Texty

I'm so exhausted tonight, but pretty happy.

Things were going well on production for the SPFH, despite our lack of an EIC, who was out sick today. Then it all kind of broke down in the last three hours, as there was much wrasslin' over story content. Um, guys? Why didn't we address this stuff in PRE-production?

*slaps people around*

The net result is that I'm finally home, and yet I have to get up in six hours to do the bloody psych quiz that is now a week overdue. Ugh. At least I studied for it last week, thinking it would be held on Thursday (it wasn't, and all I had to show for being there was a bruised knee from slipping and falling on the wet floor in the building.) Now let's hope I remember something from this. Bleh.

However, some damned good news came out of today's stuff:

1. I'm confirmed as online editor for the Student Magazine From Hell for next quarter. Normally, they don't allow people who haven't written for the thing, yet, to be an editor, but they're desperate enough for my m@d w3b skillz that they want me in this position. Honestly, I think the SPFH would keep me in that capacity if they could. I wrote a 14-page letter to successor today, outlining what has to be done to make the paper's site functional each issue. I briefly mentioned this in class today, and the person who's taking over the position looked like she'd just been hit by a bus. I feel her pain.

2. My workshop went off well, I think. No one looked bored to death, at least.

3. The best news of all: I'M GRADUATING IN JUNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Yes, this warrants excessive punctuation. Sue me.) I found out today that they moved the advanced reporting class that was conflicting with the meetings for the SPFH/SMFH, thereby forcing me to either beg for a waiver for my last term or go to summer term to be on one of the publications. So I now have my schedule all worked out for the next two terms. I get to put in my application for graduation this Friday.

*glee*

The rest of the week is still busy--dead week my ass--but I'm seeing light at the end of the tunnel. I'm also still putting together that Evite for our party on the 17th. Save the date! Also, if you can't make it to that one, we'll have a lot more free time between then and year's end, so we're up for whatever socializing folks want to do--our pad, your pad, going out, whatever. I am SO looking forward to seeing folks.

Got grades back for my psych exam. 45/50. 90%. And I haven't been to a single class since the first one.

A quick perusal of the scores on the sheet...

Average score was 37.

No one got a perfect score--the best was 48.

Only 20 people out of 187 got score of 45 or better.

21 people failed. Eep.

I think I'm doing well, all considered. I'll probably study a bit more for the next one.


A little depressed today. A few days ago, my parents told me that this place is closing.

It may not seem all that big a deal, but consider that 20 years ago, this was the ONLY place in Reno that sold espresso. It was the only euro-style cafe in the whole town, and it was open late. So the RHPS crowd would always descend on it, in full regalia, every Saturday after the show. Oh, the stories I could tell about my time there...
