pain and disco.

so om shanti om was everything i had wanted it to be and more. hilarity and pathos! dancing and singing! reincarnation and stuffed tigers! the 1970's! attractive men! beautiful women! dastardly villians, complete with thin mustaches! seriously, you guys. bollywood. why have i been ignoring it for so long? also, i kind of want to marry shahrukh khan now. and apply maybelline make-up with deepika padukone.

number of weeks at university completed: one. it's...okay so far. chinese is going pretty well i guess. my main teacher is hilarious and awesome, but we only have her on mondays and fridays. the rest of the week we have a t.a., who is really nice but it's harder to get the exact way we should be pronouncing things from her. i still don't know for sure if "zhu" should be pronounced with a "j"-sound or a "zds"-sound. oh well. my women's history class seems promising. my professor is adorable. he showed a simpsons episode on the first day. what is not to like. but i don't know. i'm just not loving u of a as much as i thought i would. i'm sure it will get better but everyone just seems like an asshole so far. which can't be true but i don't know. i just kind of want to go back to pima and take fun classes forever. which is so, so lame. but whatever. i'm sure it will get better.

it is my birthday next week! usually i get really excited about birthdays because i am tweleve. but this year i don't really care. i have a lot going on. i work on my birthday this year, i forgot to ask for it off. so i basically have a four-hour time period for birthday fun, because i have school too. oh well. this is what happens when you get old. maybe i will run away to india in those four hours. and say ommmm shanti ommmm. and then all the cool boys will make some noise and say ommmmm shanti ommmm. SERIOUSLY GUYS, THIS BOLLYWOOD THING IS GETTING SERIOUS.

you know what's bad about facebook? finding out things about people that make you sad, aka someone you love dearly joining the mccain/palin group! baww. this now prompts me to link to today's shortpacked. moose burgers! i relate to robin in so many ways. okay, maybe it's only because of her name. whatev. also, since i am talking about comics, DORA'S HAIR LOOKS LIKE CRAP! i should write j. jacques a rambling letter. except i shouldn't because then i would be a crazy fantard. ah well. this entry is long, sorry!
