Counting down the days now. Unfortunately, as I gleefully consider three months of freedom, my computer has decided to sh*t itself. Although it has been an extremely reliable machine for a year and a half, the CD drive recently broke down in the middle of burning a CD. The drive now reads and plays DVD's but will not recognize anything else. This means no games, no audio discs, no burning...you get the idea. While not a critical issue, it is a minor annoyance that could potentially be problematic. The best part is that with the warranty expired as of last November, a new drive is costly. The best price I've found so far is a hundred dollars, and the worst is two hundred and forty. So...I'll probably have to buy a new drive eventually. Ah well.
Everything else is looking pretty peachy in comparison...my grades, while not stellar, are turning out solid. Italian is consistently my worst subject, and I'll be glad to be done with it after next semester. The ironic thing is that I end up speaking better German when intoxicated than I do Italian when sober. Huh.
Got roped into working at the bookstore all afternoon yesterday. I didn't have any plans, and it was a good way to earn thirty bucks, so I can't complain too much.
Packing up to take stuff to Portland tomorrow. I've realized that despite the large number of cardboard boxes I've accumulated over the year, only a few of them are actually big enough to hold much. I have three blankets and a comforter that need to go in some sort of box, and I'll probably have to buy a rather large one at the bookstore tomorrow morning.
Again with the bookstore. On the positive side, we're clearing out old ARCs, which means I got three books to read. For free. It's a wonderful system.
Anyways...I should keep packing/studying/etcetera-ing. Whee!

What're the ARCs? Any good ones?
What model PC do you have? 100 seems like an awful lot.
