Lots o' news

So much has happened since the last post! The big news, though, is:
I'm going to Indiana!
I know that seemed somewhat inevitable last post, but I got an 11th-hour acceptance from UVa, so there was much running around, calling people, etc.

I also had a great time at home, and a great visit to IU. I really like it there. And it was nice to be home, to relax, spend time with my parents, soak up the sun. (I actually got a little sunburned!)

And now I'm back in England. And it's been raining the last two days -- on and off. But I'm happy because I'm having a birthday party tonight (I turn 23 today!), and I get to see people. I officially have enough food for a small army -- sixteen chicken breasts, three bags of pasta (probably going to only cook 2, but they were 3 for 89p), three bags of salad greens, lots of veg for the salad, and three small cakes. I know what I'm going to be eating for the next few weeks: leftovers! But the sad thing is that even though I made all this food and I've invited a lot of people -- I invited 13, and between seven and ten are going to come -- I couldn't invite everyone I wanted to. :( So if you're reading this and you're in England and I didn't invite you, it's not because I don't like you. I will now post a list of people I don't like, and you can verify that you're not on it, if you want to be sure:

Just kidding. Wow, that would really be a bad idea. Plus, there genuinely aren't all that many people I don't like. Except for that Rebecca character. She's kind of stinky.

I do miss Vassar today.... I've been thinking about my birthday party last year and the massive quantities of dessert and our TA and people running in and out... good times. But I'm having fun here, and I'll have fun in Indiana.

Meanwhile, I should go convince my jet-lagged self that it's nearly time for lunch.
