Weird dreams (and also mini life update)

Had a bunch of weird dreams for the past two days, I wonder if it's what I've been eating before bed (odd stuff that i don't usually have. Seseme rice balls and ...drat, can't remember. Might've been Chai tea...). Usually I'm out like a light, or have fun anime adventure dreams (Had a whole dream of a really awesome new Slayers series *the WHOLE series*)...

Anyway..the one on Thursday was the strange one. I dreamt that I was in an auditorium/movie theatre type place (not as odd as it sounds, the Pacific Film Archive is kind of like that, and I've had classes in there...comfy seats, dim lighting, good air conditioning...made not sleeping in class very difficult) and apparently the people there were voting for...the president of the student government. Huh. Go figure...And when the count was tallied and the results revealed...The winner was Majo!

Seriously, I was like (in the dream) "when did I even run for this position??" And the name was 'Majo', not my real name, so that's even stranger, in retrospect.

So I went on stage and made a speech, which got me boo-ed (I started off pretty well...but apparently no one liked my part about working hard to make things better...hm, go figure). It was kinda depressing...

In fact, I'm starting to wonder if that'd edge out of the category of 'weird' and into the category of 'nightmare'.

I was also using my umbrella as a microphone (and it worked fine)...Ahh, gotta love dream dynamics.

And then I woke up and was like "That was...very strange." Especially considering I'd NEVER run for something like president of a student government. I'm not THAT masochistic...^_^;

The second one from last night was kind of weird too. I can't remember details but it started off with my mom and I going...shopping. I hate shopping. But I was walking in front of her and a simple clothing store turned into this giant mall and my mom disappeared when we reached the escalators and became the RA for my dorms last year instead. I can't remember the rest of it, but something pink was involved...

Gotta stop eating strange things before bed.^_^;;

In other news, the 60 packets of apple cider are suffering severe losses from the Majo-attack...I average 4-5 a day, so that doesn't bode well for making the box last...Got my prospectus back this morning (the draft, anyway) and have to think about it some more, because the prof thinks it'd be better to change the angle and make it a model on decision making. Will have to dig up that article that some accomplished economist wrote about this topic and see what happens...

Did my reading for my policy brief for developmental econ. It was on economics and civil wars...very depressing stuff. Will need to write a short paper on that soon...maybe today if I have time.

Handball tournament this weekend. I can't believe it but apparently since the women's team captain graduated last year, I'm now the highest ranked female player on the team. That sounds nice, but we only have, what?, 4 girls? *sweatdrop* And here I've barely crawled out of the novice division...

Ah, well. Will do my best anyway, and hope for the best too.

MIDTERMS ARE OVER! Now there are only finals...@_@ *looks down* Oops, I've mentioned that already.

Have to plan trip to China and Taiwan for winter break...@_@

Ok...going to stop writing nonsensical journal entries and ...I don't know, do something else till class starts.^_^;

Majo
