Yesterday I had a wonderful day pretty much just reading outside in the rain and relaxing after cleaning the house. Blue highways is nearly finished. only about 100 pages left to go. My full review will of course come at the end, but for now I can only continue to say I anejoy it, even if it has slowed down a little bit. Then it's onto the red rising series! though I may take an interim and read the communist manafesto before hand. I went ahead and did some follow up emails for professors and yay! dean fraga responded! It made me feel a lot better, I'll be sending him the grad school info today so hopefully that letter of reccomendation comes in soon! Still no word from Dr. Strand, I'll wait a few more days before sending a follow up on her though, since its only been a week. STILL NO WORD BACK FROM ANY JOBS THOUGH!! grahhh... Anyway, my drivers test is this thursday, which is both exciting and nerve wracking, but more exciting! Although I do feel pretty confident driving, I'm nervous about parking as that tends to be a weakness of mine. After that, I watched trolls world tour with my sibling, of which I have little to say on, but maintain that it is an enteraining enough movie to enjoy it. Speaking on the communist manafesto, my sibling was reading a little today, and wow they are a fierce little capitalist, they veihmently do NOT think communism works and cannot work ever, and that capitalism is the most stable practice. I guess they know where they stand I suppose haha, at 19 I was also pretty extreme about my dislike of fringe politics, so I get it. Anyway, after all that I had a good time parying with my friends James Justin and Jacob, we played poker n trouble and jackbox! I lost every game. all around was a great time. I'm always happy when I get another excuse to use the game room, board games are actually truely just so fun. a very good feeling day for sure.
