Okay, say it with me- “BARACK OBAMA 2008!” It’s getting so close! All US citizens 18 and over, who have not already registered to vote, please do so NOW! No matter what your party affiliation is, please vote. Though I have to admit the sight of Sarah Palin makes me cringe. Nope, global warming is not caused by humans at all. We’re gonna sit around and watch the polar bears die while you shoot your moose. Eck… she kicks back the progression of science, not to mention women’s rights (her stance on Roe v. Wade makes me shudder), about 50 years.

I feel completely in over my head this semester. I’ve taken on way more than I can handle- classes (it’s my senior year!), the LSAT and law school applications, and executive board positions in my sorority. I can only hope to trudge through this semester without fucking up too badly. It’s only the third week of classes and I’m waiting for it to be over!

I went up to New York the weekend before school started for my sorority’s formals and it was pretty fun. I discovered this Korean Spa in Flushing, I’m not sure what it was called, but it was pretty much heaven on earth! Ok, maybe not but it was soooo relaxing- two whole floors of hot tubs and saunas to choose from. I highly recommend it if you ever get the chance to go there.

I miss Europe. I know, I was complaining about it in the last post but thinking back on it, it wasn’t that bad. I think I’m having that “I wish I were anywhere but here” syndrome again. Someone please end this monotomy! Oh yeah, Europe photos are waaay overdue but I really don’t have the time right now. Please excuse the slowness of my comments. I promise I’ll try to manage my time better and fit everything in my schedule… and maybe even a new layout.

The strangest, most terrifying thing happened today. It was like a scene in a movie- completely unreal. I was walking across the street with my friends. And let me say this now- NEVER JAYWALK! The crosswalks are there for a reason. I hear one of my friends scream out my other friend’s name and out of the blue, a car runs into my other friend. My friend rolls onto the hood of the car, breaks the windshield with her head, and rolls down onto the ground. I could not believe what I was seeing. Luckily she was still conscious and the cops came pretty quickly. An ambulance took her to the emergency room. We waited there for a couple hours, but she turned out to be fine. Her leg took the brunt of it. It was a good thing she turned around when she heard her name or the injuries could have been worse. It was absolutely horrifying to witness it. She’s home now and we have to wake her every three hours to make sure she doesn’t slip into a coma. =/ It’s so scary to think what could have happened. Or how this could have been prevented. If we left the apartment one minute earlier or one minute later, or if we crossed at another section of the street…

It was supposed to be a fun day. Onto happier thoughts… I saw the Sex and the City movie last weekend. Abso-fabu-tastic! It was so much funnier than the show. I won’t spoil it for anyone but Carrie gets her own Cinderella moment. So sweet!

One last thing- BARACK OBAMA 2008!! I’m not sure if it would be a good idea for Hilary to get the VP nom. It could result in a clash of two very strong personalities. But yes, so happy it’s Obama!
