I think. Oh summer.

I finished my last final about an hour and a half ago! I am now completely free for two whole weeks, and then I'll be living at school surrounded by several really good friends, making good money for the rest of the summer.

Things with Brian are amazing. I can't believe he's been sitting there under my nose for nearly 8 months and I didn't notice, until one day I just did. I am a pretty happy person just in general, but at this exact moment in time I don't think I can pinpoint a single significant thing about my life that I am unhappy with. Just, like. Really, really ridiculously shout-it-from-the-rooftops happy.

Alright, summer. Let's do this. I am ready for you and you are going to be amazing.

ALSO, HAPPY 1000TH POAST, MEME! \o/ I CAN'T BELIEVE I'VE BEEN WITH YOU FOR 974 OF THEM :DDD:

finals >:(

Om nom nom free custard with brownie bits from the little ice cream place in the Village, courtesy of my college :9 Also, today they brought a ton of puppies to campus and just turned them loose in a giant playpen on the quad, and we got to play with them and hold them :DDD. Sometimes this place really does feel like camp, if you happened to go to camp with a lot of drunk, entitled twentysomethings.

Tonight I'm going out to dinner with my three best friends here at school. We met in the very first week of freshman year, and every year we get dressed up all fancy and go out to celebrate another successful year. It's one of my favorite traditions.

Brian is trying to get me to start reading Neil Gaiman. He's loaned me Neverwhere, and I'm wondering what people think of it? Fantasy's not a genre I'm very familiar with, but I'm definitely going to give it a shot.

This is the second straight day I've had Scissor Sisters stuck in my head, not that I'm complaining. Probably because yesterday was the last day of classes and I'm all in celebration mode. Oh, speaking of music- every season I put together a playlist in iTunes of the songs I was listening to for those couple of months. Would anyone be interested if I UU'd?

\o/ OOH! DON'T YOU GIVE ME THEM BLUES! I GOT MAGIC IN MY DANCING SHOES! \o/

Um um uuuum. Let's see. The Franz Ferdinand concert last night was intense. I've seen a lot of shows in the last six years or so, but this was easily top five. New!bf and I spent most of it screaming like idiots and sweating all over the place and making *___* faces at each other, it was basically the perfect Saturday night. Alas, our plans to kidnap Alex Kapranos for a wild sexy threesome fell through, just like our plans last week for Neko, but what can you do.

Other than that, it's just been finals finals FINALLLLS until I want to scoop my eyeballs out with a melonballer. So many papers, so many tests. Origins of Europe on Wednesday (the last time I will be taught by Hot Davis, as he's going on sabbatical next year ;_;), Spanish and poli-sci on Friday (I think?), and work at the library in my downtime.

I lost my wallet last Friday and I haven't found it yet. I'm just pretending it didn't happen, I think. All my IDs, my debit card, my insurance information...I can't deal with this during finals, I just can't /o\.

All in all, life is good but busy! Both looking forward to summer and nervous about it- my friend and I scored a really, really amazing apartment here on campus. But I'm kind of dreading the moment my employer discovers I know nothing about technology.

Hey, this is the_powerlines over on LJ. I wasn't sure whether or not I was going to get a DW account, but I figured I might as well. I'm not sure how much I'll use it, though.
