[senior paper = finished]
i just finished my senior paper. or at least i hope so. hopefully my teacher won't find it to be so bad that i have to type up another draft. that just wouldn't be fun.. no it wouldn't. i was stupid enough to open another file when i finally finished my paper on my old computer. stupid old computers that don't update themselves. so the whole half of my last paragraph and my conclusion were deleted. i had a grand old time trying to think what i wrote before while freakin out that i was so horribly stupid. =P

[Experience Illinois]
going to go visit UIUC April 4-7. really excited for it. there is a possibility that the plane tickets i booked didn't go through, but we'll worry about that when it's a sure fact =P realyl excited to see my friends again and to hang out with ellen, michelle, matt, and george since we're all visiting the same time. Experience Illinois is something for students who were accepted to go to so that they could experience a little bit of college life at UIUC (durh), and u have to be invited to go. I was not invited but i called them up and asked if i could be invited anyway. haha, i feel so arrogant. that's me! =) On a side note, i've been thinkin a lot about my old town and i want to go visit naperville and my old house sometime.. maybe next spring break. not winter break. NUH UH!! cuz this winter break it's URBANA 2003!! who's excited?!!? i am!!!!

[mmm chocolate]
i have been spoiled by chocolate lately. matt bought me 9 chocolate covered strawberries and my mom got me godiva chocolate ice cream with dark chocolate hearts. SO GOOD. i guess it's a bad thing that i'm goin to the dentist tomororw =X (yes eric, AGAIN)

[6 meals. we be fat]
les, laurie and i are starting a new project in art where we're goin to paint on 6 different canvases. on each canvas we're goin to paint a different meal: breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea time, desert, and midnight snack. with each meal, we're goin to do a dif perspective and the canvases are HUGE. we're realyl excited on starting the project. hehe. i got all corny and sentimental today and was like "aw guys! we have 6 paintings and there's 3 of us! we can each bring 2 to college and when we meet up again, we can reunite the paintings!!" (awwww . hehe. shush) also workin on a door. art is some fun stuff. weigy is the man.
