I got a call today that I don’t have to work tonight because one of the floors of Opaline is closed for renovation. So what am I doing instead? Going to another club? Watching television?

No. I’m studying.

I’m trying to place out of Elementary French for two reasons. One, it’s five days a week. And two, it’s eight credits that I don’t feel would be an effective usage of money; $1,301 times eight is $10,408. For Elementary French?! Please.

If I can’t place out of the class, hopefully they will let me take no language the first year and I can hire a private tutor. If all else fails, I guess I will suck it up and get it done. You have to play by the Ivies’ rules sometimes.

The sad thing is that I am enjoying learning French. It’s relaxing. Hopefully the ease I’m having with it so far is indicative of my future mastery.

Gwen and Gavin named their new baby boy Kingston. Kingston James McGregor Rossdale. King for short. I think that’s adorable. So old-school British and fancy.

I can’t believe the Playstation 3 is going to cost $600! SO glad I gave up videogames.
