minkhollow: (shrews!)
And now, the choosing of the rooms:
I am in 209 (next to Hil!). Trina is in 205 ('tis a corner; apparently 213 is a double these days, and most of the floor was gone by the time I got in anyway). Erin is upstairs, over Trina. Ann and Christine are downstairs, in the double with a bathroom.
All in all, a successful endeavor.
In other news: I approve of this sunshine business. I do not approve of this hormones business, but when do I ever? My History of Magic paper is half done, and I won't get any farther tonight; I need to do the responsy thing.
I also approve of discovering there are people on this campus who know what I'm talking about when I start in on the intricacies of Cincinnati.
minkhollow: (all right. tahiti!)
Dear Ptorrey:
We are in your dorm, taking your singles (and double).
No, really, we mean it this time.
All your base are still belong to us, Snakes in a Moving Group.

me: ::pokes about Internets before lunch; checks email::
email: ::has something from Res Life called Error in Senior Hall Choosing::
me: okay... ::reads::
Res Life: So we screwed up our singles quotas. And we're gonna open up more for seniors, but that means we have to do senior hall choosing all over again. Your numbers won't change, and people who picked early likely won't be affected, but.
me: ...A plus, guys. A plus.
Meanwhile, I'm doing my advisor-appointment bits over email. I love technology.
minkhollow: (huzzah!)
Dear Ptorrey:
The Snakes Have Landed. We are in your dorm, taking your singles (well, and a double).
All your base are belong to us,
Snakes in a Moving Group
(...yeah, still have the adrenaline thing going. Does it show? XD)
minkhollow: Robert Redford pointing, from Sneakers (sometimes i don't understand myself)
You know how sometimes you get a song stuck in your head, and then iTunes has it? Yeah, that. That would be the subject line.
Tiny, badly-photocopied print is so very much not my friend.
I have a spot in one both of the history seminars I applied for. That is a helpful thing.
Friend of mine thinks my moving group's nuts for going for Ptorrey. But the point is it's a good dorm despite its unpopularity. Besides, singles of godlike.
minkhollow: (do not go gentle)
There was an impromptu tour of Ptorrey after class this afternoon. Got to see the inside of an open double; built-in furniture appears to be the order of the day. Also, those hallways are GINORMOUS. I approve, after the teeny ones here.
Also: Dear history department, demanding seminar applications before advising week starts would be easier to live up to if the course descriptions were available... oh, I don't know, more than a day in advance. ::shrugs:: One of the ones I'm interested in is with the Bohemian Politics prof, so I mentioned it before class. Hopefully that'll help.
Also also, having a canon to play through is FUN.

So I just did epic battle with the Housing Lottery fish.
Group's hall choosing number is 271, Trina's room choosing number is 107, and mine is 109.
...Yeah, I think we're good to go for Ptorrey. And I think that'll at least be the two of us on Hil's floor, even. Hope the fish is generous to the rest of you.
minkhollow: (holy wood magic)
Dear rugby team: Get Your Greek On?
No, really. Get Your Greek On? First you kidnap our title, and then you try for a Greek theme a day or something after the Classics Society's toga party?
I think we get points for that. The points that you lose from it.
In other news, Snakes in a Moving Group is rolling right along.

Got back to campus Sunday night. Promptly did nothing yesterday due to combination of hormones and stress (so much crap to do, so little time). Today is a mental health day due to said stress - I'd only have more of it if I'd gone to my three-hour class today.
But I'm feeling better now, and Snakes in a Moving Group is open for business.
I need to get through this crap, find out when next semester's classes are going up for great history seminar applications, and look into summer storage (note to self: prod the girls upstairs to that end). Perhaps later there will be RPage.
Also, Quin gave me reading material, mostly in preparation for pseudo-Egyptian hijinks at [livejournal.com profile] outsideinn. It's v. fun times.

it's that time again )
What I learned last night: Some people just can't handle sarcasm. That's their own lookout, I'm inclined to think. (Note to world: I requested a moratorium on the seventh-grade behavior in my life. That didn't mean cut back on the Internets end and increase the real-life end. Srsly.)
minkhollow: (best of Queen fandom)
In honor of the housing lottery bulletin going out, SNAKES IN A MOVING GROUP BUSINESS:
*Trina! You have to designate your proxy for all this fun stuff. I'm not entirely sure whether you'll be able to before mid-March, but that bit's not in my hands. Also, Ann wants in on the fun - that all right with you?
*Erin! It looks like you need to be squared away to participate by the end of March, I can bring the bulletin to Renegades tomorrow or sommat if you'd like.

I think I'll actually have to proofread the bulletin and give it back to Res Life this year. They make the same typos/grammatical mistakes every time. ::twitch::
We return you to your regularly scheduled Internets.
