spring has sprung; i'm sure of it. it's damn near the melting point out there (let's pretend that's not the same as the freezing point for just a minute because that makes it seem considerably less warm) and it's only supposed to get nicer. i'm planning on bringing my winter coats home for the season this weekend so it damn well better not be too cold from here on out. who am i kidding...this will last for a week then we'll be getting snow measurable only with yard sticks.

on a more optimistic note, umd swept minnesota this weekend meaning i'm a WINNER (if only by association). after watching miracle on saturday, i kept on cheering for duluth's finest to beat those damn soviets. it was a very hockey weekend and that was a-okay with me.

anxiety attacks have been sneaking up on me when i least expect them. it's now the fifth week and homework is coming at me in full force. to top it off i'm supposed to be a real reporter-like person for one of my classes and i've come to realize i'm not cut out for this at all. one day of the "newsroom" atmosphere and i already think my editor has poor news judgement. it's going to be a long ten weeks, folks.
