Three Weeks into School

Posted in Gibberish at 3:23 pm by Victoria

It’s been about three weeks since classes started, and we couldn’t be busier.
..ok well, Eric couldn’t be busier.

We’re happily taking two classes together, but other than that we have fairly different schedules. Not only is he busy over his own classes, but he’s trying to pull everything else together — from TA-ing to studying for the general & physics GRE’s to working in a physics lab during most of his free time so that he might just possibly be able to write something for his senior thesis.

I, merely a sophomore, feel much more relaxed.. and well, bored. I really appreciate the time Eric has taken aside for me though :) He’s been giving me movie nights, Prometheus lessons, and best of all, cooked meals ! <3 And then there are all those times when I become a rather troublesome annoying girlfriend and distract him while he does his homework. Like he responded to a friend yesterday, “Well, we were doing homework… and then she got bored. And you know, when she gets bored, I can’t get work done..”

Sorry Eric. =x

But amazingly, he still gets his work done, and ahead of time, too, so I don’t feel *too* bad :D

Poor Eric now is being sick and walking with a swollen ankle after accidentally hitting himself with his staff.

As for me, the only complaint I’ll whine about is..
my computer’s motherboard died ! :’(
Idk if I should get a new computer (total waste of my year old laptop), fix it and spend a third of the cost of my dead laptop, or what.. But at least I can use Eric’s .. since he’s too busy to use it anyways. :P

But yeahh.. thanks Eric for being so good to me :)

Alrighty, end of update and now study time. D:

So yesterday was my dear Eric’s birthday. We started celebrating the day before ;D with a dinner cooked by his housemates and a birthday cake thing afterwards. I viciously creamed Eric >D which made him look like he had a green beard 0=) unfortunately, we don’t have pics.. will have to ask his friends for them.

Sooo.. YESTERDAY. Started with sign language class at 9 in the morning and were freeeee for the rest of the day. :D So we had an unwrapping-present ceremony afterwards, which he had much fun with, having to unwrap 6 layers of gift wrap for his two presents (ok.. so I don’t have wrapping paper here at Wes and had to find..other solutions ;x).

^ Fourth layer of gift wrap.

Yes, they were from my Victoria’s Secret catalog. I more or less used up the entire thing..

And this is your birthday boy, with some of the stuff I got him over the summer including his bday presents: a birthday booklet card thing (which I spent half a summer on hahah x_x I know..pathetic :$), his two Victoria’s Secret gift-wrapped presents, Roo from Winnie the Pooh (just ’cause I call Eric “Roo” sometimes), Penelope the Pup (from FAO! ;D), and.. the duvet cover :D ehehehe.

So afterwards, we got dressed for In The Heights, a Broadway show written by and featuring a Wes alum. It was an awesome experience, to see the entire audience filled with Wes students, alumni, etc, and to then sing the Wesleyan Fight song in the theater with our mascot jumping up and down and all around on the stage, hahah. :D We got back pretty late, at like 1:45AMish, and had a good midnight-snack (aka dinner) while working on Sudoku together.

Overall, we didn’t do much but had a very good time :) (Patrick the Pup from FAO shown above ;D given by Eric)
