well, i'm experiencing problems with my tooth again. it looks like i'm either going to have to undergo another root canal or they're going to remove the tooth altogether. i am trying not to imagine the pain it will entail although i am grateful that it won't be as terrible as last year. at least my anxiety has subsided...these last few weeks i was waiting for the next problem to arise, life was going too well...i didn't trust it. my mom also told me last week that the lump they removed from my aunt's mouth was cancer and they have no idea where it spread from. the outcome is grim and it makes me wonder how much more their family can endure. i don't feel like thinking about it right now...
i have an interview with the alice campbell alumni center in urbana on monday so, hopefully that goes well. i'm not expecting anything to come of it. i seem to have a problem with finding jobs. maybe it's me. (ha ya think?)
i had an exam in sex&gender (comm 356) yesterday and i think i did quite well on it. the entire class basically analyzes and criticizes the presentation of women in the media. we're reading a book entitled "bitchfest" which is a collection of articles taken from the magazine (a magazine on cultural criticism). i started reading the first chapter right when i bought it and i couldn't put it down.
i'm feeling a little bit more encouraged about speaking in class. this is the first year that i feel i actually have legitimate knowledge to share in discussions. in addition to that, i find that the responses of my classmates are not always very intelligent or even correct, thus, i am prone to share my opinion more willingly. i'd say it's going to be a decent semester.
sweeter dreams.
