Does anyone else think the newly released British (male) sailor hostages are, um...pretty cute? And they're all dressed like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad! Go figure!
Why does everyone keep blocking youtube? First Turkey, now Thailand. Oh, perhaps I'm being culturally insensitive.
Well, I'm in a cynical mood because today's been a horrible day. Except for a bright light in the middle that was my Transnational Shi'ism class, I had to take a test at 9 this morning and another at 6:30 this evening. And I'm sick, with a horrid cough and a stomachache. Plus, it snowed. And it was wet. I'm too consumed with schoolwork right now to care about the weather, but there's no arguing that the weather subliminally affects my mood. So here I am, disgruntled about the weather and angry that my prof asked about one of the FEW concepts with which I wasn't familiar and I proceeded to BS the answer, but I'm about to eat one of Heidi's brownies. And it's Holy Week! There's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

awww, Laura, it's good to write about these things, get them off your coughing chest...
aw, those sailors are darling. it's funny, because in the back of my mind I was kind of worried about the hostages, but since I don't really read the news and I've been so busy, I didn't know what was happening and then on Friday my roommate told me they were probably going to let them go and I felt much better.
