Monthly Outlook: December 2008

Recap: My labwork still sucks, but my professor thinks something is salvageable. Meanwhile NaNoWriMo went pretty well, despite my growing hatred for the story (actually it went down until about when I hit 30k or so, and then built up again). I didn't exercise or study French, which was bad, and I drank more hot cocoa and tea than I ever did (spending money...) I got my brother to give me his keyboard, so I jammed a little on it, but haven't touched my oboe. Maybe I should... Anyway, NaNoWriMo was awesome and I feel much happier because of it, even though I still don't have friends or a life!

Outlook: Well, it's going to be a mad dash to the end, which will be December 16 for me. December 17 I'm headed back to Michigan. I will take some time off to go to the volleyball games (regionals at UW!) and will probably need to work this weekend and next weekend around those times. I'm actually a bit sick right now (and missed the last 2 home volleyball games), so I hope to feel better! Sometime I will go shopping, though I keep being lazy... Hmm... Somewhere in here I'll start a mini writing challenge (500 words/day minimum on anything), try to learn some more French (Berlitz self-teacher lessons 21-40), read some stuff in Spanish (Gabriel Garcia Marquez and his famous book, maybe). Definitely going to be a month inside.

Events/Activities: volleyball regionals!, going home

Goals: resume French studying, keep writing, not be so sick, get some lab results!
