WHY AM I ONLINE?

Current Facebook status: "Inez literally cannot sleep anymore this week if she wants to get all of her work done. Ahaha."

Not an exaggeration (though the laugh might be sarcastic and/or desperately hopeless). But after tonight I'll have three portions finished (Chinese end-of-the-year nonsense (a total of five parts, are you kidding me?), Japanese test, and quartet recital). After that I'll have my Japanese Nationhood test (actually an essay, due Friday) and my Chinese Revolution test (on Friday afternoon) + research paper (due Friday faaaaaaaaack). And those are all going to be really enormously difficult to finish/be prepared for, so.

The quartet recital was actually last night. Instead of going in the usual black 'n' black, we decided to go with a "crayola" theme, so I wore purple (including the purple PJ pants that I got grass stains all over when I played Wink on Saturday), Halley wore blue, Evan (female) wore pink, and Katie wore orange. We were freaking adorable.

This time on top of Mendelssohn, we played "Tango Ballet" by Piazzolla. People seemed to like it because it was strange and different. (The entire recital was a conglomeration of strange and different music, including a percussion ensemble and a weird duet involving various blunt objects for two string basses.)

When we got out of the concert, it was raining something awful. I didn't care, though, so I walked slowly back to the apartment, wrung out my hair and clothes, and promptly fell asleep because I'M STUPID. Around 3am, I woke up, talked to Will (who'd just gotten home) for a bit, considered my workload for the rest of the week, and realized that I'm pretty close to screwed.

But! I can pull it off if I don't sleep. So. No more LJ for me until Friday at 5pm, which is the time by which I'll hopefully have triumphantly trounced my second semester of junior year.

GO NEZZIE GO GO GO.

(No comments. I am, as they say, keeping my eyes on the prize.)
