it never ends... (AND help california win marriage equality)

yeah i am getting this feeling that i will never get better...

my hypochondria is showing >_<

but still

i'm sick of coughing

so last night i slacked off completely and talked to a friend online in japanese for two hours

a japanese friend

it was really nice

i was sooooo stressed out and so just relaxed for a while

today was kinda stressful; i'm really worried about my history paper...

we did tai chi outside this morning o_O

i didn't do any of my film reading but that's ok. i didn't need to have really to understand the lecture today and i've got a catch up schedule that takes the pressure off...

today we signed up for our group projects and i will be working on MGM...even tho i wanted to do RKO...

>_<

anyhow that project will entail a 5-7 page paper about some specific facet of that studio...iiii dunno

i don't even know my group members...

i decided to do away with the asian film series...there are enough films to see on campus (many of them even asian) and i'm friends with some people who want me to be president of the linguistics club and i want to put a lot of effort into that to make it a worthwhile group.

this weekend the PRIDE alliance is putting together a booth and stuff we're going to run all next week to promote the marriage equality bill. this is a big deal because if california makes same sex marriage legal it becomes a precedent in the country. Hopefully more states would join after that. Anyhow it's ridiculous because Schwarzenegger might veto it. He wants to go with the people tho, SO we're going to have a big event including even (apparently) media coverage. I dunno...high aspirations I guess but people say they have connections so we may make some news. Basically it will be education on the issue with encouragement to call the office (which is taking phone calls and e-mails from ANYWHERE not just california: 916-445-2841. push 2 and state your opinion on legislation, push 1 (gender-neutral marriage bill - Senate Bill 849) and push 1 to support) and sign a petition. we're also doing this thing called "A Show of Hands" as a visual representation. Supporters will either trace or pain stamp their hands on a big huge sheet of paper. We'll write a letter and get our opinion across...should be exciting. I really hope it goes through.

The other thing is that Fall PRIDE week and National Coming Out Week are only a few days after the day the issue is decided. It's either going to be really happy or really depressing : /

what else...

i dunno...

my mom sent me happy things :D

i guess that's all

have a good day ;p
