Happenings and thoughts.

Well, I should sleep. But no, Im bored and not tired at all. I should write my paper - I got only one page. I've been getting so easily distracted that is unbelievable.
Such a great mood swing. Last weekend I was so homesick, and this week I am giggly for the entire day, which feels great, but there's no productivity what so ever.
But tomorrow hopefully will be better. I have tons to do...And I cant wait till this week is over... February 2nd I am planning on some Coronas. Let's see.
PMS will be on its way on that weekend, so it will be interesting to keep living the mood swings. :D

Nothing else is really new. Christian and I were planning trips to Berlin and Lisbon, Jen and I to Florence and I was talking to Matt about Rome but it never came up again. I really wanted to take my mom to Rome, but the week she'll be here (Semana Santa in Spanish) Rome happens to be the #1 place to go - in other words - ridiculously expensive prices on the tickets and everything else.
Everyone is so stressed up that traveling is the last thing on their mind.

I've been reading American news. Heath Ledger died (sad - "10 things I hate about you" marked my adolescence with afternoons at my grandparent's with Juliana) and Hillary's presidential campaign is doing pre-tty well. In regards to that, I am quite happy.
However I have a comment to say.
I was reading the names of famous people and their donations to the democratic candidates, and what is very interesting is that every African American artist contributed to Obama.
Dont get me wrong. It would be great if the president of the US was a man from a minority and Obama is a great candidate in my opinion. But that's like every woman voting for Hillary!
At the end of it, voters should think about their country's issues, and their candidates abilities - not race or gender.

We all know how America is somewhat lead by these celebrities and how much what they say matters to everyone (Im not judging, I read celebrity gossip every day too!!!!)
And seeing all these African Americans voting for Obama sends out the wrong message - Kids my age are dying in this stupid war, and families are being lost. Gays couples can't be together legally and the dollar is going down.
Does the race or gender really matter at this point?!

Just a thought.

Other than that nothing. It's me going to bed with lovely plans to finish a paper.

Buenas noches,
