supposedly, i've been quite melancholy lately, but today i was "...all smilie."

go figure.

so things are shaping up beautifully. i'm going to take real, live academic courses next year, but not so many that i'll have a nervous breakdown.

in theory.

i got something in the mail for a summer "discovery" program. in almost every picture, the students are jumping. for what? why, for spending thousands of dollars to have the best summer of their life, of course!

today is lovely.

and i am done.
