Close Call

[midori]

So I'm driving to school like usual. The window's down (well, halfway down because if it goes any lower it gets stuck and that's a whole 'nother problem) and the wind is breezily breezin' my sweaty neck. I'm speeding by eight miles but it's okay 'cause I never see any cops on the way to class. Or so I thought because in the corner of my eye I spot the police car. Except it's too late to notice because in a few seconds I will be passing this small side road the cop car is parked. I decelerate but it's no use. It's my time. I hope the officer is nice..

Then out of nowhere this white SUV (which evidently did not notice the sneakily hidden cop) comes zooming past me in the next lane, the police car pulls out, the siren's on and they're on the side of the road. Any other time I might have been like, "Ha-ha! Sucker!" but I was too relieved and recovering from my near-ticket incident.

Anyway, miracles really do sometimes happen.


As of today my summer class is over! WHOO. I feel like most of my entries are written right after a semester is over. Shows how sparse they are, yeesh. If anyone is curious, I was taking Human Anatomy & Physiology where I got counted off for writing Ejaculation Duct instead of Ejaculatory Duct. ..Yeah.

I have not even listened to Beautiful World even though I have it. I know I know, you may shoot me now.

Speaking of things I've bought, I also picked these up at Borders because they're officially shutting down. I'm on my second read-through of THG, and I still love it. As for the upcoming movie? IS IT MARCH 23RD YET. Reading through the interviews, I absolutely approve of the cast.

And guys, if you have not read the first two books of The Kingkiller Chronicle (The Name of the Wind & The Wise Man's Fear) you are missing out. It is epic fantasy in writing and in length - as in it is freakishly long but I wish it was longer. It makes me laugh in tears and then spouts beautiful poetry, even though the main character hates poetry and poets, ha. Kvothe plays the lute - the LUTE. Innkeeper Kote gives me Nino vibes, seriously. Also, Patrick Rothfuss is a hilarious person in general; I follow his blog, lol. ANYWAY. Read it and I will too. It's next on my re-reading list anyway.

Man, I really need to stop with these 'anyway's.

Oh no, if anything I am the worse friend for not being around LJ enough to talk to you! And I miss you lots too Nicole. Oh! I think I've seen your name around Jess's FB? If it's cool with you I'd love to be friends with you there; might be easier to contact each other. :)
