Hello readers! I know it has been far too long since I have made available my wit and charm for your amusement and edification. Wait no longer!
Highlights: I've been going to school, I've been going to church, I've been watching Dr. Who, things are going well at the lab, and my parents are comming to visit me for my birthday! I am planning social events! I am also sick again. :-/
Current Mood: relaxed
Details: School has been comming along. I am working on a paper for my syntax class on LFG and how it explains suprasegmentals in ASL, focusing on negation. I am 5 for 5 A's on Greek tests, including a midterm, and also got a perfect score on my SLA midterm. Good stuff!
I have been enjoying Midtown Friends these past few weeks. They have had several styles of service and each of them has been beneficial, and provide good fodder for conversation with Blake. The group tends to have dinner together after services and I think I'm going to start attending. Church is done early enough that I should be able to go for a bit and still get enough sleep.
Dr. Who is awesome- witty and evocative. If you have not seen it and enjoy science fiction...what are you waiting for??
I have found my groove at the lab. Currently that means coding signs for a database for an experiment. Today is an exciting day- we are filming the stimuli for a project in which I will be involved. I will be learning how to use Final Cut Pro and also how to do a little bit of programming.
Next weekend I will turn 27, and my parents and my sister will be comming to visit!!!!!!! I have a lot to do in preparation for their stay so I don't have to work the whole weekend, so I will be a busy bee this next week.
I am also working on my costume for the Dickens' Faire which, when completed, should be rather stunning provided I got all the measurements right, etc. If I have time I will make a fur-trimmed cloak to accompany it. :-D Blake and I will be going Thanksgiving weekend to the faire. He is also taking me to see the Trans Siberian Orchestra that weekend. I am SO excited!! Then in early December, we will be going on a double date with Matt and Rachel to Apple Hill. I will also be hosting a Chaunukah party, complete with latkes and dreidel, at my house after finals. Blake took time off work so he can spend a week at Christmas with me in SoCal!!!! We're working out trip logistics, but I am beyond elated that I get to share this special season with him.
I have a cold again, which is a bummer, but this too shall pass and hopefully not lead to bronchitis.
Time to code, so farewell, dear readers!
