this weekend is packed. i think my schedule of events shapes up as follows: student dance concert this afternoon (sorelle and joc are performing); boy meets tractor improv comedy this evening; shabbes dinner at ruach as prepared by becca — she’s slaving off five hot stoves as we speak; why war? party tonite. tomorrow: rehearsal in the morning; night of scenes in the evening. sunday: rehearsal til 4; meeting w/ swattiebloggers?; co|mo at 8. in between all that i have to write a story or a play; a short paper; a long paper; and start studying for finals.
i also have to get all my denmark stuff done, including making a last-minute snap decision: do i want to live, as previously stated, in a dorm with international and danish students or with a family? in the dorm, which functions as a co-op, i’d have my own room and bathroom and share a kitchen w/ 14 other folks. w/ a family, i wouldn’t have to take care of my own food needs (that’s a big issue as appliances other than toaster, fridge, and microwave intimidate me to the point of imbecility.) that’s … pretty much the only plus other than built in company. in a house with other people, assumedly, i won’t feel as totally alone as i assume i will, at least initially, by myself in a dorm.
it’d help so much if i were organized. ah well.
the stress is beginning to show on people; people are starting to fray. so far i’m doing all right in keeping things in perspective, i think. i don’t feel overwhelmed.
