Quietness in the Bridge House

Hey
So my week of papers begins tomorrow, er later this morning since it is 1am. I actually spent all day working on my 18th century paper, but I need to go to the library, because I need a copy of The Odyssey, the Sparknotes copy is not cutting it. The translation is not good. It is so hard, I know what I want to say, but I can't say it, so I just looked for quotes, and read more about the authors I really do not like. My paper is on the mock epic, and I'm using Pope, Fielding and the great Homer. I had to write about Homer, who would pass up a chance to talk about Odysseus???

Um so since the last time I wrote, it's been a good time. We had Farewell Drinks on Friday, and Philip ate lunch with us! I love Philip! So I said good bye to my friends from classes, I'm going to miss them. That night I also went out with Jenna, Cassie, Vern, Harry, Nick, Alex, and some other kids. Harry and I played Spook for like more than an hour. You have three coins in your hand behind your back, your other hand is out in front with how many coins you want, and you have to guess how many coins there are between the two of you. I killed Harry. I also had somewhat of my hockey face on, it was so funny. We talked a lot too, and he made a Harry Potter reference, about when he came out of the bathroom there were so many doors he had no idea which one led back upstairs, and he thought he was in the big hallway of just doors in HP5. I got the reference. Jenna scared all of us though with her conversation with some kid about computer games. She won the geeky award that night. I said I liked Oregon Trail... So yeah I had to say good bye to more people... I no longer have friends outside the Bridge House. Well okay I have Jenna.

So on Saturday Cassie left for Ireland, she went by herself. Amaya left today for the States, Martin went home last night, and then Baz left today. And then there was two. Kathleen leaves wicked early Thursday morning, but by that time Cassie will be home, but away a lot because her father will be here. So it will just be me. Sad.

Kathleen and I watched Robin Hood today... HAHAH! We love Robin Hood, it is a little corny sometimes, but the guy who plays Robin Hood makes it alright. We watched it on the computer because it's on the TV right now, but like 10 episodes into it. But we could only watch one episode because the second episode wasn't up. So sad. But we only pizza and celebrated the two of us alone in the Bridge House... well it made sense to us.

Later we watched Driving Lessons with Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) and Julie Waters (Mrs. Weasley), and it was so good. The beginning was weird, and I was scared but once Julie Waters entered, it was so good. Rupert Grint wasn't his usual Ron self at all, it was a little weird, but he was good.

Wow, what an interesting post, unfortunately it's been calm around here, starting to do a lot of work for my papers, tomorrow I start living in the library.

Oh well, I'm going back to the Avalanche game. I think the Avs want to lose tonight, Theodore is in the net... sigh. I wish they would put in Budaj, but since he's played the last few nights I guess they thought they would give him a rest. Not that Budaj is the best goalie in the league, but he's better than Theodore. Sometimes, well okay, all the time I wish Patrick Roy was immortal and would just play forever. The Avs haven't had a good goalie since he retired.
