Hmmm...well today was pretty uninteresting. I read some more of Sense and Sensibility this morning. Yes, I am aware that it is probably the literary equivalent of Dirty Dancing or some other classic chick flick, but I don't care. I want to read it anyway. Plus it's the only non-school related book I have here.

My Internet and Instant Messenger were unavailable for most of the day, so that meant no procrastinating :( I actually had to start studying for my philosophy final. For some weird reason, I ended up listening to New Found Glory for much of the day. I don't know why, I haven't listened to them in ages. I just felt like it today. They sing a cover of the theme song from the movie The Neverending Story that's pretty fun. I love that movie, it was one of those defining things that you remember about your childhood. I watched that movie dozens of times from when I was 5 until maybe 10 or 11. I loved it so much! I always wanted to find a strange, magical book and get trapped in the excessively freaky attic of my school (even though my school didn't have an attic) and ride on a fluffy dragon that looked like a giant dog with wings.

So just for fun, I've been reading some random people's blogs. It's so funny to read what other people write. One guy was writing about how he had an STD and was itching in certain places (haha), some lady wrote about how she despised her ex-husband, her husband's ex-wife, and her stepchildren (very crazy), and another guy was writing about how he and his wife had been divorced and remarried, but he wanted to have an affair and didn't understand how he should be expected to stay married to the same person for 30 years. Interesting. I love reading about other people's personal experiences. I guess I'm either really nosy or maybe searching for some real life drama. Some blogs are boring, all they have are news articles or pictures from the Internet, but some of them are very interesting. I found a couple that I really enjoyed reading. Yeah, now I really sound like a nerd, writing about how I like to read about the personal experiences of random people from the Internet. Whatever :) Anyway, I found this on someone's blog and thought it was neat, so I'm going to fill it out myself!
